Nelson Rural Retreat - 4bd getaway, spa pool, views, 20 mins from Nelson Airport | House in Brightwater
3 Bedroom House in Brightwater
In the heart of the Nelson region, on 5 acres of countryside with a picture-perfect view of the Richmond Ranges, is Higgs Rest where Luxury has been redefined.
Here, time unfolds as you desire. Days can be slow with leisurely walks and feasts of local produce or adventure-packed exploring the Abel Tasman National Park, Tasman Taste Cycle Trail, and multiple beaches on the doorstep. Either way, days end gently at Higgs Rest – settled around the fire, sharing stories.
Located 18km to Nelson airport.
You won't find anything mass-produced at Higgs Rest. Here, we're all about fossicking, repurposing and re-inventing – with textures that invoke ease – wood of all kinds, layered natural fibres and plentiful plants.
The lodge has all the spaces you desire, whether you are resting or adventuring: Four bedrooms, each with its own view; an expansive lounge with sofas to sink into; a large open-plan country-style kitchen with log burner and adjacent dining; a light-filled conservatory, and a vine-covered courtyard with open fire, spa pool and outdoor shower. Beyond that, a paddock leads you to the river's edge and a secret swimming hole.
Despite its size, Higgs Rest is one of those unique places that feels cosy for two and expansive for groups. It has a special way of welcoming all its guests, whether you're on a personal retreat, a couples escape, or a gathering of many.
