About this Holiday House

1.3km from Terrace Downs Golf Resort, close to Rakaia River and Lake Coleridge for fishing, 45 minutes to get to Mt Hutt skifield, close to many other activities. Great family holiday home accommodation or for a weekend break for two (only 1 hour from Christchurch). A two bedroom cottage which sleeps six (maximum), it is fully self contained and well equipped, with stunning views of Mount Hutt and the surrounding hills. It is off the road so is private and quiet other than farm activities nearby. Very sunny and warm, with a large fenced lawn area, sand pit, and plenty of room to park (including boats), car port for car, log fire for winter heating (wood supplied). Other close by activities include jet boating, fishing, ballooning, horse riding, and Methven village all within 20 minutes. Please note - sorry but no pets as the cottage is situated in the middle of a working farm. Check out our Facebook page.

Wow, what a lovely cottage. Located on Benlea Station, this cottage is well set up for a lovely stay. The owners, Cathie and Sam are delightful, both are awesome to chat with and more than willing to provide the best experience possible. The view from the deck is to die for - straight up into the back of Mt Hutt. Accessibility to other areas such as Lake Coleridge and the Rakaia River is very easy and worth the trip. And, if you do not feel like cooking, The Terrace Downs Fable restaurant is a 3-minute drive away and they serve delightful meals throughout the day. I highly recommend this cottage!
