Big Sky Retreat - beautiful house and glamping yurts overlooking Akaroa Harbour.

Big Sky Retreat is the perfect getaway. From here you can enjoy all that the Banks Peninsula has on offer. Big Sky Retreat is a slice of paradise at French Farm on the Banks Peninsula, just over an hour from Christchurch and 20 minutes from Akaroa.

Big Sky Retreat can accommodate eight adults - two double bedrooms in the main house and two beautiful glamping yurts, far enough away for privacy, but close enough that you all feel together.

Each room has its own bathroom and is very private.

There is also Smokie D's shack and many beautiful outdoor areas.


It’s the perfect location for a family reunion or a getaway with friends.
