Nature eco lodge holiday rentals in Canterbury

We loved staying with Helen at the Bealey eco lodge. The setting is breathtaking and Helen’s cosy lodge was the perfect place to explore the area from. Helen is a super friendly host with a remarkable knowledge of the region. We’d recommend this stay for anyone traveling through the area looking for an off-grid experience

We loved our stay at The Barn Killin! Hugh and Dwayne were wonderful, welcoming hosts. Highly recommend opting for dinner at the house, as well - it was delicious! Lake Ohau is beautiful and peaceful, and it was a perfect place to stop for a night. Hopefully we will be able to make it back again someday!

A really nice place to hang around. Geoff was extremely accommodating and responsive in communication and our request.

On what was a miserably wet day, I arrived at the motel around noon, hours before check-in time to find my room ready, and welcoming - the motel is basic, but totally fine for a night or two, with a lovely cafe and store just a few minutes walk

Cath's motel is very well-kept and comfortable. Its in a classic small W Coast town, where you are likely to meet friendly locals and get a taste of the real lifestyle of this area.

Very nice place to stay if you want your accommodation near Franz Joseph. I had booked my Heli ride so want to stay close for any reschedules. This motel is very good with very big washroom. Enjoyed my tea in the room

Enjoyed the quietness even with a f ull house of people staying. Well maintained and very clean with a very good kitchen. Need to bring food with you as not a town with restaurants and supermarket but being local it wasnt an issue. A good spot over winter with curling and iceskating facilities.

Cathy's place was perfect for our one night stay. She was kind enough to offer us an upgrade due to a cancellation, which we very much appreciated. The unit was very spacious, clean and very well equipped with everything we needed. It was well heated and the bed was very comfortable. We would recommend a stay at Cathy's place - it certainly met our expectations as a great place to relax after a full day of exploring.

Perfect spot to stay whilst attending a wedding at the Lodge.

Can't wait to come back.

Cathy’s Airbnb is lovely. Quiet, very comfortable and very well set up. We only stayed two nights but easily could’ve stayed longer, lots to see and do in this beautiful region. Easy to fix an easy “skillet supper” and breakfast . Loved sitting out on the front porch after we arrived, and watch the sunset. Bed is extremely comfortable made with soft linens and a cozy comforter which made for a very good night’s rest. I highly recommend Cathy’s Airbnb!

Fabulous place to stay the night between Christchurch and Queenstown. Judy was so accommodating and the house was warm and comfy. Kids loved seeing the horses and playing with the beautiful dog. Highly recommended.

This hostel was an amazing little getaway nestled in the mountains. The views were immaculate, and I enjoyed every second. Check-in was easy as there was staff waiting for me, and I had a room to myself, which was pleasantly surprising for the price. There was a great shared kitchen and common space. The only thing I would say would be to be careful of weather as 3 mile road to get there was gravel and looks like it could get difficult to traverse with extreme weather. Hope to get back here at some point!
