60 sq meter apartment that is all on one level that is accessed via a set of external stairs

Located between Wakefield and Brightwater near Nelson

Nestled in Mt Heslington Valley on a 16 acre farm. There is a paddock adjacent to the building that has recently been planted with young fruit trees and this is available for guest access. A quiet country road runs past the property and is delightful for both walking and cycling. 

There are no street lights near the property. The apartment has outside lighting to facilitate night time access. 

The night sky is often spectacular viewed from the deck. 

The Loft is suitable for up to 3 guests and can be booked together with The Last Straw Cottage for larger groups or separately. The Loft is a few minute’s walk from The Last Straw Cottage.

A perfect location to explore all that Nelson / Tasman region has to offer.

In the heart of the stunning Nelson/Tasman region, just 5 minutes cycle ride to the Great Taste Cycle Trail, an easy drive from Nelson City and within easy access to three beautiful National Parks. 

The Abel Tasman National Park, The Nelson Lakes National Park and The Kahurangi National Park are all approximately 40 minutes drive from the Last Straw Cottage, making this accommodation a very central choice for family holidays.
