Frequently asked questions
About the host
Your host
I live in Christchurch and I'm kept busy by my four girls 12 and under.
Why they chose this property
We'd wanted a house in Hanmer for a long time, to make memories with our four girls and their grandparents, and we were recently able to make this dream happen. Because we have busy lives in Christchurch, we don't get to Hanmer as much as we'd like, so we wanted others to enjoy our special holiday home when we're not able to.
What makes this property unique
Acheron House has amazing views out towards Mount Isobel, and is nestled next to Conical Hill. The wrap-around deck puts you at tree level, and is a lovely spot to relax and soak in the views and birdsong.
