We really enjoyed hiking the roads on the hills behind the cottage. We had amazing views from them. Also, the road that leads to the bay's peninsula - beautiful walk up the peninsula. A little cheese factory where they sell some meats, cheeses, honey, spreads, crackers etc is only a couple hundred feet down the road. The flower gardens right there by and around the cottage are terrific!

    The journey over the hill is spectacular with the reward of a beautiful village at the end to relax and enjoy your surroundings - or get active if that's your thing - with great food options for everyone. Just do it, get yourself over to Akaroa!

    As it was winter it was quieter than in summer and we found this relaxing, calm, restful and were calmed by the experience. We loved being able to walk around the central part of Akaroa. We ate at several places and found good variety and quality of food. Loved the boat out to the dolphins and the Giants House especially. Also enjoyed the museum, lighthouse and Barrys Bay Cheeses.

    I can't believe we have not been to Akaroa before. Such a well kept secret. A quaint town with lovely shops to browse. Beautiful waterfront to stroll along and jetties to explore. Fabulous views from every spot. Highly recommend including a stop in Akaroa in any road trip planning.

    The best holiday place in New Zealand. I have stayed in many places in and around Akaroa. Such a feeling of peace.plenty of cafes and fish and chips were a "must". It's a place where walking is great.

    Akaroa is always beautiful whatever the weather but we were extremely lucky to have glorious sunshine throughout our short stay. The views are wonderful and the possibility of getting out on a boat are great. The meal we had was okay at one of the pubs but many places were closed due to it being Anzac Day. Bought some amazing croissants at the bakery so breakfast was delicious!

    The cottage was in a perfect location, very clean and has everything you need. I really like all the attention to details and how you can even warm yourselves up by the fireplace when it gets a bit cold at night. I will definitely choose this place again when I visit Akaroa in the future! Owner was also very friendly and nice. :)

    Sits well in Akaroa with all aspects. This property was top of the tree compared with the booking of Cute Cottage in Cooks Beach as we are seeking a rebate on that booking due to poor facilities as detailed in our comments already posted.
