About this property

Historic charm behind the Nelson Cathedral

The Tintagel Guesthouse (pronounced Tin-ta-jel) is located near the centre of Nelson township. Sheltered, private and warm, a luxury cottage is located in the rear grounds, offering tranquil surroundings with the benefit of being very close to a wide selection of activities and attractions that Nelson has on offer.

There are numerous walks, both easy or more challenging in the immediate vicinity. There are plenty of wide open parks and picturesque rivers to explore.

Sample local beers, award-winning wines and numerous restaurants all within walking distance of the Tintagel Guesthouse Cottage.

The guesthouse itself can be described as a large modern studio. It comes complete with kitchenette, bathroom, entertainment area, separate laundry and secure storage facilities. Wireless internet is available to all guests. There is plenty of safe onstreet parking. The guesthouse is located in the garden behind an historic 4 bedroom home. The owners are on-site.

North-facing French doors open onto a glorious garden, full of colour and home to various native New Zealand birds. An oversized chess board sits beside the cottage. Inside, the guesthouse is tastefully decorated with local artworks. The cottage is secure and warm. Perfect for couples or singles.

Attractive long-stay rates are available Apr-Nov. Please enquire.

Nelson, the geographical centre of New Zealand, is a region renowned for warm sunshine, fine beaches, lakes, mountains and native forests.

Lovely location - cost corner
Great place - wish it had included a hairdryer as we flew in to Nelson. Happily swap that for the bathroom scales :-) Just what we were looking for and 5 minutes from Melrose House for coffee.

An ok stay
It is in a nice setting. It was clean and the bed was comfortable but it was minimal. There was soap but no shampoo. The toilet didn’t always flush completely. The duvet was on upside down with the buttons up by our faces. A nice small vase of flowers would be much better than plastic pot plant. Other wise it was OK.
