Secluded Stream Side Bungalow

Only 90 minutes from Christchurch you will find this secluded property nestled between the old school and architecturally renowned St Andrews Church. The property is situated four kilometers from the beach, this stream side bungalow provides a relaxing break away.

You are twenty minutes from Akaroa which has a number of amenities. You are a short distance from a number of walks if you want to explore the Peninsular or simply relax and enjoy the native Kereru and Fantail that inhabit the surrounding trees.

For the children there is a stream at the back of the property which will keep them entertained for hours. The property is fenced although for those intent on escaping it is not fully secure.

The property is minutes from the beach and domain that contains tennis court, kids play ground, flying fox, basketball hoop and rope swing. The beach is safe for kids and there is a river at the southern end of the beach which is a perfect place to play and explore. Seals can often be seen playing around the rocks and Dolphins are often spotted in the bay.

The house has been renovated and has been tastefully decorated. This is an ideal destination for families and couples looking for a relaxing get away.

NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own towels and sheets, tee towels etc

The family bach is a lovely place to stay, albeit chilly in winter,it was very snug.
The bach was comfortable, and well appointed, and Andrew was most helpful. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay.

Lovely bach in peaceful surroundings
The house is cosy and inviting with a nice big garden. We enjoyed watching all the different birds through the windows. We love Le Bons (husband and I got married on the beach there 5 years ago) but it's a bit of a trek from Christchurch so it was wonderful to stay for the weekend and we would love to stay at this Bach again sometime.

Perfect holiday home and trip away
Super impressed by the gorgeous home in Le Bons Bay, for the price the house is very beautifully set up with everything you need - the fire place was the highlight for us!! It’s just a 25 min drive to Akaroa and close to many areas on the peninsula to explore, Le Bons Bay is a lovely beach area. Comfy beds, all self service and self cleaning etc which is expected at this low rate. And very important to us to bring our dog on holiday so this ticked all boxes. Thank you very much for the stay! Also, I had the best sleep I’ve had in a long time!

Hidden Gem
Property was well equipped with everything that anyone would need. Property matched the pics, the birdlife in the morning was music to our ears, was so good to get away from the city life of Christchurch to the peace and quiet of Streamside. Was close to Akaroa and Le Bons Bay beach. Wish we stayed longer.
