We had a lovely stay at the home. Our communication with the owners/hosts were great. They live down the street, which was nice. They greeted us at the home, gave us a tour, history of how the house was built and recommendations for things in town.
They house was immaculate and felt like it was brand new. there were three bedrooms, which was great as each of our teenagers had their own bed and Ben room. There is no air conditioner, which we knew, but when we opened the windows to get some cool air, it was pretty noisy. That would be the only negative that we have about the house. Everything else was fantastic and would highly recommend staying there.

This is a beautiful, stylish, modernist house. The house was perfect for our short family holiday to Nelson and conveniently located for easy access to the Nelson town centre, local MTB routes and motor routes up to Abel Tasman park. Charles and Rosemary were very gracious hosts who greeted us with the keys on our arrival.

Wonderful location and beautiful architecture.
Our family was only here for one night but the host was most gracious, the house was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. We were happy to be able to walk to town for dinner and some sight seeing. Great location, and only a 15 minute drive to the Nelson Airport.
