Very cute, clean & comfortable cottage stay. 10 minute walk to the city. A bit of work to locate. No TV but too busy doing other things to notice.....

Ann is a lovely host and the unit is thoughtfully appointed and architecturally interesting. The back garden is lovely. We enjoyed our stay in this backyard retreat very close to the city center.

We loved our time at Anne’s studio! The garden is beautiful, and the location is so peaceful. The studio is super cool and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Anne was very communicative, which was much appreciated. Thank you!

Anne gave us such a warm welcome. It’s a lovely place to stay with all the amenities you’ll need. It’s so peaceful being in her back garden, we slept like roses.Anne clearly takes great care and I would go back anytime whenever I’m in Nelson.Thanks Anne, for sharing your space and the lovely chats. It was a pleasure to show my mom what hospitality means in New Zealand.

Comfy stay in Nelson

Anne's 'secret garden' apartment provides comfortable accommodation for 2 guests (with a quirky loft for a third). It has been thoughtfully fitted out and updated. Breakfast was fulsome and most welcome. The centre of Nelson is but a short (15-20 min) walk away.Highly recommended.
