Last Straw Cottage - Beautiful Straw Bale house in fantastic countryside.

FIVE STAR TRIP ADVISOR RATING

Fully self contained, unique Straw Bale constructed accommodation. Very private with own garden setting, set amongst 16 acre farmlet with stunning rural views.

Relax and unwind in this romantic retreat. Ideal cottage for those who seek independence and privacy.

The cottage has a wonderful old world ambience with flowers, antiques and collectables to give a home away from home feel. Cattle, deer and sheep graze around you on the hill sides.

Easy access to the Great Taste Cycle Trail.

A short drive to Nelson city and Richmond and very central to all that the Nelson region has to offer.
