Located in Sumner, Cave Rock Guest House offers beachfront accommodation 400 metres from Sumner Beach and offers various facilities, such as a garden and barbecue facilities. This guest house provides free private parking and luggage storage space. The guest house features family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests. Everything. We've stayed here before and could hardly wait to get back. The room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. We slept well all 3 nights. It's just across the street from the beach and close to eateries and shopping. Access to Christchurch is easy and quick. There is secure parking on the property and an area by the garage to turn the car around. Our hostess was very welcoming, accessible, friendly and accommodating. And Bruce, the dog, was playful but well behaved. All in all, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend Cave Rock Guest House.
