About the host
Hosted by Jane Horder
Now semi-retired my husband, Phillip and I love to travel, go e-bike riding around the region, and we are both foodies (although Phillip is a much better cook than I).
Why they chose this property
The Nelson region, at the top of the South Island is beautiful- there are golden beaches, crystal clear rivers, great walking and cycling track all within an hours drive…or ride.
Great sunshine, surrounded by mountains, and a stunning landscape.

What makes this property unique
We have a large property with an older house (our home) and the newer container home, or Te Whare Iti (the small home), is at the top of the property and is completely separate.
It has great views, good sun and is very private.
