A fab overnight stay for myself & my 2 dogs. Modern and cozy with everything we needed and lovely thoughtful touches. Will definitely stay again. Sarita is a lovely friendly host, Many thanks
Comfortable with quality furnishings and delightful personal touches. We were made to feel very welcome by the host who went above and beyond to make us comfortable.
This was such a lovely place to stop off and bring our dogs and cats on our travel from Dunedin to Wellington. The owners were very lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. They also gave very detailed instructions on how to get there and get in, which made the check in and out process very easy. We only stayed for one night but would definitely stay again!
We wanted a place outside the Christchurch for our last night in New Zealand. The cottage was just perfect. It was had everything we needed. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Willow cottage had everything we could possibly need and we appreciated being able to bring our little poodle who was made to feel welcome with the provision of fencing, toys and so on to make our stay a relaxed one. Owners expectations were clearly outlined and we hope we met them all!
This is a spacious property with everything you could possibly need on holiday. It was spotlessly clean and all appliances were in full working order. We were greeted by the owner and everything about the house was explained. We were even introduced to the two pet pigs! We are already looking forward to our next visit
Sarita was so helpful and the cottage was a breath of fresh air, we were able to take our Dog and she enjoyed running around the enclosed garden, the grounds are beautiful and well kept, we couldn’t have asked for a Bree place to stay on our short city break, if you’re a couple or a small family with a pet I would highly recommend getting in touch with Sarita and getting yourself booked in 10/10

Superbe cottage, magnifiquement pensé et aménagé. Très confortable (livres sur place très intéressants!), hôte très sympathique et situé dans un lieu calme. Les alpagas et les animaux de la propriété sont adorables. A recommander pour visiter Christchurch et la péninsule de Banks!
What a delight! We arrived to a gorgeous cottage, quaint but at the same time modern. There were special touches like some afternoon tea and fresh flowers which we really appreciated. The owners were friendly and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend this property, Thank you so much :)

We loved our stay. The cottage was immaculate, beautifully decorated and it had everything we needed and more for a 3 night stay. Sarita was the perfect host communicating extremely well and making sure we had everything we needed. Close to Christchurch but in a rural setting. We will be back.
The little cottage/tiny house was perfect for us! We have had a great time in Lincoln. It had all the things we needed to have a great stay. Thanks Sarita!
Wow! What a lovely place to stay for a few nights. Everything you need including really good cooking facilities. Beautiful peaceful spot with very quiet road for dog walking and proximity to all the facilities a small town provides. Host was lovely, couldn’t have made us feel more welcome. Will definitely be back for a stay if we visit Christchurch again.
