Christchurch is among the nearby places that frame this part of the island, and the Pages Road address sits within the city's eastern suburbs.

The Southern Alps run down the South Island, giving the island its mountain backdrop. Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. New Zealand cooking features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
