From the owner

Corru Gate is stylish and different. City chic meets country style in this architecturally designed, children-friendly 3 bedroomed contemporary lifestyle cottage 4 minutes from Mapua seaside village. With excellent passive solar design, Nelson's largest solar panel array, and recycled materials it embodies a distinctively creative Kiwi flavour - iconic corrugated iron, quality furniture and local/NZ art. French doors open onto a sun-drenched deck and private designer garden with 7 acres beyond.

Wander over our paddocks, admiring the sea/mountain/valley views while the kids enjoy the playground and treehut. 4 minutes to great beaches and rivers. We are passionate about conservation and sustainability and relish the birdlife and native trees of this slice of paradise.

Set in cycling heaven amongst quiet country roads winding through olive groves and vineyards, hire our electric or standard bikes for the Great Taste Trail. Tour maps available for exploring from the farm gate.

Check out 4 bdrm ultra modern eco-arty Copper Gate and Kissing Gate, our glamping site with Settlers Cottage and two lovingly restored 1967 caravans - rated in the top 14 in the world by TripAdvisor.

Optional end-of-stay cleaner. Extra adult beyond two is NZ$40. Children:NZ$20. Linen hire:NZ$15. Wifi free.

Corru Gate - your gateway to a great Kiwi lifestyle.
