This must be one of the best locations in Nelson.....half way between the town and beach (30 mins walk either way) and, though it is a steep little walkway up from the busy coast road, it delivers a fantastic view down into the harbour to watch the constant activities going on below in the water without the traffic interference . Not to mention view of the mountains backing onto the Abel Tasman coastline across the Bay.
Facing north-west, we had sun on the flower filled terrace all day. We particularly enjoyed joking with the locals as they puffed past on their way up the footpath.
Spacious accommodation with good library. There is everything one needs to prepare simple meals and the BBQ outside on the deck works well though, as previous guests have commented, there are 4 good restaurants immediately below on the coast road and the Chippie is only 5 minutes walk.
Barbara and Gordon went the extra mile to help with any little problems we had and are very hospitable.
