BOND ESTATE LUXURY ACCOMMODATION

Christchurch

Featuring a garden, private pool and garden views, BOND ESTATE LUXURY ACCOMMODATION is set in Christchurch. This 5-star holiday home features a spa experience, with its hot tub and indoor pool.

P
Paul Ibbotson
From
United Kingdom
My extended family stayed for a week at the Bond Estate over the Christmas 2023 period and we had the most marvellous, wonderful stay imaginable, My daughter got married a few miles away and we used the place a venue to get ready and have photographs taken; it was magical. Everything was perfect, from the fantastic, exotic swimming pool and jacuzzi to the outstanding full-on Bar-B-Que. The kitchen was incredibly well appointed and the coffee machine was a real luxury. The place was so well equipped that we comfortably hosted her new in-laws for a full on good, old fashioned English Christmas Dinner. The GIANT projector screen and selection of movies was an absolute delight, (Love Actually on Christmas day has never looked so good), the Tennis court was brand new and saw many a hotly contested rally. (You CAN be serious !!) Tracy (the facility manager) was always available; discreet yet accommodating in every way and a real plus for the premises. (Shout out for Shaun and Rhys the resident friendly Shoats, (Google it ! )) If you are thinking of staying on the outskirts of Christchurch and you want a little luxury in your life then you need look no further than the Bond Estate... we will CERTAINLY be returning.

Dyers House is one of Christchurch's best kept secrets. Luxurious rooms and lounge, fabulous views of the city and mountains beyond, pretty garden, a short walk to good restaurants and close to town. Hosts Barry and Angie were extremely helpful and made us feel very much at home. And a fabulous breakfast to make it really stand out.

    This is a nice hotel but not 5 stars. We only stayed a night. Staff were very friendly and location good but I don’t think worth the money
