Huntley House provides guests with an unsurpassable Christchurch experience. An historic homestead, belonging to one of the city’s earliest settlers, Huntley House has been lovingly restored and is a fine example of late 19th century architecture. Surrounded by 2 acres of mature gardens, guests enjoy a peaceful, tranquil haven just 10 minutes from both the central city and airport. It is the perfect base from which to explore Christchurch or venture further afield for a variety of exciting day trips – to Akaroa, a delightful French coastal settlement; Waipara Vineyards, to sample stunning Pinot Noir; or to Russley Golf Course for a round on one of New Zealand’s stunning championship courses.

Huntley House has 17 rooms and suites, along with dining and bar facilities, a superb library and a Billiard room.
There are four homestead rooms, four garden rooms, four garden suites, two two-bedroom garden suites and one nautically themed cabin.
Fresh flowers, fruit, housemade cookies and nightly turndown with mineral water and chocolate are offered with some of our packages.
Our menu changes daily and we will happily adapt it to suit any special requests - just let us know.
We welcome children at the property and have many activities that will amuse them such as, a portable playstation, large screen TV in the Billiard Room, heated swimming pool, croquet and petanque.
We have a classic car collection available for hire by the day or for longer periods.
