All four holiday homes are perfectly situated to explore Nelson city’s rich array of boutique shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. Just a pleasant five to ten minute walk from each of our holiday accommodations will find you right in the city centre.
Don’t miss Nelson’s famous Saturday market. Buy a coffee or freshly squeezed juice while browsing the stalls of locally made jams and chutneys, organic fruit and vegetables, arts and crafts, clothing and jewellery.
The neighbourhood of The Wood is a quiet residential area with a dairy (convenience store/corner shop), boutique supermarket, post office, Bobby Frank’s Cafe and the Sprig and Fern tavern (a tiny pub with old-fashioned hospitality, open fires, boutique beers and board games).
Take a walk along the beautiful Maitai River, stroll through the Queen’s Gardens and Chinese Gardens, visit the Suter Art Gallery and climb to the Centre of New Zealand for magnificent views over Nelson city.
Nelson is a great base from which to explore the wider region, taking in wineries, galleries, beaches and beautiful countryside. Day trips to Mapua, Kaiteriteri and the Abel Tasman National Park can be organised from the visitor information centre in town.
