We stayed three nights at Sian’s bungalow; it’s in a lovely quiet part of town about 20 minutes easy walk to the centre. It’s much more spacious than expected, with comfortable furniture and a great garden with table and chairs and views up to the hills behind the garden. We made good use of the washing facilities - always great to have when on a travelling holiday. The bathroom was really lovely with a free standing bath and a very spacious separate shower. Parking is very easy and next to the house.
We walked up the hill to the centre of New Zealand where you can look out over the town. We walked through the Queens gardens and visited the Suter gallery next door. We also walked along the beach South of the town. There’s lots to do in Nelson. Next day we went to Kaikerikeri; the cove beach here is beautiful and the place to kayak.
We arrived later than expected due to cyclone Gabrielle and Sian couldn’t have been more helpful.
We had a great stay. Thank you Sian
