Rolleston community & Selwyn – discover your big backyard and everything it has to offer
Selwyn District is becoming the place to be for living and investing in Canterbury, holding the title as the fastest-growing territorial authority area, increasing more than 30% to 44,595 people, the 2013 census shows. Despite the radical growth, the Rolleston community continues to provide a quiet and peaceful homebase with easy commute to the city.
With the move in population, a number of trendy bars and restaurants have popped up. Rolleston plays host to a myriad of activities to bring the wider Selwyn & Rolleston community together.
With nearby access to the beautiful valleys of Little River and bay of Akaroa there are many relaxing things to do. Beautiful coastal walking areas in and around Banks Peninsula entice you to explore the natural surroundings and with close proximity to the Southern Alps this is the perfect blend of town and country, with peace & quiet and convenience.
To help make moving in to Mary Brittan Lifestyle Village stress free, we have listed some key recreational activities for your feel right at home.
