About this cottage rental
This stunning property has been lovingly recreated and rebuilt from scratch to the exact architectural specifications of the 19th century house once at this site. The new cottage encompasses the quaint look, high stud and roominess of the old, but also incorporates the insulation, modern outfitting and comfort of the new.
From the moment you drive your car behind the drive's unique electric gates you enter a safe haven in the city. Before you the light, airy Zen garden designed by the owner and actioned by the master landscaper Lindsay Philps from GoFar Landscaping Company. Pause at this unique, private vista knowing it is yours to enjoy for the duration of your stay.
Once inside the house, explore the 2 generous bedrooms, living area, well-appointed galley kitchen and the "has it all" bathroom. Double-glazed sash windows, ceiling roses and ornate fire-surrounds create a sense of atmosphere harking back to a less stressful era. This attention to detail is, these days, somehow absent in most modern spec homes. Built to last, built to impress, built for safety.
This regenerating area of Christchurch is close to everything. You can start every day with a quick walk to Little Poms cafe for a wonderful breakfast and brunch and later meander down to the famous Pomeroys Public bar and restaurant. Or, by car, continue along Kilmore Street and within two or three minutes you are in the exciting Casino precinct with its Victoria Street dining and bars.
Once you have finished with your evening's activities retire to Fitzgerald Cottage, pop some of your favourite music on through the bluetooth-able sound system and relax in the warmth and comfort of your Christchurch haven.
Although I prefer 2 day bookings, I will take single night bookings at $220. Make an enquiry for a speedy response.

This was an absolute TOP stay and can't be beaten in terms of value for money!They cottage has been done up to a very high standard - including double glazing in beautiful wooden sash windows. It was REALLY cosy and warm for our winter stay. The beds had high quality linens, there was underfloor heating and the shower was great! Instructions to guests were very clear. All in all, we felt like royalty. Thanks SO much for making your place available. We LOVED it!

Everything was perfect. Even a ample supply of great coffee and tea.
The cottage was immaculate and so well appointed. It was nice and warm after our cold night out watching the Warriors at the new stadium.
And we were in walking distance to everything.
We cant rave about it enough.
Perfect !!!!!!!!
