Book a Upper Moutere Cottage

"A beautiful peaceful setting in the countryside close to all the travel and experiences along the Able Tasman area. We had four full on busy days there and it was great to be able to return in the early evening to relax and have full cooking facilities to enjoy our catch from the Anatoki Salmon Farm. We enjoyed our peaceful starts to the day with freshly baked bread and farm eggs and delicious plums from the next door neighbour. The company of the resident farm animals was an added bonus. Our...

"A beautiful property in a good location. Very good amenities and lovely welcome"

"We really enjoyed our stay here. Lovely place with everything you need for a very comfortable stay. We really appreciated all the little touches like warm blankets, books to read, and the well appointed kitchen. We especially liked being able to bring our dog. Thank you!"

"As cyclists on the great taste trail, this property had everything we could possibly want. The location is very peaceful and is near river access. The house has been tastefully redecorated while keeping a 'bowling' theme. I wish we could have stayed more than one night. Excellent."

"We had spent almost a week up in Abel Tasman Park at Awaroa so had been busy hiking, swimming and watching the tides. After all the running about, boat trip up and back this was a super relaxing stop for a couple of days. The view out over the river to the sea and distant mountains is fantastic and we woke up to a brilliant red sunrise. We did laundry and fed some of my breakfast croissant crumbs to the chickens. Its was great."

"The hosts were amazing and the cottage was super clean and welcoming. Touch of fresh flowers and some little treats in the fridge. Eco friendly too."

"Property has a great location for watching all the activity in Mārahau from the deck whilst having breakfast! Explored the Abel Tasman tracks, visited Split Apple Rock and Kaiteriteri. Cafe/bar was close by for coffees or happy hour and dinner. Lovely holiday in a kiwi bach - thank you!"

"An absolutely delightful wee cottage! We had booked for two nights but wished we’d had longer. The cottage was extremely clean, well appointed and equipped (including dishwasher, washing machine and barbecue) - literally everything you need. You could easily stay here for a week - or more! And less than 5mins walk to the Mapua Wharf restaurants and shops etc. The cottage is tucked away among the trees but not completely without a view (it is up a slight rise) and still very light and sunny. The...

"Had a lovely ANZAC weekend at Fern Tree cottage - even went to the service at 11am just down the road. Spacious and warm, and just around the corner from the shops and bakery. Kids loved the rooms, and there was plenty of space for everyone. Highly recommended."

"Itvwas a sweet little spot - ideal fir our day at abel tasman"

"The chalet is so cozy and welcoming with a great view of the mountain and beautiful landscape. We showed up late as we were coming from Picton but Jane was looking out for us to give us a warm welcome to her property. Highly recommended to stay here."

"The place had everything we needed. We cook a lot and there were ample kitchen utensils for all our needs. The wood fireplace worked great. We were able to walk to the water taxi and trail from the home. Highly recommend the home."

"This as a perfect place to enjoy the company of friends. It’s well set up for those who love to cook and share time with friends and family. Wonderful views and great for doing day walks in the Abel Tasman area."

"Really enjoyed our few days in the bach. Very nostalgic for our family."

"Very laid back and quiet. Very soothing. Pudge the dog would visit us daily just to say hello. We loved our stay"

"Neat and tidy, very comfortable."

"Great place with awesome views.....would definitely recommend to friends and family.....it suited our needs perfectly"

"Wonderful! The views are amazing from inside as well as on decks! Two outdoor tables, one under wisteria arbor. We highly recommend Hilltop Heaven."

"Third time for us in this lovely spot. Great set up, great location, perfect holiday. And we sorted the bed this time by tightening the slats, all would be perfect with a new mattress in the room by the hills."

"A private home away from home."

"Fantastic place to stay in Nelson. Close to the shops and eateries in the Nelson township itself. The room was well equipped and in immaculate condition. The bed was comfortable. Would definitely be happy to stay here again. "
