Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Nelson

Thank you for a wonderful stay! It worked so well for our family - amazing location, views, added bonus of backyard and spa! The home was so inviting and comfortable too. Great communication also - thank you for having us!

Smyth's home was a complete oasis for our month stay, we always looked forward heading back here at the end of the day! Beautiful scenery and lots of open space around. Smyth was very friendly and accommodating, couldn't have asked for a better home or host for our time in the Nelson-Tasman area - we felt right at home!

We had the absolute best time staying here, the property was stunning, above and beyond what we were expecting! The location could not be better and we loved swimming and snorkelling so close to the house. It was really well equiped and beautiful inside and outside, I loved being surrounded by fruit trees and farmland. Not to mention the balcony (and the bath on the balcony) is a perfect spot for watching the sunset

This is a fabulous, quiet location (but close to shops etc) for anyone wanting to visit Motueka or the lovely surrounding area. The property has heaps of added extras - we really appreciated having a fully functioning, well-appointed kitchen - plenty of lovely crockery, glasses, decent sized mugs!, pots, pans, mixing and serving bowls, utensils etc. Comfortable beds, lovely dining space plus relaxing lounge. The heat pump plus fire place were a real bonus as it was freezing cold outside during our visit. We are keen to stay again.

What can I say! I have just spent the most amazing 10 days at Ginny & Pat's warm and welcoming home, set in the most magnificent 'labour of love' gardens. What a sanctuary of peace and beauty with every amenity you can think of. Ginny and Pat are super friendly, warm, generous hosts who were delightful to spend time with. The home is super comfortable, fully equipped kitchen with everything you can think of, and both inside and outside, there are lovely places to escape to and enjoy the different aspects of the property. Whether you want sun, shade or in between, there is a place to curl up with a book or listen to the radio , everyone with a restful vista. The garden is simply stunning, with beauty everywhere you look, full of joy and serenity. I will be returning and highly recommend this place to other guests looking for something truly special. Thanks Ginny & Pat - you have made my stay one that I will treasure and remember forever.

Such an amazing stay. Wonderful things of note: swimming hole in the river, beautiful surroundings, giant bath, amazing stars, cosy fires, really cosy beds and kind and friendly hosts. Thoroughly recommend 😊

We were in town for a funeral and found Saskia to be a responsive and accommodating host which we appreciated especially given the occasion. We’ve recommended Saskia’s to friends we know are going to travelling to Nelson soon, it’s a beautiful spot.

Steph and Mark welcomed us and made us feel at home. We had a great time in the Tasman region. Accommodation was well laid out and overall functional. Really well insulated dwelling with good heating and cooling meant it was always comfortable inside. Would strongly recommend for anyone wanting to explore the area.

Valerie and Ewan were very friendly and a highlight was their spectacular garden. We were very lucky to be able to help ourselves to the abundant veggie patch. Lots of yummy treats left for us on arrival. Good small supermarket, a couple of pubs and the amazing bakery. We had a very peaceful Xmas/New Year here.

Really nice place to stay, my English work mate said it reminded him of the home he grew up in in the Billericay, England with the style, particularly the living room and kitchen.

We found the Clifftop Retreat cabin suited our needs perfectly and Bob provided an excellent level of communication, service and local tips. He also ensured the pantry and wines were stocked with high quality local products. The accomodation was very good with comfortable bed, terrific functional kitchen and amazing clifftop views of the surrounding bay and local area. The location was perfect for our walking trips up into the Abel Tasman National Park and also fantastic local restaurants and wineries. Bob also organised a pick up from the airport for us as we arrived late at night. Overall a fantastic stay and would certainly recommend Clifftop Retreats very highly.

We loved our stay. The house was beautiful and we felt right at home. It had everything that we needed and was located close to town. We would love to stay here again the next time we’re in Nelson!

Great place to base yourself for the attractions close by. Beautiful clean spacious apartment. Would highly recommend to others.

Cute little cottage feel, would happily stay again.

A terrific apartment, cute setting with comfortable bedding. Good amenities

We had a great time staying here. The place is huge and very cozy! It’s a real hidden gem and definitely worth the money. It’s super clean the kitchen was well equipped, the bed was comfortable and it’s very bright inside during the day which was nice. The living area was perfect to just relax in and have a movie night! Heather is very nice, gave us clear instructions and responded quickly. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Great place to stay. We were a group of 9 and we all had plenty of space. The location is a short walk to a Four Square and the Māpua wharf where there are plenty of eateries to choose from and lovely artisan and gift stores. Jane was a great host who communicated well and provided local recommendations. Would happily stay here again.

It is a lovely house equipped with everything needed for a family vacation. We had an incredible time, highly recommended.

It felt like home very quickly. Comfy beds. Beautiful period rural house in a large garden with mature trees. Easy to find a quiet spot under a tree to read a book. Plenty of parking. A good kitchen and laundry. Fresh plums and heaps more in a welcome hamper. The cats were adorable. They called by for some food and a pat a few times a day and then disappeared into the garden. Too many pluses to mention (and we stay in a lot of airbnbs). Negatives which are hardly worth mentioning would be road noise - not too bad and you don't notice it after day 1 - and the kitchen knives were not terribly sharp.

Very well equipped house for a family holiday, had everything we needed. Gorgeous location close to beach, national park and the shops we needed. All 7 of us had a great stay!

Perfect house for a group get away, very clean, had everything we needed and a lixury to each have our own room and bathroom

Fantastic historical home in a quiet area, walking distance to many parks, restaurants, and shops. Clean and comfortable and full of character. Everything you need for a lovely stay plus some special touches that really made it feel like a home away from home. Cozy bedrooms, well equipped kitchen, and lovely outdoor areas to enjoy too. Perfect base for exploring Nelson!

Our stay at Diane’s place was fantastic. The home is beautiful, very cute and had everything we needed. Diane is super responsive, helpful and friendly. Couldn’t recommend more.
