What a great place to stay! Era and Darryl were friendly, welcoming and added a homeliness to our stay in Nelson. We ended up booking quite late in the afternoon on the same day we arrived, but they answered promptly and made the necessary arrangements. The house is neat and cosy located walking distance from the beach in a calm neighbourhood. We arrived with a car and there was no problem finding parking. The three of us had two bedrooms for ourselves - try out the futon!!! I was a bit sceptic at first of it, but I slept brilliantly. The rest of the house was shared and we felt very welcome to prepare food there etc. This also provided a great opportunity to chat with Era & Darryl, who told us some great stories and tips about what to do in the region. Reccomend!
