About this property
Lemon Tree Cottage, ideal for families or couples
With 3 bedrooms, Lemon Tree Cottage is ideal for families or couples travelling together. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac in The Wood, a stone's throw from The Centre of New Zealand and the Botanic Reserve and a 10 minute walk to town, the cottage is furnished to a high standard to provide comfortable living.
The open plan kitchen, living and dining area has lots of windows, flooding the cottage with light from the north and west. The kitchen is fully equipped including a dishwasher, pantry basics. In addition to the essentials, experience a real taste of Nelson with the Nelson Pantry – a selection of locally made products for you to enjoy during your stay. Items include Pic’s Peanut Butter, local olive oil, locally made chutneys and jams, locally roasted plunger coffee and other treats! For day trips, beach towels, a chiller bag and picnic plates are provided. The living room has TV with Freeview, DVD player and stereo. Free fibre WiFi is included in the rental rate.
The two main bedrooms have stipped rimu floor boards, built-in wardrobes, and comfortable beds with quality matresses.
The bathroom features a shower, toilet, heated towel rail and vanity. There is an additional toilet in the laundry, with washing machine, laundry tub and washing powder provided.
To the rear is a fenced, private sun-filled garden, with lemon tree, lawn and patio area, outside table and chairs and barbeque.
Town is a 10 minute stroll over the Hardy Street bridge over the Maitai river, and past the Queen's Gardens.
The cottage is 100m from The Botanics (a large park/playing field ideal for frisbee, football, rugby, bikes, with a children's playground) and The Centre of New Zealand with amazing views from the top. The Botanics was where the first game of rugby was played in New Zealand in 1870.
The cottage has a secure garage and off street parking.
Special conditions:
No smoking inside property, no parties and no additional overnight guests beyond those requested in the booking.
Extras: Cleaning & linen (Required, NZ$125.00 per stay)

About the host
Hosted by Roz Speirs

I have been welcoming guests to my holiday homes since 2004. I take great pride in renovating, decorating and maintaining each property to a high standard to ensure that they provide a comfortable home away from home for guests.
I emigrated to New Zealand from Scotland in 2002 attracted by Nelson’s wonderful climate and lifestyle. In addition to running the holiday homes, Roz is a glass artist (www.clarityglass.co.nz). I live close by so am on hand to sort out any little problems that might arise.
Having rented many baches and holiday homes I know what’s important to guests when renting a holiday home: cleanliness, a relaxing outdoor space, comfortable beds and top quality linen for a great night’s sleep, and provision of the “little things” like pantry basics, kitchen roll, first aid kits and sharp kitchen knives!
