French Farm House | Maison du Campagne in French Farm, Akaroa

3 Bedroom House in French Farm, Wainui (Banks Peninsula)

Are you looking for a classic Akaroa Harbour experience, but just can't seem to find an authentic property to fulfil the dream?
Are you looking for stunning harbour or restful garden and rural views from every window?
Are you looking for modern technological convenience, state of the art kitchen and well-appointed bedrooms?
Could you believe that such a place exists, just 60 minutes from Christchurch and less than 20 minutes around the harbour from Akaroa town?
Look no further.
This is it!
Whether you are a couple looking for a special self-contained and private getaway, or a family seeking a weekend break from the hustle of Christchurch city, Maison du Campagne will tick every box. Stunningly equipped at every turn, this house is ready to occupy and to be enjoyed for a multifaceted pallet of features that few can rival.
The house itself boasts 3 bedrooms, two double with en suites, and one set up for children. The beds are comfortable and conducive to that perfect sleep, so elusive in one's everyday life. In the morning, throw open the curtains and stand there and just take it all in: Onawe peninsular jutting jaunty and imposing across the reflective inner harbour; the part-reforested slopes of the Eastern harbour rim and the blue, blue sky of another perfect French Farm day.
Hungry? Time to brew that coffee and sit outside on any of the three patios with your breakfast. Fancy a few berries to sprinkle on your muesli? Go help yourself - the garden will provide home-grown seasonal produce to enhance your stay.
What will you do now? Drive south down the western edge of the harbour, ascend the Jubilee to the Summit road, or continue around to the Southern Bays. Or perhaps drive down into Tikao Bay for a swim and a picnic, just minutes from the bach.
Further afield, explore Barrys Bay for cheeses, Duvauchelles for golf or continue around to the amenities of Akaroa itself: Dolphin encounters, Harbour tours, nature reserves, cafes and bars.
Special conditions:
Two day (or more) stays only thanks.
Smoking only outside.
Two small water features: please supervise toddlers.
Extras: Linen (included);
