About this property

Historic charm behind the Nelson Cathedral

The Tintagel Cottage (pronounced Tin-ta-jel) is a luxury studio cottage located in a tranquil garden setting at the rear of an historic 4 bedroom home, situated in a historic area in Nelson known as ‘The Dress Circle’. The owners, Kay and Simon reside on-site, and have enjoyed hosting visitors at the cottage for over 15 years.

Intimate and cosy, north-facing French doors open onto an established garden, with large native trees and shrubs, home to an abundant birdlife. An oversized chess board sits beside the cottage. The interior of the cottage is light, private and warm, and tastefully decorated, including artworks from local artists.

The open plan cottage is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. All linen, crockery and kitchen appliances are provided. Facilities include a kitchenette, bathroom, entertainment area, separate laundry and secure storage facilities. Wireless internet is available to guests. There is safe on-street parking. Perfect for singles or couples.

Tintagel Cottage has the benefit of being close to a wide range of local attractions, parks, rivers, and a 15 minute walk from central Nelson. Melrose House and Café are almost across the road. Sample local beers, award-winning wines and restaurants all within a short stroll. There are numerous walks, both easy or more challenging in the immediate vicinity.

Nelson, the geographical centre of New Zealand, is a region renowned for sunshine, fine beaches, lakes, mountains and native forests. The City of Nelson is large enough to offer all the services and amenities of a large city, yet small enough to feel intimate, welcoming and friendly. With the attraction of fine foods, superb wines, an innovative craft industry, spectacular scenery and traditional Kiwi hospitality you can understand why Nelson is a place to which holiday makers flock all year round.

The Tintagel Cottage comes fully furnished and ready for your comfortable occupancy.
Special conditions: singles or couples only.
Attractive long-stay rates are also available Apr-Nov. Please enquire.
