About this property

Relax and retreat, a home away from home.

  • The Shed, is a converted farm shed, nestled on a large farm. The Shed is fully equipped for all your self-catering needs. Situated off the Busy Highway, it offers a stunning view of the incredible South Island night sky. With Cable Bay Adventure Park just down the road, there is something for everyone. For those beach lovers, it is just a 5-minute drive to the Cable Bay beach. Cable Bay is a sheltered bay about 20km north-east of Nelson. It has a pebble beach which is also the causeway to Pepin Island. Cable Bay is also a great spot for snorkeling with the adjacent Horoirangi marine reserve and its reef between Cable Bay and Glenduan (where the Boulder Bank begins).

    If you have a Kayak, we suggest exploring the coastline around Pepin Island and discover the caves and secluded bays which are also a great base for snorkeling activities. On your way you will meet some local birdlife and if you're lucky you might even spot some seals or dolphins.

    At the beginning of the beach is also the start or end point for the Cable Bay Walkway which has fantastic coastal views over the Tasman Bay.
