The weather was amazing (30 degrees most days). We were there for a cricket tournament and when we came back to the property at night there was no air conditioning or fans for the rooms. It’s not a major problem though. It’s probably a nice to have.

The lodge was beautiful. Kathy and Grant were such lovely hosts. The breakfast was amazing and the care of the hosts was second to none. Would highly recommend and we would love to stay again.

It is a little out of the way but that is what gives it the restful country escape.

Wonderful hosts. Very peaceful setting. Immaculate room you can request dinner ahead of time. You will get a really good home cooked nz meal. We had an excellent roast lamb dinner. Restaurants are only 6 minutes away.

The spacious luxurious home in the most idyllic setting next to a stream with swans and ducks. The room had a balcony looking out onto lawn and a beautiful stand of trees, the only noise were birds. The hosts were amazing, helpful and friendly. They brought us coffee when they saw us sitting at the table by the stream. Food was homegrown and cooked from their garden and farm. Will definitely return!

Absolutely nothing whatsoever.

Breakfast great. Local obtained products and of high quality. Location in our opinion is perfect, beautiful large grounds in a rural area. Yet only 30mins drive from center of Christchurch. Other towns and places of Interest all In easy reach by car. We have done a lot of travelling in Nz and this is one of the best. The hosts are lovely very helpful and friendly . If we get a chance to be back near Christchurch again this is where we will be staying.

this is not a criticism—it is a little driving distance from Christchurch city—we stopped here before heading for the airport the following afternoon and that worked well.

the hostess was a delight and the house and grounds were just fabulous. it was a real treat. very large rooms, excellent breakfast. just a treat.

This is such a peaceful location outside of Christchurch. Neither of us are city people and light sleepers so having such a quiet spectacular place to lay our heads was perfect for us. We loved to go into Christchurch and explore the city and it was an easy drive. The Queens Botanical Garden was our favorite. Then, it was wonderful to come back to the gorgeous Silverstream Lodge and sit by the creek. A five minute drive into Lincoln offers lots of restaurant options. Fun to watch/listen to the birds in the aviary. The beds were so comfy and bathroom was great. We had homemade cookies in our room when we arrived and the full breakfast was yummy. The Wi-Fi has been upgraded to Skylink so it is reliable and fast, this was certainly not true other places we stayed .Kathy and Grant were such great hosts and having Gretel (their dog) come up to greet us, helped us get over missing our two. She was so cute and so well behaved. This place was 1/2 hour out of the city but for us that is exactly why we chose it and we certainly were not disappointed.

Short extension cord could be added for the kettle in room kitchenette and I didn't have much luck with the WIFI but this wasn't really an issue as I was offsite most of the time and there did appear to be a Starlink option if needed.

Exceeded expectations! Grant and Cathy were lovely and their dog Gretel was a highlight. Amazing gardens and views. The room/house feels modern and stylish, spacious and even a balcony. I arrived at night and woke in the morning to great views and baby rabbits on the lawn and swans in the river. I was travelling alone but felt safe and the property has security gates at the entrance.

Silverstream Lodge was a gorgeous location. Beautiful gardens perfect for children to run around but also so tranquil. The children loved feeding the ducks and swans and playing with Gretel the friendliest dog. The rooms are so lovely, clean and have views of the gardens. The home made breakfasts are so big and full of surprises to keep you going all day . The highlight are the wonderful hosts Kathy and Grant, such lovely people always ready to help and make your stay the best it can be. I guarantee you will not be disappointed

That I had only booked for one night!

Kathy and Grant were incredibly warm and welcoming. They went out of their way to make sure my stay was relaxing and comfortable and even provided transport to and from the event I was attending which meant I could enjoy myself stress free. The House itself and property was beautiful and very peaceful. The room was huge, very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities I needed for my stay. They also provided a delicious breakfast in the morning. 10 out of 10 will recommend to everyone. Thank you so much!

Very nice and gracious hosts. Lovely rural setting. Well maintained grounds. Wild ducks and white swans with their younglings in tow. Excellent breakfast with eggs made to order.

There are some mosquitoes at night as it is summer time, would be good if the room comes with bug repellent.

The breakfast is spectacular, room is comfortable, clean and well equipped. The garden is also beautiful and overall a great place to take a break
