In April, 2013 my wife and I stayed at Bronte Estate and totally enjoyed our accomodations and hosts. Daniel,our main contact was just perfect. He explained the history of the estate and local area. The breakfasts provided were the best of all we tried during our 21 day stay in New Zealand.

We arrived in time for sunset views over the water. We greeted each morning with a fabulous home cooked breakfast on the vine covered terrace. OUr room was most comfortable, The wi-fi was excellent and included in the cost of the room. We loved our stay at Bronte Country Estate.

On our second visit to NZ, we decided to return to Bronte Country Estate, our only "repeat" for this trip. Our spacious room overlooking the Nelson estuary was elegant and beautifully maintained. We enjoyed the proximity to Nelson and the Abel Tasman Trail, and we took a long walk each day in property's acres of apple orchards. But the main... More

Friends of my wife had stayed here on their New Zealand holiday recently and reccommended the place to us.

Very peaceful with birdsong being the only noise... More

Bronte Lodge is a cut above the rest. We stayed in Te Koi, which has fantastic views and is beautifully furnished, and no detail is missed. The service was excellent yet very friendly and made me feel very welcome and at home.

When planning our 3 weeks in New Zealand, the Nelson area was one of the more difficult ones to find suitable high-end accomodation (so much was full months ahead). We lighted after some time on the Bronte Country Estate, with visions of decor out of Wuthering Heights, but in the event we couldn't have been more pleasantly suprised both by... More

In May I treated myself to three days in the Hopkirk Suite at Bronte Country Estate which I believe has been recently refurbished. Just meters away from the waters edge in luxurious surrounds my private retreat was food for my soul which I really needed after losing my Mum recently.

We stayed for several nights in December at the Bronte Country Estate on the Abel-Tasman coast, and were very pleased with our choice. This is obviously a high quality and rigorously-maintained establishment. We had two cottages side by side, one for ourselves and one for our children, ages 8 and 11. The cottages are scrupulously clean, comfortable, and in very... More
