Woodsy is set on a slope of woods overlooking Nelson and the bay. We stayed for 2 nights in the Topaz room, which was a large room overlooking the wooded entrance. It was furnished in a style suited to the age of the property. We loved the space of the room, which was extremely comfortable. Good tea and coffee is... More

Recently stayed here for a night on the way through Nelson. This nineteenth century house has a second life as a B&B, with interesting wood finishes and other period features. The house is located close to the centre of town, set on the slopes of a hill among the bush. The guest balcony has great views of Nelson, the port... More

Our stay at Woodsy was so relaxing and soothing, and the location is wonderful: in the foothills looking out over the town. Shane and Selene were gracious and helped us plot our stay in the area. While downtown is a little walk, parking is easy and there is a great bodega, takeaway and pub just a block away. We stayed... More

An older home that has been renovated over the years. If you want a place that is like an older estate home - this is the place. Large comfortable rooms and attentive care from the owners. The breakfast was an extra cost but well worth it for the home made food. If you are expecting polished granite and modern furniture... More

We also received plenty of advice about what to see & do in the Nelson area.We did not take advantage of the breakfast provided as we were happy to do our own e.g toast which we managed in the...

We stayed 3 nights here and really loved the character of the place which was a traditional historic wooden house in a charming elevated position about 15 minutes walk from the centre of Nelson (which is also charming). Also great location for nice river walks and walks to the centre of NZ. We stayed in Topaz room which was large... More

This was the most wonderfully, relaxing and indulgent break I've experience in years. The location and house could not have been more exquisite.....the owners know how to cater to all ages and desires; this was a slice of pure heaven and my partner and I wanted for nothing. It was just what we were looking for - peace, beauty and... More
