Cottage vacation rentals in Tasman District

really nice setup/location. great food too!

River Road Retreat was a delight to stay at, and Peter and Rebecca lovely hosts. The cottage is beautiful, clean and in a gorgeous setting surrounded by fields, and with stunning views to the hills in the distance. We loved the welcome bottle of wine and yummy nibbles, as well as the delicious breakfast served every morning. The air is fresh and clean, the water absolutely pure, and after three days we’ve returned home refreshed and reenergised. Wonderful!! Big thanks from us!!!

Julia's place was well-appointed, had great amenities and is central to town. Great value for money. The outdoor tub was a very nice touch. I personally loved the vintage bathroom with the claw foot tub and brass fixtures. The bath salts were also much appreciated. Julia was very communicative and flexible. Thanks for having us.

I felt so welcomed into Jennifer’s home, perfect home stay. The peaceful surroundings were amazing, highly recommend the outdoor bath. I would recommend this home stay.

We loved staying here. The setting was very rural. The Weka were abundant and lovely to see. A highlight was reading in the lounge looking up at the window to see three cows in the field next door peering in watching us. The surrounding area is so special and beautiful. Unique. The sunsets were spectacular. A very peaceful and restful time.

What a magical place! You guys should totally update the photos, because it's 1000 times better than expected! The lofts and ladders are fun, the hot outdoor bath is devine and the kids toy box kept our son well entertained! Thanks, will be recommending it!

beautiful spot and cozy accommodation - just what my mum and I needed after a horse trek in the rain! Steve was friendly and offered lots of local recommendations (check out the market!)

We loved our stay at the Sandcastle. Rustic charm, perfectly adequate for a private quiet getaway. Great spot to base yourself to explore the area. Awesome host. Thanks Steve.

Kate gave very clear instructions so we were able to arrive safely and were able to find the place easily as we had a long drive and arrived quite late. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming despite our late arrival the night before. Additional plus were the awesome welcome given to us by their pet dogs, Chloe and Amber!

This is a very special place, I wish I could have stayed longer. The house is incredibly cosy and atmospheric, and we felt so spoilt with the great breakfast. This is a true getaway whilst everything you'd like to do and see in the region is close by. Highly recommended!

We had a beautiful second stay at the sandcastle. Loved the peaceful setting, birds and animals on the property. Pizza night was fabulous and Steve was incredibly gracious with our two boys and even took them blueberry picking. Thank you for taking extra care and checking in to ensure our stay was so special. Our boys said this was their favorite place we’ve stayed yet!

Gorgeous Airbnb in fabulous location right in the heart of Golden Bay. Stunning views and wonderful to step right out onto the beach any time and be lulled to sleep by the waves. Beautifully furnished and great artwork by Harriet Simpson. Lots of good walks nearby, the Springs, Takaka for good food and a fab Saturday market. Mussel Inn was really fun and just 5 mins drive. We loved it!

Loved our stay! Private and peaceful surroundings. Would stay here again :)

Great location and a simply comfy Kiwi bach in Kina - we had a great time!

Absolutely loved the stay here on the water! Although the sun was hiding for the few days we were in town, we were able to enjoy the cottage and get some much needed R&R 😊 Elspeth was there to greet us and was a wonderful host. A+++++

Beautiful place with a lovely garden and pond out the back. Deborah was there to welcome us and kindly gave the kids some toys to play with which were greatly appreciated! Lovely comfortable house, would highly recommend as a base to explore Abel Tasman and beyond.

Lovely location for exploring. We enjoyed our stay at Anna’s place. Recommended for anyone wanting to relax and chill.

Bay Cottage is a lovely place to stay. Spacious with everything one needs for a few days. Christine was a friendly host who came over to meet us at the cottage which is removed from the house. This makes for a quiet and secluded stay where you can appreciate the bird song. While the location is rural ( in a citrus orchard) it was a short drive to Takaka and we were able to dine well there. An enjoyable stay.

Great place to get away for the long weekend, would definitely go again.

We had a great time in Mapua. John and Kim were absolutely lovely and gave us very good recommendations for activities. For example we could use their bikes to go to Rabbit Island. We also had fun using their canoe. The wharf with bars and restaurants is only a short walk from the house. We would definitely stay here again.

South St. is a lovely place to stay in Nelson, close to the CBD, quiet, friendly and absolutely charming. The Sojourn cottage is as advertised and more, my stay couldn't have been better. And what can I say about Linda ? The best host ever is an understatement! I look forward to staying here on future visits to Nelson.
