Amber House at the centre!

Heritage home with air-conditioned, en suite rooms. Cooked breakfasts & Internet. From NZ$37pppn.

The vibrant and exciting city of Nelson has grown up and outwards around Amber House since it was built in the century before last, but our home remains a peaceful and helpful haven for travellers with all of our city's attractions just a short stroll away.

Our guests can amble to the nearby Miyazu traditional Japanese gardens and listen to the water bell, take a look at the new wharekai on Whakatu Marae, or simply sit on our verandah and enjoy the fragrance of our Irish roses in the front garden.

On Friday afternoons, the Farmers Market is just opposite us in Founders Heritage Park while Saturday morning sees many of our guests off to visit the `World-famous-in-New Zealand' craft and artisan market in nearby Montgomery Square where they mingle with locals prodding organic vegetables.

Although crystal chandeliers hang from ceilings more than eleven feet high downstairs, we do have a new 21st Century hot water system, satellite dish, Amber House - at the centre!™ has fast Internet and both our Blue and Rose Rooms have air-conditioning and en-suite facilities.

Upstairs, the en-suite Blue Room has its own verandahs with a view over Tasman Bay to the Arthur Range on one side and the Sugar Loaf and Botanical Hill (geographical Centre of New Zealand) from the other verandah.

All our rooms are BIG - large enough for two Queen Beds and our double glazed Green Room is very good value for families and those willing to go without air-conditioning in the best climate in New Zealand.

Guests compliment us on our 'Ulster Fry' cooked breakfasts or you can help yourself from a buffet any time if you’re watching your weight.

All long distance coaches stop on request right outside Amber House so you can lie in a bit longer. We have a Garage for Bikes and we grow many of our own vegetables organically in the sunniest place in New Zealand.

Amber House - at the centre!™ is handy for Tahunanui Beach, Restaurants, Founders Park and the 3 National Parks of Abel Tasman, Kahurangi and Nelson Lakes.

Because we have children at primary school we do not allow smoking anywhere on our land. (If you are a Smoker, then the Milton Chalet Motel is very good and just down the road and they do allow smoking outside your unit...)

Both Anne and Adam are born and raised in Nelson and would enjoy giving you tips on how to get the best out of your stay in the Top of the South...

Welcome home!
