This one is a bit different! You can stay in a house truck,
yurt, tipi or farmhouse. Eco friendly, child friendly and
vegetarian friendly ... just friendly really! Situated on the sunny
side of the beautiful Okuti Valley, just 50 minutes from Central
Christchurch and 4km from the end of the Little River Rail Trail
cycleway, Okuti Garden is a great base for exploring the amazing
Banks Peninsula.
At Okuti Garden you can stay in a yurt, tipi, house truck or
farmhouse. Or pitch your tent between the fruit trees or down by
the pond. The atmosphere is relaxed and sociable, and the garden
has lots of quiet nooks and crannies; great places to read,
meditate or practice yoga. We provide an art box and games, but
there's no TV! We do a vege feast on Saturday evenings (November to
March) and breakfast every morning. (Both must be booked in
advance.) The small garden kitchen, where you can create your own
feast, is surrounded by fresh herbs for you to use. Ongoing eco
projects include a solar shower, compost loo, wastewater wetland
and bountiful organic gardens.
