Retiro Park Lodge

“So much nicer than a hotel experience Away from it all but only 15 minutes from town. Charming hosts. wonderful breakfasts. Beautifully furnished barn conversion. Private, so not like a home stay. Recommend particularly if you like gardens.”

“Secluded, private location Beautiful setting Land to explore Excellent breakfast Hosts Robbert & Victor couldn’t have been more welcoming and their company at breakfast was as enjoyable as it was entertaining.”

“We stayed for only one night and it wasn't long enough! Just out of Nelson, but remote enough to feel you really got away, this beautiful property makes for an oasis of calm and relaxation. The whole place exudes many years of thoughtfulness and dedication - it's a true labour of love. Robert and Victor have made sure all the little things were thought of. We had an extremely relaxing night away from our busy and very active toddler. And we LOVED our bottle of homemade wine, thank you for a wonderful stay! Bonus points for a delicious gluten free breakfast!”

“Wonderful house and property a few minutes away from Nelson. Robbert and Victor are adorable hosts who will do anything to make your stay truly enjoyable. We had a fantastic time at their place and we heartily recommend staying there and spending a few nights if your journey can accommodate it!”
