Guest Reviews

• Rowena (10/5): Beautiful quiet location - Room was very comfortable and the beds too. Absolutely loved the bathtubs on the verandah. Private & quiet Husband would say a TV, but it was ok not to have one
• Rachel (8/5): -
• Nick (9/5): -
• Marcia (10/5): Very peaceful and relaxing , comfortable space - Peaceful and relaxing. Second stay
• Nim (7/5): Overall the property was very well designed, beautiful spot up the hill. If you booked to be there on the days restauran - The room was so comfortable, it was heated floor in the bathroom and towels rack. It was very peaceful and relaxing, I like bath tub on the balcony. It was so relaxing soaking ourselves in nature. Highly recommended to plan your arrival time to suit your check in time, otherwise you have no where to go if you don’t have your own car. It’s too far from the shops, cafes and restaurants. We arrived the property at 10 am paid $101.00 for taxi from the airport and hoping we can drop our luggage there and go for wandering and go back when our room is ready to check in, but it’s no one there the restaurant closed on Monday and Tuesday. We had to call taxi to pick us up and dropped us in the city and called taxi to take us back to the property at 2pm. It was a nightmare dragging the suitcase around Christchurch city for 4 hours.

• Darren (8/5): -
• Clodagh (10/5): - Out of town, very peaceful Nothing
• Shan (10/5): Outstanding Accommodation 👏 - Everything was amazing! The location, the view, the facilities, the suprise bottle of wine! I couldn't figure out the milk frother, but that was probably my fault lol
• Lewis (10/5): - Perfect
• Grace (9/5): The staff were great and even got a complimentary bottle of their wine which was delicious, so nice waking up to the nat - The bed was super comfy, lovely outdoor baths
• Jacob (10/5): - Excellent and communicative team, spotless, nice amenities, beautiful property
• David (10/5): A unique, very comfortable, secluded and pleasant place to stay. - A lovely modern modular cottage with a secluded deck adjacent to the vineyard and a view beyond to surrounding hills above Christchurch. Generous facilities. Wine, Nespresso machine and Continental breakfast included. no negatives
• Andrae (10/5): Perfect retreat after a delicious lunch in the winery restaurant. - Stunning location overlooking the vineyard. Large bed & shower, great storage with lots of charging points. Nespresso machine & complimentary wine. Beautiful outdoor area but too cold/wet to enjoy. Loved the comfy chairs to sit & relax & enjoy the view. Few games was very thoughtful. A side table to use with the comfy chairs would have helped (used a dining chair instead as right height). 2 champagne style glasses be nice to enjoy bottle of bubbles.
• WEIQI (10/5): 非常棒 - 对我来说，一切都很好，晚上很安静，有个露台正对着葡萄田，景色很美，早上起来还可以去和羊群打个招呼。 稍微小了点，但是这个估计改不了
• Laurie (10/5): - Wonderful location, quiet. None
• Gail (7/5): Just ok. - At a winery but the winery was closed so that was disappointing It was just ok. Nothing special…
• Tanya (7/5): -
• Susan (10/5): Perfect location mixed with welcoming wine and topped off with Devine sleep - magic - Location - privacy - amazing build materials inside and out - very warm - easy access- bed incredible- so quiet - great views- baths outside bonus- wine complimentary was such a lovely thought .
• Sue (8/5): -
• Ryan (10/5): The perfect stay for us! - Everything! Modern beautiful property with a great view overlooking the vines. Everything we wanted it to be and more! Not something I disliked - but if you were going to Christchurch to explore the city etc you’d need a car as it’s a bit out the city
• Gisela (7/5): -

• Dennis (10/5): Amazing - This exceeded all out expectations
• Xuanhui (10/5): Lovely stay and view - What a unique experience it was, staying at this peaceful place with lovely morning and evening views and having the luxury of soaking in a tub outdoors under the stars. We truly had a great time!
• Günter (10/5): Top - Tolle Lage und Ambiente, super Badewanne im Freien genießen
• Greg (10/5): Quiet comfortable accommodations with a view - Modern design in and out with well thought out amenities. Beautiful sunset views.
• Greer (10/5): -
• marc (6/5): Leuke plek maar niks te beleven en geen restaurant en ontbijt faciliteiten - Wij kwamen aan en na 4 uur is er niks te krijgen en te doen en er is ook geen kookgelegenheid. Het weer werkte zeker niet mee, harde regen en storm waardoor een bezoek voor restaurant in Christchurch ook niet de moeite loont. Ook geen ontbijt te krijgen. Uitzicht wellicht mooi maar er waren enkel mist waardoor je geen 10 meter verder kon kijken. Leuk met mooi weer, niet als het weer tegen zit.
• Carina (9/5): - Very modern interior. Loved the bathtub and the view of the Vineyard
• Lieve (9/5): - Prachtige locatie en heel mooie kamer, ook het terras met de 2 baden was fijn! Lekker eten in restaurant met prijs kwaliteit verhouding. Niets
• cass (10/5): - Perfect wind down space in the cashmere hills, and so quiet
• Jane (9/5): - Quiet location with beautiful views. Relaxing modern room with beautiful big outdoor bath overlooking the vines and Christchurch. Arrived too late for lunch so didn't get to try the restaurant as its not open for dinner
• child_p (10/5): -
• Marta (10/5): Buon soggiorno per visitare Christchurch - Vista molto bella sui vigneti, stanza spaziosa Esterno sul terrazzo un po’ sporco
• Georgia (10/5): Peaceful, beautiful, luxury! - The room was spacious, clean, modern and so peaceful. We loved the deck and baths and beautiful surroundings. The retreat was so private and relaxing. Couldn’t recommend it more highly! Nothing! Everything was perfect!
• Emily (10/5): Incredible - It was different than anywhere I’ve ever stayed
• Mimi (10/5): Relaxing and peaceful stay - Relaxing stay in a great location. The room was thoughtfully designed and beautiful. Nothing
• H (10/5): -
• Nigel Croo (10/5): - Understated luxury
• Angela (10/5): We truly enjoyed the lodging! - Arrived in the evening and it was an easy self check-in process. The one bedroom lodge was very clean and comfortable. They provided a bottle of wine and had many games we could borrow. The best part was the outside bathtubs with a view. I enjoyed the location and property. I wish were would have been there longer to enjoy the surroundings.
• Natalia (9/5): -
• Stella (10/5): -
• Melinda (10/5): The perfect place for couples to stay - Such a tranquil location. It felt like being out in the countryside but still in the city with an amazing view over the city right to the mountains. Having a bath on the deck looking out at the view was absolute bliss.
• Katrina (10/5): Loved our stay - It's the second time we have stayed at Tussock Hill. Last time we stayed in the other unit, we definitely prefer this unit. All aspects of the stay were enjoyable. We love the double baths and the bed was super comfy. It's not that we didn't like, we would have loved to have had robes especially while getting into and out of the bath.
• Sheridan (10/5): - Beautiful, private, quiet room. Free bottle of wine upon arrival was great! No notes!
• Jorge (9/5): -
• Scott (9/5): -
• Dominique (10/5): - The environment was so serene and our room was clean and private! Nothing!
• Gaia (8/5): Il lusso della semplicità: tra natura e un bicchiere di vino - Bellissimo lodge di design, perfetto per una fuga rilassante. La sera è splendido essere circondati solo dai suoni della natura e godersi un meraviglioso bagno caldo. La camera offre molti servizi come l’area colazione, i giochi da tavolo, una meravigliosa vasca esterna. Qualche ragnatela all’esterno che si potrebbe togliere, ma quando si é in un contesto così naturale, può capitare.
• Carlie (10/5): -
• Ralph (5/5): Ein großes Missverständnis - Wir waren sehr enttäuscht. Wir sind sonntags nachmittags angekommen und wollten bis Dienstag bleiben. Das Restaurant war Sonntag bereits geschlossen. Montag und Dienstag Ruhetag. Es gab nichts. Kein Frühstück, kein Lunch, kein Dinner. Wir hatten von einem „Retreat“ mehr erwartet. Da das Vineyard sehr abgelegen oben auf dem Berg liegt, musste man für alles wieder runter nach Christchurch fahren. Jedes B&B auf unserer Reise hatte ein besseres Serviceangebot. Wir sind nach der ersten Nacht abgereist. Vielleicht wäre alles anders gewesen, wenn wir mittwochs bis freitags da gewesen wären, aber sonntags bis dienstags sollte man auf keinen Fall dort ein Zimmer buchen.
• WEI CHE (10/5): - The room design is really nice and with hot-tub outside the balcony. We really enjoy staying at the hotel, and the restaurant is also providing great dining. Totally the best experience in New Zealand trip =).
• Chen (9/5): -
• Marina (10/5): - Amazing property located at the top of a hill with a view on Christchurch. The room is very modern, comes with two external bathtubs where one can enjoy the garden and the view on the vineyard. The property has a restaurant, which closes around 4 - 5 pm, which, unfortunately, makes it impossible to have dinner on site
• Dilys (10/5): Perfect escape - A truly special spot. After a busy few days in NZ we loved having this little haven to relax. The wine was exceptional and a lovely little extra and the outdoor bath was the perfect way to wind down and listen to nothing but bird song. Only a short drive to great food spots or Uber eats delivers! Would have loved a bathrobe
• Rajeev At (10/5): - Hidden gem. Exceptional and unique location!
• Wayne (10/5): Exceptional - Nice location Nicely appointed and no noise
• Rachel (10/5): -
• Stringer (10/5): Magical getaway. - Beautiful, modern top spec facilities with an unparalleled view! What a magic spot. Nothing
• Josh (10/5): -
• Sarah (10/5): Amazing relaxing retreat - No TV ,linked music to the sound system and had a lovely relaxing night chilling in the room, a rare occurrence having time to relax and take in the amazing views. Nothing it was amazing
• carll ervin (9/5): Excellent - The location and the tub.
• Sakiko (9/5): -
• Bridget (10/5): - The bed was super comfy and the room was spacious and private. The sunset and view were beautiful. I would just recommend bringing citronella or insect repellent as the mozzies attacked when we used the outdoor tubs.
• Marcia (10/5): Such a lovely space. We willl be back to stay and try out the restaurant. - Lovely and peaceful. Great communication.
• Oscar (10/5): Great way to start our New Zealand holiday - Excellent location amongst the hills with scenic views across Christchurch.
• Alan (8/5): -
• Jacqueline (10/5): Absolutely beautiful and relaxing, will definitely be coming back! - The view was so beautiful and was just a peaceful, relaxing stay cation away from home for my partner and I :) and getting the breakfast delivered to the room was just another level of service I’ve never experienced at other places!
• Paul (10/5): Another ‘slice of heaven’ in beautiful New Zealand. - The accommodation was extremely comfortable overlooking the vineyard and city of Christchurch. The baths on the deck were truly a luxury. Whilst there were no cooking facilities (of which we were aware) the room was well equipped with milk tea coffee pods and crockery and cutlery. The complimentary bottle of wine was a lovely bonus. Communication before and during our stay was excellent. The late checkout was appreciated as we had lunch at the restaurant allowing us to have a lovely hike before checking out. We would highly recommend the restaurant - the chefs choice menu was EXCELLENT.
• Megan (9/5): Lovely and relaxing - Did not offer breakfast on the morning we were there Having robes and slippers in the room and larger towels for the outdoor baths
• Prue (10/5): Fabulous location & amazing lunch - why leave town!! - Location and proximity to Christchurch. Great walk up Huntsbury Track before lunch. Was lovely. Would love if trees were trimmed or removed so that you could see view & sunset. Think they should be planted to left of balcony.
• Helen (10/5): Cozy, cabin on the hill with a fantastic view. - Everything! No TV. After a day of site seeing would have been nice to veg out a little.
• Zihao (9/5): -
• shilo (10/5): Loved our staycation - Had a great stay, love finding gems like this that allow 1 night stays and don’t require a lot of travel to get to. Felt like we were out of the city though, loved the nature feel. Beautifully appointment room. The baths were great, enjoyed watching the sunset and listening to the bird song, had read comments of no bath products so took bathbombs and robes with is. Had a delicious late lunch at the restaurant, recommend doing the Trust the Chef. Ended our stay with a walk up the Bowenvale Reserve after checkout the following morning.
• Tammy (10/5): Amazing , relaxing , sanctuary - The property was beautiful ! Loved the outdoor baths . Was a nice quiet location for hubby and me to unwind . Really enjoyed the oysters too from the restaurant . We got room service We loved everything .
• John (9/5): - Lovely location close to city but feels rural
• Jodie (9/5): Fab place for any occasion or reason. - Great place, well designed and warm and comfy. Couldnt get reception so it made us take a break from work once we returned back, loved that.
• janette (10/5): Exceptional place to stay, loved it - Location and view were amazing. Wonderful place to stay, would definitely recommend and stay again! Nothing
• Caroline (10/5): Awesome natural night - Quiet, beautiful food and staff, great parking, wonderful outdoor tubs, awesome chairs to lax on inside and the blue tooth speakers awesome Weather.
• takeru (10/5): 最高！ - センスの良いお部屋！アウトドアデッキのお風呂から見える景色が最高！サービスでいただいたワインも素晴らしかったです。
• John (10/5): -
• Michael (10/5): Fabulous - an absolute must-stay for Christchurch - Incredible location - gorgeous views overlooking the city. An amazing winery escape essentially in suburbia!
• Nicki (9/5): Superb - Baths were great. Room was quiet despite the wind. No bath robes. Gap by unit and baths could be dangerous.
• Shane (9/5): Great spot to relax close to the city. - Great view…nicely equipped. The outside hot tub was great to soak in while looking out over the city or into the night sky. For a unit the features were good, great shower, and the Bluetooth speakers in roof were a nice touch. The chairs in the room were super comfy. Just a nice spot to relax.
• Theharrisonwilliams (10/5): 10/10 - Don’t hesitate - 10/10 short 2 night stay visiting Christchurch. Well equipped, nicely designed and finished (heated towel racks & underfloor heating!) The team were lovely, view was excellent and super quiet. Be sure to trust the chef at the restaurant and head in for lunch. Outdoor bath with what seemed like unlimited hot water was a very relaxing touch. Only thing missing was robes & slippers!
• Shawndrs (9/5): Relaxing. - Beautiful views! Nice bathtubs :) Needed more trash bags, extra dishes and supplies or a way to get them and an easier way to throw out the trash. I get the logic behind no tv but it would have been nice to relax at bed time with a show.
• Sarah (10/5): Exceptional -
• King (10/5): Great views and great food. - Really lovely accommodation and the views were beautiful. Ok here are some suggestions A TV in the room, more milk in the fridge, maybe some more coffee pods, maybe a small welcome snack like a Weka bar or a Cookie time cookie (even nicer - something baked in house).
