*The bedroom/lounge has a TV.
*Free WiFi.

The location at the Richmond foothills makes a perfect base for enjoying the local mountain biking.
You are about 1 km walking distance to the Richmond Mall and Queen Street shops.
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.

Lovely studio apartment on homeowner property. Parking is off-street. Such a comfortable place to relax after a day of driving or sight seeing, with well manicured gardens as the view out your windows. Very easy to communicate with owner. Highly recommend this for your next holiday!
