The perfect getaway, ocean front property close to Christchurch. Come and enjoy the views, have a winery lunch in Waipara then continue to this amazing location, relax in the spa overlooking the ocean. Light the fire and settle in for an extremely special short break in this beautiful kiwi bach. Fully equipped with everything you need. Take a moment from your busy life to slow down and enjoy the peace with a long beach walk and then rest your muscles while sipping on a wine in the spa.
Two bedrooms both with queen beds and brand new very comfortable beds. The second bedroom also has a king single bed (bunk, queen on bottom and king single on top)
There is a full kitchen with everything you need to cook a gourmet dinner or simply prepare a deluxe cheese platter. The bathroom has views of the ocean and a lovely shower with gas hot-water. There is a fire and several heaters in the house. The deck is huge and at the end is a brand new spa, heated and ready to go. There is parking for three cars.
There is no shop in Motunau so you will need to bring your supplies with you. Amberley is on your way from Christchurch and it has a countdown, if you are coming from the north then Cheviot has the supermarket there. Both towns are 30 mins from the property. If you feel like not cooking then you have the Greta valley tavern 15mins away and if you call ahead they do have a courtesy coach in case you want to have a few drinks.
On the way from Christchurch you have the fantastic options of:
Pegasus bay winery and pantry
Waipara hills winery
Greystone winery and restaurant
Black estate
Waipara estate winery and restaurant
Fossil point cafe
Greta valley tavern
