About
A Heritage Guesthouse in the Heart of New Zealand
Nestled near the banks of the Avon River and steps away from Hagley Park, Weston House stood as a charming example of New Zealand hospitality.
From 1997 to 2022, it offered visitors a warm welcome, locally inspired breakfasts, and a peaceful base to explore the South Island.
Today, this website remains as a tribute to its legacy – and as a resource for those planning a trip to Christchurch or discovering the region’s best-kept secrets.
What travellers love about New Zealand
From majestic mountains to peaceful beaches, discover why Aotearoa captures the hearts of so many visitors every year.

Travelling through New Zealand left a mark on me — quite literally. From windswept coastlines to alpine trails, it’s the kind of place that shifts your perspective. Weston House now lives on as a journal of that journey.
