Summary: This cottage was the perfect home base during a month of exploration, and Kay and Simon the perfect hosts. I hope to return to this charming spot again someday!

Summary: Great place - wish it had included a hairdryer as we flew in to Nelson. Happily swap that for the bathroom scales :-) Just what we were looking for and 5 minutes from Melrose House for coffee.

Summary: It is in a nice setting. It was clean and the bed was comfortable but it was minimal. There was soap but no shampoo. The toilet didn’t always flush completely. The duvet was on upside down with the buttons up by our faces. A nice small vase of flowers would be much better than plastic pot plant. Other wise it was OK.

Summary: Perfect! An enjoyable stroll into town and yet so quiet. Couldn't have asked for a better spot! Thank you Kay.

Summary: There were some positives: pleasant and unobtrusive hosts, very quiet and tranquil position, excellent reading lights behind the bed. 1) The advertised photo shows the beautiful main house. BUT THE BATCH IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BUILDING! 2) The place is superficially tidy, but screaming for a deep-clean: eg mould on shower doors and rubbish bin lid, skirting boards grubby, grubby curtains and blinds and needs a good dusting. 3) The garden could be cute but seems semi abandoned - needs a good rake and weed and sweep. 4) The metal chairs are too rusty to sit on. Basically, a pleasant enough property could be an excellent property with some hard work done on it. For the same price, we could stay in a clean smart motel in Nelson, and that is what we shall do in future.

Summary: This property was quaint and close to town, which was great because we didn't have a vehicle but there was a bit of a hill to walk up so a level of fitness and good shoes would be recommended.

Summary: Bookabach highly recommended. Used it several times. Slightly disappointed no longer NZ owned (I am from Australia - sic).

Summary: This was just what the listing said, a character bach in the grounds of a historic villa in the old section of Nelson that rises behind the cathedral. Compact and tidy, the accommodation was just what one or two people would want for a short holiday.
