Welcome to my home. Guesthouse, Bed & Breakfast, Homestay are words which could be used to describe the type of gay accommodation I offer. You share my home with me. Guests are welcome to come and go at any time. Stay in for the day if you just feel like making yourself at home, reading my books and magazines, or watching television. 

I am also an agent for gay accommodation  throughout New Zealand.
There are about 80 gay B&Bs in NZ. I know most of the owners and have been a guest in many of them.

Your host; BRUCE MORRISON

It is my pleasure to be a gay host and I enjoy meeting travellers from all over the world, and those from New Zealand. No two gay stories are ever the same and exchanging the experiences of our journey has been an interesting topic of conversation. I have travelled widely in New Zealand and encourage people to see more of the South Island. 

Christchurch is my hometown, and I love it here. Apart from answering "What can I do in Christchurch?", I can advise on destinations and gay accommodation and help make reservations. The relaxed/casual attitude of kiwis is I think reflected in my personality and I think guests do feel relaxed and able to feel at home here.

MY INTERESTS are in the fitness area. I like swimming (there is an indoor pool a few minutes walk along the road), tennis, mountain-biking and cycling in general (I hire a bike at $12 a day) and hiking.

CHRISTCHURCH MASSAGE; I am a trained masseur and do massage therapy as a part time job from home. "Affordable Therapy of Touch" is my motto. I charge $40 for one hour of pampering, a treat for the mind and body.

When there is no one around I confess to singing a few of my favourite show tunes. I can be known to blob out in front of TV.
