Tony and Maree try hard to make their guests feel welcome in a beautiful house in the Art area of town. Its location could not be better to explore Christchurch. When the city is back in action to accept visitors then this is the place to go.

An ideal location close to the Botanical Gardens, tramway, centre, restaurants, arts centre and museum.

The location couldn't be better, right opposite the arts centre and a 5-minute walk from the heart of the city, and hosts Maree Ritchie and Tony Taylor (and their 2 very important poodles Joe and Peggy)...
