Christine and her house are pure magic. Having been travelling for over two months, we suddenly felt at home. Christine’s garden apartment is perfect for two people and could take a third person easily. It’s large and roomy with a comfy bed that I didn’t want to get out of in the morning, and a great kitchen! It’s also full of friendly, personal touches - good paintings, nice rugs, painted bowls and bits and bobs, and the garden is a delight. Christine is lovely - relaxed and welcoming and full of humour and good advice. We will miss her and her place as we travel on. Would also recommend Nelson as a great place to visit. We spent three days there and wished it was longer. And if you go to Nelson, you have to stay at Christine’s!
