Nelson Bed & Breakfast

Plussat: Ray and Jules were delightful hosts, and went above and beyond in assisting with transport, dinner reservations, etc. Breakfast was excellent. Location perfect for walking around Nelson.

Plussat: Loved the location, the old world charm of the building, the space in our room and the welcome we got from our hosts. Would recommend Collingwood Manor as a great base to explore the area!

Plussat: Interesting house and history. Beautifully decorated. Very close to town and river. Great breakfast. Sitting on the veranda with a cup of tea imagining it was 1900!

Plussat: We loved our stay here. When our host, Ray noticed that husband walked with crutches he offered us another room that had a more convenient shower which we accepted. The room was spacious and comfortable with plenty of tea/coffee, fresh milk, cold water and biscuits. It was so quiet with no noise from other people in the house. The historic house was homely in a good sort of way with interesting art work, TV and CD player in room. Breakfast was perfect and it was nice to meet the other guests around the table. This was the best accommodation we have had on our 3 week road trip. Unfortunately it was just for one night, so hope to be back.

Plussat: Loved the old Villa, huge bedroom and private facilities

Plussat: The view was amazing. The room was modern and very clean. Breakfast was delicious.

Plussat: Amazing views. Wonderful vibe - comfortable, clean and really fantastic vibe to it. Nathan did a great job of welcoming us. No complaints at all.

Plussat: Very quiet, clean and comfortable. Friendly couple who own the house. Great breakfast to our liking. Great view over ocean from on high.

Plussat: The lodge is about 3-4mls out of Nelson, high up a track with magnificent views from the large decking around the bedrooms. Perfect place to lie back and read or take a glass of wine. It is quiet and relaxed and yet within good reach of Nelson centre. Bedrooms are well equipped and the beds are comfortable. Breakfast is excellent and the hostess, Candice is very helpful. The Saturday market is well worth a visit.

Plussat: Food and hospitality and exceptional views

Plussat: Very peaceful.

Plussat: Breakfast was great!

Plussat: Lovely welcome from Candice, spotlessly clean, beautifully appointed with stunning views out to the sea, great deck to sit out on, fantastic hot tub to gaze at the stars, breakfast lovely including freshly baked muffins, great location and easy striking distance of Nelson / Abel Tasman

Plussat: Panoramic vista; outdoor jacuzzi; excellent breakfast; comfortable room; engaging hosts. One of our most memorable experiences in New Zealand.

Plussat: Amazing breakfast especially the pancakes. Very friendly owners who enjoy their visitors. Warm and friendly

Plussat: The hospitality was fantastic. They had everything you would need.

Plussat: Tim and Janet were exceptional hosts who made us feel welcomed immediately. The breakfasts were amazing and we loved that both Tim and Janet sat with us at breakfast to chat. It didn’t make us feel that we were being waited on but rather a welcomed quest. Suggestions for things to do were great. Loved how close the B&B was to town and other fun things to do. Their dog Jazz was a cutie too!

Plussat: Hosts were excellent very helpful with information and both Janet and Tim are very much people persons. Accommodation was exceptionally clean and comfortable best night sleep. Breakfast was 5 star rating.

Plussat: The breakfast was delicious especially the fresh fruit. The hosts were also so accommodating and friendly with great stories. They also had bikes so we could travel round the city.

Plussat: As the title says, this was a pleasure. The highlight was the owners. Interesting people with a wealth of local knowledge to share. Thoughtful and considerate touches , milk in the fridge, choice of local brochures to cover restaurants and places of interest, individually cooked and presented breakfasts. Our room had its own terrace and sitting area. It was a peaceful location yet easy to walk into town. It had all a traveller needs for an enjoyable stay.

Plussat: Gorgeous breakfast and the best hosts ever. Very helpful to us because we had to change our entire vacation schedule for our New Zealand visit.

Plussat: Hands down one of the best B&B’s I’ve ever stayed at, Paul and Jeanine have set the bar very high. First off, it’s a beautiful property with gorgeous rooms and thoughtful design. There is nothing like the morning or evening light coming in through sheer curtains. The owners Paul and Jeanine, were above accommodating even before we got there trying to assist with a wine tour. Paul invited us to pick plums from their tree and they were yummy, even packed some with us for the rest of our trip. The breakfast each morning was great and eating with the vines right next to you was so relaxing. My fiancé fell in love with Truffle and Bacchus, the owners dogs and had a good romp on the property with them. The property is situated close to Ruby Beach, 30 minute drive from Abel Tasman, 30 minute drive from Nelson and close to all the vineyards in that region for tours. Jeanine put together a list of vineyards for us to check out and Paul even made our dinner reservation for us in Nelson the night we arrived. This is beyond service. We stayed in the Chardonnay room which was immaculate, we couldn’t hear a peep from our neighbours and if the owners hadn’t told us there was a full house we wouldn’t have known. The bed was so comfy it was really hard to get out of it the first morning for our sea kayak, also great pressure in the shower and lots of hot water. I can’t recommend this place enough. You will not be disappointed.

Plussat: We enjoyed all four nights that we stayed here. Jeannette and Paul were very helpful and they had paid attention to some of the little details we hadn’t experienced on our three week NZ visit. The room was spotless, the bedding lovely, the outdoor area set up with a little table and chairs and a jacuzzis all with a view of vineyards. The WiFi was the best we have had all trip. We could order what we wanted from a continental breakfast menu and it would be delivered at whatever time we specified in the morning. We could even pick apples from their two trees to eat. We would highly recommend Pine Hill Lodge.
