Canopy Camping Escapes | Sophie's - Manawa o Waikirikiri

About

Sophie's - Manawa o Waikirikiri, translating to 'heart of the Selwyn' in Te Reo Māori, is 20 minutes from Darfield and just over one hour from Christchurch in Canterbury. Within the spacious Lotus Belle tent is a queen bed, offering a direct vista to the tree tops through the tent's skylight. Beautifully decorated with soft neutral colours the interior is restful and cosy. A special tent woodburner keeps you toasty warm in the evenings. A covered-lean to kitchen area and bathroom is just five meters from the tent's entrance. Wake to the calls of native birds, such as bellbirds and wood pigeons and in the morning head to the river for picnic breakfast, followed by a refreshing dip.
