We booked a bushview cottage and that is exactly what we had, a view of the bush only. In the description, printed on the lodging voucher, it stated we would have, "a view of the ocean and the mountains..". When I pointed this out, I was told that we got what we paid for and no adjustment would be made.... More

We stayed in a bushview cottage for 2 nights during our short stay in Akaroa. Akaroa is a charming town and was a nice stop for us between Twizel and Nelson. The cottage was very nice.

My husband and I stayed here for one night as part of a trip to Akaroa to celebrate his birthday. Our cottage (bush view) was clean and comfortable but did not live up to the photos on the website.

These beautiful cottages are set in the most scenic location, a short walk out of Akaroa. Megan and Kyle were so hospitable during our stay - would stay there again in a heartbeat.
