We loved Jasmine and Michael’s place. A large gorgeous garden setting and a beautiful house. The property is so quiet as the house is a good distance from the road. Jasmine and Michael are fantastic caring hosts nothing is a problem,beautiful breakfasts comfortable bed and spotless bathrooms. Hopefully we we will go to Christchurch in the near future and be able to stay again.

It was different to what we’re used to ie: outdoor shower but absolutely great experience. Loved the lavender garden, the gorgeous chooks and actually it was all beautiful. We should have stayed 2 nights! One night just wasn’t enough to take in everything.

The uniqueness and well thought of little things such as a wee hair ties draw, wireless phone chargers on either side of the bed, plushy robs and umbrella. Everything you need is there and even things you don’t think of packing until you need them. Thankyou so much for providing a serene space.

We absolutely loved this place - spacious, comfortable, beautifully set out and decorated including a cosy log burner fired up and ready for arrival. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and the accommodation was ideally situated away from the main town centre but easy to find and not far off the main route, within easy reach of restaurants, supermarkets and attractions - perfectly peaceful and relaxing. Would and should have stayed longer - a real gem :)

Karen was such a sweet heart during our entire stay. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was homemade and we enjoyed it very much. The farm tour was so much fun! Though it was short one night stay, we had a very memorable time on the farm and would love to return again in the future :)

Loved the quirkiness of the place. Best nights sleep in 12 days! Beds are comfy. Hot shower with great pressure. Kevin has thought of everything & even had egg cups in the rustic kitchen for us to eat our dippy eggs for breakfast- fresh off the farm.

It’s a very cool place and I would go back one day. It looks like it’s on a horse farm and has a western feel to it.

We have really enjoyed sitting by the open fire, while the weather outside was getting a bit nasty. Also we have really appreciated the atmosphere of the farm stay, knowing it’s for real with its family history.

Beautiful barn style guest suite! From the bed you have views of the mountains, the sea, the cows and the sunrise 😊 Indigo and Bonnie were both very friendly and showed us around, room was nicely kitted out! Property is very quiet and serene and not too far from city centre.

We wanted a farm stay and we got that and more. The Cottage is really big and the owners live just further along the track. They're so very friendly and our tour of the farm was simply brilliant.

We stayed 2 nights at Silverstream upon arrival at Christchurch. We had fun feeding the Alpacas and the whole place feels quaint and relaxing. Kit who is the owner of this entire property is also very friendly. We were here during the winter season and we’re glad to learn that the beds were equipped with warmers to make our night rest a more comfortable one. A good Farmstay for families with young children.

Dave was very friendly and interesting and passed on his local knowledge about supermarkets and beaches. I liked that it was a farm stay, and very peaceful, so I had the best nights sleep since I arrived in New Zealand.
