Had a lovely stay at Kate's in Wellington. 3 storey private house behind main house with wonderful views of the bay from the decking off of kitchen. Lovely bathroom with big shower. Comfy bed. Stove not working didn't bother us, had big lunch out and just prepared sandwiches/micro meals for dinner. If you have no car it is in a street with half a fairly steep hill, no problem going down to CBD, however, in the street before, Hawker Street (Doctors Common) you can get the number 20 bus from Courtenay Place and if you look for the dairy store then opposite there is a pedestrian access stairway which leads to the top of Earls Terrace. We found this very easy and we are no spring chickens!
We liked the area, enjoyed Wellington and would recommend staying here
