Edenhouse Escape

EdenhouseThanks to Peter & Bobbie for a magical stay at Edenhouse. I was thoroughly looked after from the moment I stepped off the plane at Nelson Airport. Peter was there to meet me and we went straight to lunch to enjoy a perfect sample of Nelson’s delicious food and wine.

Onto Edenhouse; a “hi” to Bobbie, a quick tour of the estate and an introduction to Annie the beautiful Golden Labrador and Guest Liaison Officer. I then enjoyed a relaxing afternoon followed by a delicious evening meal and then early to bed due to our pending early start the following morning.

What a stunning property – and so much of it hand worked with love and dedication. This is a home open to the world, a chance for the international visitor to connect with an amazing piece of the country.

Thanks for the delightful stay and chance to refresh!

Kawaha Point LodgeMy partner and I recently had an amazing opportunity to spend a weekend at Kawaha Point Lodge in Rotorua. We thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere and the well kept grounds surrounding the property. We were greeted with friendly smiles, hand shakes and felt immediately at home in this elegant lodge. The service and attention to detail was impeccable, and the food was superb. We came away feeling very pampered, totally relaxed and de-stressed.
