Did the trick....
An older home with charm. Lots of room to spread out. Stairs made it difficult for older folks but bedroom on the ground floor fixed that. Only negative was the road noise at night - a very busy street with truck activity was loud.

Geriatric girls trip
I had organised a geriatric girl’s road trip for my sister and a group of knitters/crafters, Racecourse Villa being the Christchurch leg. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of space for all 9 of us in this lovely property, clean and tidy, everything we needed. Would recommend to anyone.

Golf Trip
5 of us were there to play in the NZ Seniors Golf tournament. We chose the house because we needed 5 bedrooms handy to golf course and relatively central in Christchurch. Worked out fine for all..
