Great Place - too little time

We used the house to explore Nelson and Abel Tasman National Park, but actually thought it would have been nice to have more time to also explore the area close by. The house is nice and spacy for two people with a great view from the living room sofa. It was calm and quiet and we were able to relax after the busy days outside. We had a great time there and would love to come again. Thanks Emma and Hayden also for the support to get our flat tyre repaired. The garage you recommended did an amazing job.

Hidden rural gem

Well appointed home in the country with a gorgeous view over the farm land and across to the mountains. Cosy and warm for our winter mini holiday.
