Sunny, modern, private hilltop holiday home | House in Akaroa
3 Bedroom House in Akaroa
This large modern home has views, sunshine and privacy, and enough space for a couple to spread out, or to accommodate two families with up to four children. It’s at the top of the lane, above all the neighbours, facing north with great views over Grehan Valley. The house adjoins a forested reserve which has walking tracks to town (seven minutes) and plenty of native birds, which you see almost at treetop level from the deck. Kereru perch on the railing or roof, and you can wake to a dawn chorus of bellbirds. You are sheltered from any noise from town, despite being so close to it.
The house has a main bedroom with ensuite (shower, vanity, toilet), two other bedrooms, a full bathroom (bath, shower, vanity), and a second separate toilet. This means the house can work well for two families with up to four kids in total. The kitchen has a full oven, microwave, and a wide range of pots, pans, spices etc. There’s a gas barbecue to use on the deck. The main dining table seats 6 but there is a second table and extra chairs that can be used. The separate laundry has a new front loading washing machine.
There’s a large flat screen TV with a SmartVu chromecast dongle which gives the usual Freeview channels, and can cast from your devices. There's free unlimited wifi at good speeds (up to 150 Mbits/sec). Also very good cellphone reception.
Bear in mind there are steps up to the house, so small children will need to be watched outside. There’s parking for two cars, but no room for boat trailers.
The check-in time is 3pm. If there is nobody staying the previous night, by arrangement a few days before arrival, we may be able to arrange earlier check-in.
The pricing includes a base rate per night (for 2 people), plus $15/night for each extra person, plus a cleaning fee ($70 per stay). Bookabach also add a charge (covers website and some GST). The price assumes people bring their own linen and towels (old-style kiwi bach). There is an option to hire linen at an extra cost of $50 per booking. For that, when booking send me a message (through the system) asking for linen, and say which beds you need made up. I can then revise the quote to add the linen fee. If any complications, please just ask!
