This is a rare gem - the photos really don’t do it justice. The owners, David and Juliet have gorgeously restored this 150yo hotel to its new glory. It is charming, offbeat, full of lovely touches, we had a ton of fun playing pool and darts and feeling like we owned a pub! Juliet and David are the most hospitable, thoughtful, lovely couple. Always willing to go out of their way to help out or cook you up some lovely poached eggs for breakfast. We can only thoroughly recommend you staying with them if you want to explore the Nelson region. Only 15min drive to the Nelson waterfront. Ka Pai!
