Peace on Birdwood

A lovely private unit in a quiet suburb surrounded by the Cashmere Hills (about 22 minutes drive from the airport). Included is a good sized bedroom with a queen bed, renovated full bathroom and separate lounge with sofa bed. The kitchenette includes a fridge, convection microwave, dual cook-top, washing machine and other small appliances. As I have come to realise that having guests stay for just a single night means a lot of work I have decided to place a surcharge of $50 for a 1 nighter.

"Home away from Home" - warm, sunny, welcoming.

Our flat is close to Pioneer Stadium, rugby stadium, Addington Raceway, and Wolfbrook Arena. It is a 5-min walk to Barrington Mall. The train station is also 5 mins away by car. It is also a 5 min walk to catch the public bus from Barrington to Malls, and the city. The flat is at the back of the house and therefore private - you can consider it a home away from home. The Flat is homely and by no means 'flash'. But it is warm, comfortable and a place that you can feel at home in.
