Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Nelson City

Spacious and comfortable home filled with the owners treasures. Great trails for walking, running and biking behind the house. Short walk in to Nelson city. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to cook at home, including homegrown veges and citrus from Hilma’s garden. Deck is lovely to relax on and we enjoyed the outdoor shower. Beautiful outlook. Hilma is a great host and was quick to respond when I had some queries. As well as the trails we enjoyed frisbee golf in the nearby park which is also dog friendly - you can hire discs from MD Outdoors. Had a delicious dinner at Nahm (short drive from house) and great coffee and breakfast at Bobby Franks Cafe (walkable). Connings Pop Up great for fresh fruit and vege.

This was our second stay at Kaye and Kevin's house. It is in an beautiful location with wide valley views. The house is well laid out with every comfort. The kitchen is fully equipped and the bathrooms have excellent showers. There is a great outdoor living area. Kaye and Kevin are wonderful hosts and we fully recommend a stay in their comfortable home.

My family and I recently stayed at this wonderful home, and we were thoroughly impressed. The house is warm and charming, full of character, and the gardens are beautiful. One of the highlights was the direct access to the river walkway right from the front door, which made for lovely strolls and wonderful hikes. The location is unbeatable—close to local attractions, shopping, and dining—while still providing the feel of a tranquil retreat. The amenities were top-notch, and the hosts were attentive, ensuring every detail was perfect. If you’re a fan of Art Deco design and looking for a place that combines style and convenience, this home is an excellent choice. Highly recommend!

Amazing place…have not had a better view. Definitely need a AWD to get up the hill, but host (Tamarin) made sure that she communicated that before confirming booking. Property has a cat, onyx, very friendly and makes you feel right at home. Huge property to wander around, see sheep, cattle and feed chickens.

This place had everything as listed - place was even more spacious and inviting than the photos show! Super friendly and responsive host, spotless place with plenty of room for a group booking. Went down with my family for a wedding and would stay again in a heart beat!! The morning views with your coffee in hand were a highlight!

Amazing views and loved walking to the beach. Very thankful we could bring our dogs. The driveway tested my skills, but once used to it was no issue. A great place, we hope to come back soon.

A hidden gem, the perfect get away! Thank you Mike and Diane!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Shelley’s house. It is spacious and easy for a family to relax in. The location on top of the hill offers great views and is a good base for activities in the area. Shelley is a helpful host and easy to communicate with.

Peace, quiet and gorgeous surroundings sums up our stay. The swimming pool was perfect after a hot day and we could walk to a small cafe through the vineyards for early coffee. Also in walking distance shops providing all our needs and fresh fruit and vegetables locally grown with a really good cafe for lunches. Lars and Sam were perfect hosts and made us feel very much at home.

Great comfy house very comfortable for 2 families with young kids. Lots to do at the house plus close to activities and amenities.

Great place to stay overnight before getting the Picton ferry. Easy check in, great hospitality and really convenient location for what we needed!

Awesome place. Thanks 😊

Lovely place to stay with a friendly host. Not too far from Nelson and surrounding attractions but feels amazingly private and peaceful - and we loved being able to say hello to the cows! Pool was a great facility for hot summer afternoons and the cottage had everything we needed and nice spacious rooms.

Wonderful stay at Matt and Lucy's. the home was well appointed with everything we needed. the pool and the spa was very good and we felt super relaxed and comfortable here. would happily recommend.

A perfect retreat! I couldn't ask for more from a host, Annitta and Shelly are truly above and beyond.

This was our second stay at Bex & Nicks place. Again it was great for us being a large group with kids. Heaps of toys, bikes and space to keep the kids occupied. While also being a great place for an the adults. Its a beautiful place, that feels very quiet and peaceful tucked away on the hillside, but it's still very close to the city centre.

This was a very nice place to stay. The instructions provided were clear and easy to follow, which made check-in smooth. The space itself was clean, cozy, and felt very private—perfect for a relaxing getaway. It’s also conveniently located close to the main road, making it easy to get to all the key spots around Nelson. Edan was very responsive and quick to answer any questions, which made the whole experience even better. Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic little cottage in Nelson, there are some cafes 10-15minutes away which are awesome. Local shops are 15-25minutes away and easy to find. Location is easy to get to from the airport but be careful late at night you may need to call the local cab company to come and get you there. The cottage itself is great, the beds are comfy and have nice bedding on them, the couch is good too for napping on or if you have trouble getting to sleep. The bedroom curtains block out the light sufficiently and there is a large air conditioner in the main area but the climate in the area means having the windows open was just lovely also. Kitchen is well equipped for cooking and the BBQ was a nice bonus my friends from canada wanted to take advantage of while we were there and was a lot of fun. Fantastic pricing on the place and perfect size for two couples or a family. Bathroom was very clean, make sure to bring your own shampoo (or leave some behind for the next guests!).

Our family stayed at Jp's home for about the week and a half. We found it inviting, functional and full of character, with its overall feel, eco friendly products, works of art and many plants indoors and outdoors (yummy tomatoes and spicy peppers, courgettes if you like them, and more). Whether it was making food, watching the telly playing games or relaxing with a book, it felt like a home away from home. Jp was responsive friendly and welcoming. It's been a lovely stay, we happily extended it before the first week ended and would recommend it.

really comfortable accommodation, great location, only complaint was the outside light was still on at 1am!

Caroline's retreat was the best accomodation we have stayed in over our road trip. We wanted something different that wasn't a hotel and this was so perfect. Great views of Nelson. A real luxury glamping experience. I have told all my friends about this it was so relaxed and beautiful.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Very clean and we were close to where we wanted to be in Nelson. Easy instructions to follow. Thank you

Great stay at Nicky and Tim’s place during Easter break. Very good communication from hosts and house was exactly as described. Full amenities provided and great spaces for our family to hang out in. Dogs loved the yard. Thanks for the stay.

A lovely,spacious home in a quiet residential area in the valley near stoke. Close to grocery stores, swimming pool and local walking trails. We stayed for 2 weeks and had everything we needed. I loved all the plants …indoor and out!
