Pohatu Penguins - Gipsy Cabin | Akaroa, New Zealand

Cabin in Akaroa, South Island

2 guests • 1 bedroom • 1 bed • 1 bathroom

This charming Akaroa cabin is perfect for South Island getaways. The quirky wagon can sleep two guests with a comfortable queen bed. Guests will also have a small table and a comfortable bench as well as a deck to enjoy a nice glass of wine

Glampers will find a shower and toilet block just a few steps away from the wagon, as well as a fully equipped communal kitchen and living room that includes two electric stoves, two fridges, an electric jug, a toaster, a microwave, and all cooking and eating utensils.

During their unique stay in New Zealand, guests will spend the night in the middle of a penguin colony and enjoy some fabulous safe swimming beaches.

Note that to access the bay, you will need a 4WD vehicle as the road is steep, narrow, made of gravel and sometimes close to the edge feeling like a one-way lane. The best weekend getaways near Christchurch
