Only 300 meters to the local dairy/pub and fish/chips shop.

Tahuna beach is a 12 minute drive and Rabbit Island 15 minutes. Enjoy a beautiful scenic drive to famous Kaiterteri beach at the beginning of the Abel Tasman National Park where all sorts of activities await from Kayaking, Scenic boat trips and the Kaiterteri Mountain Bike Park.
If you desire to go and explore Golden Bay it is a 1.5 hour drive to Takaka.

Absolutely fabulous, like having our own wee house!!. Daphna a friendly greeting on arrival, was initially a bit nervous about the closeness of the house, but was quiet, private, absolute bliss. Only things I could fault was internet connection seemed to cut in & out- but who needs to be on the internet while discovering Nelson!, and could do with a couple ice bricks in freezer for picnics. Highly recommended, Richmond has everything you need and a great base to explore from.

Happy in Richmond
We stayed the weekend in this charming large studio, separate and private from the main house surrounded by citrus trees. This was perfect for our weekend visiting family in the area. Off street parking was a bonus.

Everything about the studio was perfect, it was well appointed with all that you would need. The Host was friendly and unobtrusive but at the same time helpful. Its own entrance created a very private setting. We would not hesitate to recommend to all.. thank you so much!
