Wonderful host and location
Sophie has done an excellent job creating a little slice of paradise near Nelson. She was extremely friendly (popped over a bottle of milk and some snacks which was lovely and unexpected!), and allowed for total relaxation. I would recommend this spot to anyone visiting. 10/10
