We spent one night at this beautiful home in March and wish we could have stayed longer. The hosts, Val and Wayne were very friendly. The house and grounds were impeccable. We stayed in the Master Bedroom Ensuite which was large, homey and comfortable with lovely amentiies. The bathroom was very large, well appointed and with wooden floors. We left... More

We stayed 3 nights in the Loft - outstanding accommodation every bit as good as the photos on the web site suggest. The balcony has a view over the town to the sea in the distance. The house is furnished and decorated to a high standard. We were made very welcome. More

Val and Wayne were friendly and helpful. The position of... More

The breakfasts were eaten at a communal table and were perfect. Lots of... More

We stayed at Shelbourne Villa for only 1 night this past December - and the lesson we learned is we definitely need more than 1 night in Nelson. We stayed at the large master bedroom right at the entrance of the house, and it was very beautiful with a large ensuite bathroom and wooden floors. The hosts were very welcoming... More

A beautiful B&B in a charming town with very welcoming hosts. We stayed in the upstairs loft room, which is the size of a 1-bedroom apartment. It is beautifully designed and decorated. The bed is a super-king, perfect for a tall guy like me (195cm, 6'5"). The only minor difficulty is that I had to watch my head going up... More
