Nestled above Robinsons Bay close to picturesque Akaroa, The
Olive Grove is just an hour from Christchurch and is the perfect
place to relax, indulge, explore and experience the unique
atmosphere of the beautiful Banks Peninsula. The historic French
village of Akaroa with its shops, cafes and restaurants is just
five minutes away. Set in an established garden and working olive
grove, the original bay villa was built in 1915 and extensively
restored in 2004 when a second storey accommodation area was added.
Traditional features such as pressed zinc ceilings and leadlight
windows were retained. Guests enjoy spectacular harbour views from
the outdoor spa pool, their balcony, bed and private bath. Wander
through the garden and let the sound of the native birds take you
back to the days when the surrounding area was Totara covered
bushland. On cooler days, curl up in front of the open fire in our
cosy guest lounge.
