Menteith named after an ancient Scottish Graham clan, nestles among mature trees with great views of hills and mountains. Awake to morning birdsong from your warm spacious room or catch the world’s news on your in-room TV while sipping your morning tea or coffee. In summer a pre-breakfast swim invigorates the body before a day of adventure exploring Christchurch, Akaroa or a return journey across the Alps by train. While enjoying your hearty breakfast in our sunny dining room, Stephen will enlighten you on the specialty honeys produced by the family while you savour the flavours. Fay is an avid spinner of different fibres and is happy to demonstrate her craft- you are very welcome to try your hand! Our Port Hills room with its magical view from the queen sized bed collects the morning sun while the Copland and Elie rooms with flexible king or twin beds look out onto the garden. Ensuite bathrooms are a feature of each room, equipped with many items to pamper you – hairdryers, shower gel, shampoo and conditioner, thick fluffy towels and face cloths. Central heating and electric blankets ensure you are warm even in the winter and robes and slippers are provided for use to the pool. Complimentary laundry and email facilities. After a life in tourism mainly at Franz Josef Glacier, our retirement interests include skiing, golf, genealogy , travel and our grandchildren. Outddoor resident cat 'Whisky'. Welcome to Menteith.
