If you have the opportunity to make it to this part of NZ, please make the effort. It is worth it! The natural beauty of the coast is breathtaking. Neville and Debby are the type of people you wish ruled the world; they are kind and open. The place is spotless! It is a 30 second walk to the beach and the A.T. coastal track is a short drive away (10 minutes). Well worth the effort to drive past Nelson. Wish I had more time to stay.
