This is a great place to stay. The Library is very comfortable and furnished with lots of individual touches and, of course, books. The sunny room opens on to a private sheltered terrace surrounded by trees. Gabrielle provided basics such as tea, coffee and milk, and plenty of information on local places of interest. It's a great location for exploring the area, being close to an excellent cafe, a cycle track and wineries, and within an easy drive of Mapua Wharf (cafes, shops, etc.) or a little further to Nelson City.
