So please make sure you bring insect repellent for your outdoor pursuits).

Clean, comfortable home. Roughly an hours drive either way to Nelson or Blenheim, and 10mins to St Arnaud. Very quiet, picturesque rural surrounding. Full kitchen, comfortable beds and bedding provided. Thanks for a great stay!
