The house is lovely and luxurious - matches or exceeds expectations from the photos. Given how expensive pretty mediocre houses in Nelson can be, we felt it good value for money.Great outdoor area at the back for hanging outside on a hot day. 5 minute drive to centre of Nelson town, Woolworths supermarket dead close. We found it an ideal base for exploring Nelson and surrounds.If you don't have a car then you'll need to cycle, bus or cab it as it's probably just a little too far to walk into town every time you need to, but there is a little supermarket and a decent fish and chip shop on the crescent itself.
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves as it was the perfect spot to relax with the kids (2 and 4), who adored playing outside - jumping on the trampoline, playing in the sandpit, and in the playhouse etc. After breakfast they literally bolted for the door. With the living space upstairs and bedrooms downstairs, this also made helped with making it a relaxing stay. Close to Nelson, we could easily get any where, and return to our quiet spot. Our 2-year old still has an afternoon sleep so this was a perfect for us, and there was plenty to do for our 4-year old. Having a glass of wine at the end of the day under the sun shade in the BBQ area was lovely, this area overlooks a lovely established garden.
We stayed for 6 days to explore the Nelson area. Carolyn was a wonderful host, making sure we had everything we needed and giving us recommendations for places to see.Great location, with access to Abel Tasman Park and Havelock. Highly recommend.
We had a lovely family break in Cable Bay. The MTBer's had an awesome time at the MTB park. The rest of us enjoyed the water. Piwakawaka's greeted us and checked in on us ever day. Thoughtful details meant this was really a great stay.
Very comfortable, clean, peaceful apartment with all the amenities we needed. Great place to come home to after visiting family and enjoying all that Nelson has to offer. Vanessa was helpful when we had to follow up after leaving something behind.
