Property info

Nestled in amongst native New Zealand bush, this two bedroom cottage captures the essence of the stunning Akaroa scenery with an incredible view out over Akaroa Harbour, the sounds of the birds singing and privacy to really help you unwind from the minute you arrive. Wake up and wander out onto the patio from the lounge or the master bedroom to take in the fresh South Island air. Enjoy the cosy living area made for easy, laid-back holiday living and fitted with all the essentials you might need on your trip and cleaning included in your nightly rate. In Winter, pour yourself a glass of wine, turn on the fire and find a movie to watch with SKY TV or watch a variety of DVD's for free on hand. There is also a limited supply of milk, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and sugar to help you settle in.

Neighborhood info

Or take a scenic cruise around Akaroa Harbour, host to amazing sea mammals and bird life, including the worlds smallest and rarest dolphins, the Hector's dolphin, New Zealand fur seals and White-flippered penguins. Everything you need for a real Akaroa escape awaits at Cherrywood Cottage.
