Children's space in Christchurch

“Really nice walk up to the top of the adventure park! Can be quite steep at places especially as you head towards the end. We visited just after the park had re-opened from the recent Port Hill fires and we stopped off to look at the full extent of the damage caused by the fires earlier in the year. No cafe or anything like that to be found at the top but great views that rival the views from the Christchurch Gondola. You're even able to have a free ride down on the chairlift if you've managed to make it up to the top!”

“Great little playground tucked away here”

“Great new recreation area for kids on bikes, dogs with two doggy sized areas, walks, and playing fields”

“We came here for a friend's birthday party and it's a great set up. Lots of different inflatable options for the kids, food and drinks available to buy, but can also byo and lots of tables as well.”

“So cool! Good value for money! Had a shuttle if you didn't feel like walking. Lots of cool animals to see. Even got to feed the giraffes! Very ethical place no forcing the animals to interact it's all on there terms. Plenty of very friendly staff and awesome guides.”

“Been playing sports here since they opened. Different owners over the years & price increases as well. Good carparking, Any accidents sorted fast. Fun nights and great refs”

“A great playground! Loads of fun and spacious. Clean as well”

“I would give more stars if possible. We just had our sons birthday party there today and it was a blast. The party room was set up before I arrived, I was also able to arrive before the party to set up our theme decorations. The staff are super friendly and great with the kids. And all the kids loooooved running around and jump in the play area. I recommend to all who are keen. Amazing place will be coming back for more fun again.”

“Small intimate park very cozy,next to te Aratai high school”

“Where my Granson plays soccer ⚽️ nd has Soccer ⚽️ Practice Awesome Reserve”

“Love how they have automatic ball dispenser, if that is what they call it. And so cheap. Not many people go here so it'll be a chill game and they are open until late afternoon. They have mini golf and different courses. They have a cafe too, I think they closes late too so you can enjoy beverages and foods until you had enough. The prices of their drinks are affordable too, I got a can of coke for 2.50 I think. You should try and go here. Golfing with good scenery is a bonus too.”

“So good to see and hear the fun all the kids were having . A very good place to visit to give the children a fun filled day”

“Beautiful park. Good space for activities or a walk with the dog before picking up the kids from school”

“Tranquil and Private park for the residents to enjoy. Nice benches for taking in the surroundings or having a moment of reflection. Comes with average toilets and a small playground with drinking fountain on the other side.”

“Like wandering through a tidy apocalypse.”

“Great park and also a great place to get fresh water !”

“Hannah was exceptional, she was super friendly and helpful! Kids loved her, we will definitely be back :)”

“We have recently had our daughter’s 5th birthday at Launch Pad and it was fantastic! Having access to a child friendly space for the duration, being able to bring in your own food and drinks made it nice and easy. We were very pleased with the set up and ease for the party! They take care of the clean up as well!”

The kitchen at The Old Vicarage Cafe, Restaurant & Bar takes a breakfast‑and‑brunch path and lets the food speak. Sweets lean classic and not overly rich. Breakfast plates are tidy and satisfying. The team keeps things friendly and organised.

Tai Tapu Hotel Restaurant, Bar & Function Venue keeps things coffee‑and‑cabinet and focused on flavour. Pricing lines up with the offer. Portions are generous yet well judged. Service stays present without fuss.

“It was quite big and a lot room to move around”

“Awesome outdoor garden mext to Te Ara Atea Rolleston new library with various plants and small sculptures.”

“A lovely space rice in the middle of Hornby”

“Always an amazing location! Plenty of space indoors and outdoors for any venue hire needs. The people who run it are wonderful, very helpful and skilled in running events.”

“The best rugby! It was awesome to see the Crusaders Team training. Great people running for a good cause, "The Long Run". So nice to see a big community give their best to support the ones in need. I can't wait to be there next time!”

“very peaceful close to riccarton rd”

“Great day out at the twin peaks car show. Wether held up some great classics on display.”

“Fabulous country racecourse. Always a fun day out. Lots of places to park up with a picnic or sit in the stand. Exciting times at the races if you go to Rangiora racecourse”

“Great sports park to walk in. No benches but fantastic to have a safe walk/run area. They have soccer in winter and I think I saw the groundsman mowing the lawn for cricket the other day. Nice open space surrounded by lots of beautiful housing”

“Good small park for walking dogs. They also added a nice 300m track, without too many holes. Great place to practice rugby. Quite far from the road and sheltered with trees making this park nice and relaxing. It's not very busy either and it had a nice playground. The footpath does need some repairs because when it rains there is a massive puddle where you have to go in the muddy grass to go around it, so not ideal. But other things make up for this.”
