Location
Located in the Nelson Tasman region, at the top of the south island of New Zealand, the sunny climate makes us the perfect stop on your travel itinerary. Our nearest town is Richmond, less than 10 minutes drive away. Nelson is a 20 minute drive where you can experience markets, boutique shops, restaurants and bars. Mapua, situated on the beautiful Waimea estuary, is a great place to explore galleries, shops, bars, restaurants and hire bikes from.
We were positively surprised to find this lovely place as we had stayed in about 10 motels, hotels and b&b's on the South Island during our two-week tour and were quite disappointed with many of them. The room we stayed in was very large and tastefully furnished with a small kitchenette, two leather sofas, writing desk and a double bed, tv and wifi. Bathroom was very large and the shower blissfully powerful. Bathroom amenities were of good quality. The quietness of the place and the beautiful surroundings, with early morning bird songs, is really restful. Breakfast, which IS included in the price - and the price of the room being really reasonable - was sumptuous and so delicious

Set in a vineyard and very quiet and peaceful. Modern and clean room with all necessary facilities. Great breakfasts. Couldn't ask for friendlier, more hospitable hosts. Rural but still easy accessible from state highway.
Aedwards
The room overlooks a beautiful vineyard and this can not be a more calm and relaxing environment. Perfect setting to be away from the city life and close enough to visit Abel Tasman for hiking and beaches. Topping of the great setting is breakfast served in room and ample wine. Strongly recommend if you are looking to relax.
