The scenery was beautiful, our hosts were very attentive & accommodating. Our unit was comfortable, warm & clean. We enjoyed seeing the sheep & alpaca the last day & we really appreciated the use of their laundry facility.

This understated & perfectly positioned cottage is an ideal intimate couples getaway. A peaceful and tranquil rural setting whilst only a 10 minute drive to downtown Nelson's shopping and dining. Surrounded by forested hills with abundant bird life, there are views of The Tasman Bay, The Boulder Bank, Nelson Port and the Mount Arthur Ranges. You can find glow worms just a 2 - 3 minute walk from the cottage along the private driveway.
Nelson has been my home since 2012. I live on 25 ha native bush setting with my husband and 3 children. Some of my favourite things to do are walking, yoga, biking, cooking and spending time with friends. I love to travel and enjoy meeting people from all walks of life. Before moving to New Zealand, I spent 25 years living in the Middle East and this is where I met my husband . Everyday I feel blessed and grateful for this wonderful place I call home. I hope you will also enjoy it here. We live locally and are happy to assist you throughout your stay.
There is a Pizza Cart, Coffee Cart, Fish 'n' Chip shop, Four Square supermarket and children's play ground with walks. It is a main area for Windsurfing and you can launch a trailer sailer boat or jet skis from this area also.
