Carole Westphal
Lovely contemporary home in eminently desirable above the cathedral location - walk to everything, including hillside hikes, but with a garage as well. Cozy even in the winter with a wall of north-facing windows and under floor heating on the main level. Hosts are the best - very helpful and available as needed but not hovering. You won't be disappointed if you book Wharekaretu!

Stayed mid July, we were met and welcomed on arrival by Charles and Rosemary, who showed around and explained where everyting was and how it all worked. Beautiful home, close to our venue at NMIT and so very warm to come home to each day, and just a stones throw to a multitude of restaurants in the centre of town. Would definitley stay here again if back in Nelson.
