Friendly and welcoming host. Very accommodating and good at providing interesting things to see and do in the area. Lovely, peaceful garden perfect for relaxing after a full day exploring Christchurch. All in all, a great place to stay while visiting Christchurch.
Enjoyed the stay. The owners were good with information about christchurch. Bath was nice. A few more room details ie. Water jug and glass would be appreciated. The social breakfast was a highlight. Recommend
Great stay overall, very comfortable, enjoyed the social breakfasts, Chet and Steve were very hospitable and full of knowledge about the surrounding area, ready and willing to answer any questions and give suggestions for things to do.
Steve was a fantastic host! Very easy to talk with and gave great travel tips in the area. The room was clean and comfortable. It wasnât a very far drive to get to the city center, and there are a lot of good food options nearby. Would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Christchurch
Steve was very friendly and helpful got sime good info about the area.
The breakfast was very tasty as much toast and local jams as you wanted.
Left before breakfast but Steve left us Cereals, Yoghurt and Fruit out in the kitchen area which we have not found anywhere else so gratefully appreciated.
We are using buses so used Uber to get to Trans Alpine train station.
Christchurch City centre is not to far to walk and the tramways are a must if you want to know about the city and the earthquakes with rebuilding.
Nice property. Very quaint heritage home. Liked the hosts and breakfast. Located close to the CBD, with an uber trip to the CBD costing about $11 (or a half hour walk if you prefer). The shared bathroom is a bit inconvenient for the price but otherwise good.
Friendly hosts! Great continental breakfast with Gluten free options available and fresh fruit from the garden! Comfortable bed and we had the on suite shower room which had everything you would need. Close to lots of shops and places to eat! Plenty on road parking in safe street!
Steve and Chet have created a charming and comfortable space for their guests. I stayed for 6 nights and explored Christchurch and the South Island by taking day trips. Steve and Chet were very helpful with suggestions and answering my many questions. There place is within walkable distance to the city center and close to public transportation. Highly recommend Designer Cottages B&B
A quirky little place, very comfortable, did not get chance to try the breakfast owing to an early departure, but fruit, yoghurt and cereals left out for us
