Great location bus from the airport dropped us at the door. Heating already on when we areived which was great as it was cold outside. Always happy staying here
Great house in a perfect location for our family visit to Christchurch, many thoughtful touches were greatly appreciated. Would definitely stay again if in Christchurch.

Easily accessible to the city, airport and surrounds

Great place to stay when away from home, will definitely be back next visit to Chch.
Loved our stay the accommodation was perfect, immaculately presented, awesome beds with the best sheets, highly recommend a stay here. Not far from the airport or city🙂
We came to Christchurch for 5 nights to watch a golf tournament. The location was great, the place is spacious, comfortable and Rose set it up so that we could have the 2 singles as a king in the bigger bedroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hopefully we will return next time we’re in Christchurch.
Very nice property well presented and owners easy to deal with. Location great short ride from the airport and public transport in the doorstep. Great shops near by walling distance to get your morning coffee fix. Warm and comfortable
Perfection. I'm a fairly heavy user of hotel chains, apartment rentals, and other forms of accomodations, and it's been a true delight to stay here for my Christchurch visit this week. Everything was amazing. Everything was lovely - even the rain and hail, seemed to make the stay more pleasant in this place.
This property was perfect for our needs. It was a haven to come home to, after busy days sight-seeing. It is very comfortable, spacious and well equipped, and we appreciated the little extras that were provided. We were able to easily access the city each day. We would definitely stay here again.
We had a good week in Christchurch and it was great to have this clean, warm, comfortable and well equipped home as our base. Rose is very helpful and responsive. Second time staying in Strowan and would definitely return.

lovely property. ... just as advertised
The house was clean, modern and very well equipped. The hosts could not have been nicer and went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed both the house and the city. Highly recommend this property.

We have stayed in many places but this one tops them all. Warm, well stocked with things you would need for your stay along with extras like a cupboard full of toys, soft comfy beds, Netflix, Sky, wifi, toiletries etc etc. Highly recommended. Great value. Gracious hosts.
Family stay for a week. Walking distance to local shopping area for essentials. Short drive to central city. House was very good. Modern, clean, well appointed, warm. The two single beds for our teenagers was an appreciated feature. Prompt and easy comms with the host. Would recommend and will be returning. thanks

Beautiful house in a great location, this property has it all !
We spent almost a week here and had a very enjoyable stay, the location is perfect. Everything you could possibly need was here and more. We were pleasantly surprised by all the little extra things that were included, like Body Wash and Shampoo in the bathroom, to all of the condiments, the breakfast cereals, tea, etc in the kitchen. All those little things you tend to forget were here, really making this a home away from home. We will definitely be coming back here on our next trip to New Zealand.
Traffic noise irritating.
Guest folder would be good.
Local amenities etc
Great location.

About the host
Hosted by Rose Duncan
I am now living my dream of providing stylish comfortable home away from home accomodation to travellers. Being a traveller myself, I can appreciate that clean comfortable accomodation with great internet access is absolutely paramount to the enjoyment of your stay. Then to fall into a lovely comfy bed after a busy day gets you well rested to do it all again tomorrow! Along with my husband Graeme, we enjoy getting our home prepared for guests arrival. We are both avid readers, enjoy cycling and walking and spending time with our grown-up family and grandchildren.
