“Perfect location for getting around Nelson on foot. Queen’s Gardens is just down the “brook” (in which one can see eels, by the way), and the CBD (Central Business District) is also an easy walk away. The unit was very well equipped, including some supply items that one doesn’t normally find in a rental. We’d definitely stay here again—in fact we hope to be back within a year to do just that.”

“We totally enjoyed our 4-week stay in Nelson at the Brookside cottage. Location is very walkable, with jaunts to the Queen’s Gardens and the Central Buiness District (CBD) easy to accomplish. The variety of vegetation is almost overwhelming—from a Redwood tree on the way to Queen’s Gardens, to the mandarin and lemon trees located on the grounds. More strenuous hikes to the Centre of New Zealand and the Arthur Whitaker trail can be initiated out the front door of the unit—no need to drive somewhere and then start hiking. The unit came well equipped, and although there is a plethora of cafes and restaurants in the CBD, we did a fair bit of meal preparation in the unit, and found everything we needed to do that. We hope to come back and repeat our visit in another year!”
