Farmstay vacation rentals in Canterbury Region

Riverstone House was the perfect spot for our family gathering. The riverside setting is beautiful and peaceful, and the house had everything we needed—and more. The fresh homemade bread was a real treat! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return. Thank you, Rachel!

Susan & Richard are Hosts with a capital H! Super friendly with helpful suggestions of the area. The Quarters has everything you need for a relaxing weekend including no wifi/signal. We loved that they gave up their time to give us a tour of their farm. Beautiful spot to get away from the city and the stars were amazing. Thank you

We made a huge mistake when only booking this place for part of our stay. My thought was to jump around the South Island with my family at a couple stops. Had I known it was this awesome, then I would’ve booked our whole time at Anna’s. This place is exactly what my family loves. The kids will definitely be complaining about where we stay next. This property is AWESOME.

Roomy, comfortable unit with great kitchen and beds. Ez parking. Great starlight! Ocean surf in the distance.

Absolutely loved our stay here. Would love to visit again. Drew and Sally are very friendly and their place had everything we needed and more. A well stocked kitchen, plenty of toys for our daughter, farm fresh eggs for breakfast, couldn't ask for more. The cottage is very spacious and cozy. It's a very comfortable space for anyone looking to get away from the hustle and noise of city life.

Our stay was lovely and peaceful. Everything we needed was provided. Janette was an attentive host and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others or to stay again (hopefully in 2027 😁)

This place was ideal for my writing retreat. It had everything I needed and was very comfortable. Having a writing desk and a proper computer chair was a real bonus and meant I could get on with my work and not end up with back ache. Lovely barn eggs and milk left for me too. I already am thinking about when I can come again! Thank you so much for everything!

Julies place was beautiful warm and cosy felt like home. The cottage was so well equipped with everything we could possibly need. Plus gorgeous brekkie supplies. The bed was a super king fabulous. I did the farm tour was so wonderful loved it... was the cherry on the cake feeding Tommy the sheep his bottle. highly recommend this gorgeous cottage.

We absolutely loved our time staying with Kim and Glen! They were very welcoming and helpful, showing us around their farm, and happy for us to interact with the animals (our 2 year old had a great time). Their home was clean, very spacious for us (2 adults and a child) and had character. Kim set up the fire for us each night, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. Hopefully we're back in NZ some time soon and can visit again!

Super nice place! The small space was utilized very well, and we loved watching the sunset over the mountains. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was lovely. Great place to stay!

Arrived to a lovely smelling (lavender diffuser), warm & welcoming rustic hut. Immaculately presented. Found Hugh to be a lovely, friendly host. Had a very peaceful, relaxing 2 night stay. Particularly enjoyed the hot tub, outdoor bath & shower, fluffy robes, yummy sourdough bread & eggs each morning, friendly dogs & other animals & the serene, tranquil location. Thank-you so much for sharing your little piece of paradise with us.

Julie and Mike were great host. Fantastic location and the accommodation was perfect for our family of three. Highly recommended, and the cherry on top was the freshly baked bread!

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Hannah's Airbnb, and I couldn't be more impressed! From the moment I arrived, Hannah’s warm and welcoming hospitality made me feel right at home. She went above and beyond to ensure my stay was seamless. The unit itself was spotless—immaculately clean, well-maintained, and beautifully presented. You can tell that Hannah takes great pride in creating a comfortable and relaxing space for her guests. Everything was in perfect order, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience. If you're looking for a place that combines top-tier service, attention to detail, and a host who truly cares, Hannah’s Airbnb is the perfect choice. I highly recommend it and can't wait to return!

An amazing stay! Met their parents and had such a welcoming chat. The farm was so lovely, we had a chance to meet Socks the dog and the two horses. Loved the fireplace and the lovely touch of eggs and milk on arrival. Wish we stayed another night for sure. Definitely coming back here one day. Great spacious rooms and very good heating alternatives. Thank you so much for having us. The welcome card for Coringa was so sweet. Definitely a highlight on our honeymoon. 😁

Tracy's place is such a peaceful location with great views of the mountains. Everything you need for a comfortable relaxing stay. We thoroughly recommend to other guests.

This is our second time staying. Stephanie is so kind and warming, it makes our stay more delightful. The surroundings are beautiful and we got clear views of the Milky Way and we were lucky enough to see an aurora! She let us see the farm animals again which we were most excited for. I couldn’t recommend a better place :)

We had a wonderful time at Denise and Regs place and they made us very welcome. Wonderful spot, beautiful garden and great trail path which was such fun to explore. Accommodation was perfect and all we wanted and would have love to stay longer. Loved the local area so picturesque and beautiful

What a great place, with peaceful backyard and lovely neighborhood. This place has everything you might need for a great stay and Angela is the sweetest. Highly recommended.

Such a unique spot in a stunning location!! We had a great stay. Traveled with our young kids, so we had to be extra cautious with the wooden staircase but it’s not a deal breaker.

Tranquil and beautiful location beside the lake. Great to take a walk to the domain and see the birdlife.

A delightful place. Set in real cool surroundings with a great view over the lake. Kayaks and the hot tub are a great bonus. Although the hot tub takes a long time to heat. But well worth it.

Lovely, peaceful cottage with beautiful mountain views. The king bed was super comfy, and everything was clean and well-equipped. Great spot for a quiet, nature-filled getaway.

This is the second time my Husband and I have stayed here, and it is literally perfect. As long as it's available it will always be our first choice. The home itself is stunning, cosy, all new and so pristine. The hosts go out of their way to make you feel at home, leaving coffee, tea, hot chocolate etc, bread, spreads, cereal, milk, yogurts and fruit, as well as a couple of drinks to celebrate a trip away. They also leave feed for the beautiful deer, sheep and alpaca who are so friendly and will eat from your hand! The view from this place is breathtaking, and only a 10 minute drive to the beach and town. Perfect!

Perfect from the off, great clear communication, stunning peaceful location, beautiful build, the sunrise coffee from the veranda was icing on the cake
