Protea Cottage. A place to connect with nature.

Original 1990 settler Cottage situated in a Native Bush Setting close to small creek. Tui and Bell Birds abound and a feeder is set up on the deck from where you can sit and watch them feed. Wake up to the dawn chorus. The Cottage is very private, set a short (5 minute) walk from owners house. Property is on a hill situated in 70 acres with Protea Plantings, Native Bush and lots of tracks to explore. Hosts happy to drive guests up to cottage if their vehicles are not suitable. Off Grid.

Unwind and relax amongst stunning native bush

Let your feet hang over the veranda and get lost in the wonderful sound of the flowing stream, wrapped in 101ha of protected native flora and fauna. Cosy-up with a book beside the fireplace within this serene cabin or gaze far into the Milky Way, void of any light pollution from the city you've left behind. Then wake up to native birdsong in full symphony with an optional delicious homestyle vegetarian breakfast. It's a secluded place where time disappears, yet right on ChCh's doorstep!

You’ll love SiloStay because of the ambience, the outdoors space, the light, the comfy bed, and the neighbourhood. SiloStay is good for couples, solo adventurers, and business travellers. As our Silos are isolated from each other, and the SiloCheck-In is contactless, we are not requesting Vaccine Passes. The only areas where SiloNauts might encounter each other are at the Key Kiosk and Drop-Off, in the car park or on the boardwalks providing access to the Silos.
