Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Castle Hill

Great hosts. Awesome property conveniently close to the hot pools, restaurants, pubs and shops.

A great place for our two families to stay. Plenty of space, beautiful views and a great location to explore the town and walks in the area. Would definitely recommend and would book again.

We spent a week at Gemma’s place while visiting for school MTB racing and I t was perfect! A clean, modern and functional home which was easy to heat on the cold nights and cool and airy on the hotter evenings. Beds were comfy, home well furnished and the kitchen had everything we needed, including a knife that cuts a tomato (the ultimate test in my book!). Gemma was easy to deal with and we had no issues at all. Gemma’s place will be on our list when we’re back in Methven.

Kate was very helpful and friendly. House was perfect for what we needed, well priced and tidy.

Really lovely place to stay. We enjoyed how tranquil it was out in the country, and we even got a clear night to see the amazing stars! We didn't use the fireplace as there wasn't a fire guard and we had our one year old with us who likes to run head first into everything, but the beds were super warm and thankfully it didn't get too cold during our stay. Definitely planning on coming back again soon :)

Thank you Creighton and Shannon for a memorable stay in your beautiful home. My family and I enjoyed our visit to Christchurch and the house was perfect for our stay. The house itself had all amenities you could ask for, modern and spacious, quiet location and easy to access.

Fantastic,beautifully prese ted home in the heart of Hanmer. Great log fire and comfy interior. Close to all that Hanmer offers.

Great house and great spot. Nice and warm.

Absolutely loved our stay. Such beautiful scenery and comfortable stay. Absolutely recommend checking this place out!

Well the pictures instantly appealed- but it’s much larger in real life. The accessibility for me of being able to check in at 9pm was very helpful and as I had a lot of gear with me having the door at the front was very useful for loading and unloading. The details in the memrobilia were very interesting and yet a classic collection that was visually appealing A very classy apartment. Also much warmer and quieter that I had expected.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The space was immaculately clean and the beds were amazingly comfortable. The host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful. Perfect location with epic views across to Mt Hutt. Would definitely book again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

You’d be lucky to stay in this gorgeous spot overlooking Taylor’s Mistake. It’s incredibly peaceful. We had kids there and there was lots for them to do. From night time spa beneath the stars, to finding the moon on the telescope to climbing down to path to the beach’s thanks for our wonderful stay Julie and family.

We had a couple of minor issues, but Devon went out of her way to help rectify the problem and that was very much appreciated. The apartments are lovely and very conveniently located, with lift access to the ground floor and basement car park.

Very spacious. Many nearby restaurants and supermarket

Emma is a great host and the house is warm and welcoming. We had a fantastic stay. Highly recommend.

Second time we’ve stayed here while visiting Hanmer with family, and another great place to stay. Very close to downtown and the water park. Only shortfall is dishes, glasses and cups are very limited, so you’ll need to hand wash before you come close to filling the dishwasher. Hand to believe they don’t stock more than six of each item.

Maree hosts a fantastic, beautiful, comfortable renovated villa home in a superb location that remains private and serene. She was a great host and I could not recommend staying here highly enough.

Elizabeth’s place was nothing short of amazing. The entire place was spotless and we loved the rustic vibes of the cottage. Both bedrooms were thoughtfully furnished and had more than sufficient heating in winter. The living room was large and spacious, just a wonderful space for 4 adults to gather. Kitchen utensils were extremely clean and new as well! The surroundings of the cottage was extremely peaceful, a wonderful place on the patio to stargaze too. The cottage sits in the middle of an expansive estate, good for a quiet evening stroll. We loved that Elizabeth’s place was near a few wineries and just a short drive to the supermarket in Amberley. Elizabeth was friendly, responsive and left easy to follow instructions regarding her cottage. My friends and I had a really great time there! Dusty the dog was a bonus for us! He was super friendly and playful. A joy to be around! We definitely recommend the place!

This house has everything you need...exceptionally well equipped in the kitchen, very spacious for 6 people , warm and quiet . The weather was moist for most of our stay but we all loved the sound of the stream running through the side of the property and all the lovely trees and birds!!Would definitely go back .

Thanks so much, Steve. This is an absolute gem of a place, you couldn't want for more! Very cosy with the huge fireplace, every kitchen utensil you could possibly need, spacious rooms. Basically, it was perfect. Thanks for looking after my parents so well, we'll definitely be booking again! All the best, Imogen.

Lovely house in a great position to walk everywhere and enjoy everything Hanmer Springs has to offer. It had a bit less outdoor space than we were expecting but this didn’t stop us from enjoying a BBQ! The kitchen is very well equipped and it’s a lovely sociable space. The beds were huge and bathrooms spotless. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This was the best place we stayed at during our trip. I wish we could’ve stayed longer at this cottage as it is absolutely gorgeous! The view from the front porch is incredible and the cottage is private and quiet. The host had the log fire roaring when we arrived. Wonderful.

Lovely old cottage tucked away at the end of a road. Easy walk through Hagley Park to the town centre. There was everything we needed to feel at home. Very clean throughout. Particularly enjoyed the cosy lounge to chill at the end of busy days in Christchurch. Roomy bedrooms and a great kitchen too. John gave us useful tips on getting the best from our stay. Highly recommend Brockworth Cottage.
