Nice bach, great feel and fantastic views.

Nice bach with really nice feel and fantastic view over Nelson. Well appointed and fitted out, super quiet area and the double glazing, fly screens and heat pumps made for a comfortable summer stay. Kids very happy with Wi-Fi and TV set up. Some of the things are looking a little tired in places (for the price) with lots of chipped plates and cup’s and a few of the beds are getting a little creaky, but nothing major and easily fixed to get from 4 to 5 stars. The neighbours have a super friendly, very old dog who came to the door every night to hang out and say hello, no problem and kind of charming.

Well equipped property in prime location

Well equipped property in prime location. We enjoyed our stay there very much. The master bed was comfy, the shower strong and the modern kitchen very well appointed. We liked the proximity to the river - ideal for morning runs or evening walks. Besides, the downtown restaurants are just an easy 15-20 min walk away.
