About this property
Peaceful Comfortable Cottage in Beautifully Landscaped Garden
Secluded, tranquil setting, offering rural views beyond landscaped garden with stream and waterwheel.

Perfectly located for the Great Taste Trail.
LGBT friendly.
Please note single night surcharge $15.00
A poem written by one of our clients Bob Lowe:
Holiday Cottage – Nelson - February 2014
The grass slopes to the fountain.
The sun warms the verandah at breakfast and dinner.
In the kitchen garden, the tall corn stands rustling
While the goats clamber on each other
And we talk through the sunset.
Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included);
