About the host
Hosted by Roger Waddell
Adele and I love sharing our 7 acres of Nelson paradise with guests - we are 150m away, which leaves the Paris Suite as discreetly private as can be. We are well travelled and enjoy pottering on our orchards and fields as well as creative pursuits - one of our accommodations has been profiled by TripAdvisor in the top 14 most awesome and creative places in the WORLD!
Why they chose this property
We wanted a lifestyle that was private, rural and with great views, as well as being close to a city. Our property in Seaton Valley ticked all the boxes! Our wee local village means it is rich in networks and a sense of belonging and contribution.
Roger was asked to teach Outdoor Education locally, so why not move from Auckland to this outdoors paradise? Adele continued her corporate life, telecommuting, until our children's arrival put a temporary stop to that. We now both work part-time off the property but pour our passion for creativity and guest service in to our property: The Gates Accommodation. We farm sheep and grow fruit.
Mapua seaside village is THE place to live in Nelson. The beaches, cafes, walks, artisans, rural bliss are all right here.

What makes this property unique
Near Mapua seaside village (cafes, beaches, studios, artisans). Cycle to wineries and quiet countryside. Unique creative touches and semi-luxury accommodation. City nearby and THREE national parks an easy drive away. This is like living in the south of France - our property experiences NZ's sunniest climate: produce and views abound.
