This property ticked all the boxes, within 35 mins of the airport, peaceful but not remote, close to amenities, vineyards, restaurants and artisan outlets but above all the scenery is amazing and in close proximity to the Abel Tasman National Park (40 min away) The area is beautiful, not too cold in winter and lots of sunshine. There are amazing views of the mountains and sunsets from the cottage and lovely seas views and a great walking beach are only a short walk away. This is the place for an extended stay where you can start to explore all the top of the south island has to offer, including two further national parks, Kahurangi and Nelson lakes, in addition to ample activities for active relaxers; kayaking, canyoning, tramping, sailing, skydiving etc.
