What a fabulous stay, everything was perfect! Upon arrival, we were welcomed by Tuti and Peter who are superb hosts. The villa was quiet, private, clean, spacious and very comfortable. All rooms are presented to a very high standard with a touch of luxury. This place has been thoughtfully setup, it had everything we needed for our stay and more we were very impressed! Loads of amenities, toiletry items, cooking supplies, variety of board games, books and DVDs, they truly have thought of everything! We were very fortunate with the weather during our stay as well, the view of the mountains were absolutely breathtaking and did not disappoint. Thank you Peter and Tuti for your lovely hospitality, for going above and beyond. We hope that we will be lucky enough to come back to your slice of paradise in the future.

That it was very clean, spacious and had amazingly comfortable beds. Also table tennis was an unexpected bonus - we would have stayed longer if had known that was available!

Brilliant location and great views, access to the beach was easy - just through a gate, just had to cross the train tracks! luckily not a busy track :-) House was an upside down configuration which was also great for suitcase location....

We arrived to Cubby House Stay after 2 weeks at a family wedding in NZ. Visitors from the UK we felt emotional having just said goodbye to family to travel back down to Christchurch airport. We stayed at Cubby House stay for 2 nights to break up our journey and wow what a hidden gem. We booked 2 nights because other reviews had said it is a must to stay more than 1 night. We second that. We would even suggest staying 3 nights + if you can. It is a tranquil retreat. A home from home. We instantly felt comforted and at home. Leanne & Richard are the nicest people you could meet, nothing was too much trouble or too much to ask. We didn’t want for anything. The cubby house was supplied with absolutely everything you could possibly need and more. Food supplies so much so we didn’t have to go to a shop whilst there. Fresh hen eggs from the chickens. Toys galore for our 10 month old to keep her entertained, high chair, safety gate, every thing you’d need at home for a baby. For us the comfiest bed that was sprayed with lavender pillow spray to help us relax & unwind. We had the best nights sleep we’d had for nearly 3 weeks! It didn’t feel like being in a hotel bed with hotel pillows, it felt like sleeping at home. The biggest comfiest sofa you sink into to watch a movie. We had breakfast al fresco. The views were breath taking, we could see the whole coast line, at night the stars lit up the night sky, we’d wake to bird song, & Brian the peacock perched on the balcony to wish us good morning & the goats and freckle the pig would race down the side of his fence to greet us excitedly, Shelly and Mabel the ducks too. As we’d drive in and out the turkeys hoppy and Trevor would greet us on the driveway. Leanne & Richard kindly took us on a full tour of the place and introduced us to all the animals which our daughter absolutely loved! It was great fun & I’ve never seen a cow so big as Jesus the giant 6ft + cow. You honestly couldn’t beat this place.
