This is our family bach. It is classic kiwiana where some things have remained the same for the last 70 years, but there's still modern conveniences like a dishwasher and heatpump. You can really relax and not be too precious. It is great for kids.

Cosy in the winter and cool in summer. A great base for day trips to the Abel Tasman National Park, wineries or the Great Taste Trail. Only 15 minutes from Richmond and Motueka and 25 from Nelson City.

Access is via a lockbox.

GST tax invoice available on request.

What a spot!
Felt like we were a million miles away, but only 20mins from home. Emma’s Bach is fabulous, everything you need, spacious and the sunrise was amazing over the beautiful still water. Easy walk down into Mapua. Thank you for sharing your space with us.
