Woodend Beachcomber

Woodend Beachcomber

One of my very favourite things is to relax in a glorious outdoor bath as dusk slowly falls and the sky begins to fill with stars. Add to this the distant sound of gently rolling waves and it could be that you too, have found your way to Woodend Beachcomber. Far enough from the city for the sky to be the deepest of velvety tones, but close enough to the city to still use this as a base for your favourite event, -  with Christchurch just a twenty minute drive away, this is a great place to be.

The accomoodation provided for you at the Beachcomber is a pleasure to be in. The ccolours are clear, pure and attractive and the decoration is to the highest standard. This is a top inner city stay, yet you will find it near a beach in the countryside, where you would least expect it. 


Being within walking distance of Woodend Beach is a further bonus, and in Winter this is a beach you will have all to yourself with its long expanses of sand and dunes not to mention its award winning life saving tower.

The outside bath, tucked into a private corner of the section, is an ideal retreat. With plenty of candles supplied, a glass of wine and hot water on tap, this may not be as rustic as lighting the fire and waiting for the waters to heat, but it is sooo much simpler!

 As dusk falls there is time to enjoy the birds flitting overhead to roost, but particularly it is the silence and escape from the traffic and buzz of the city which is most noticeable. Later - a trip into the city, a concert which is anything but quiet, and the challenge of negotiating the wrinkled ragged streets - but what is life without contrasts to heighten its pleasures.
