As we're at 500m altitude we have our own micro climate and the weather can change rapidly, sometimes you'll experience all of the seasons in a single day. Depending on the moon cycle and weather you may be lucky enough to see the most uninterrupted night sky views you could ever imagine!
In Summer we’d appreciate check in to be between 4-7pm and in Winter 3-5pm. You will have complete privacy at the retreat, we live about on the property and work from home so we will be available if you need anything.
Guest access: The entire home is exclusively yours to enjoy. We recommend you bring food to self-cater as we are a 45 minute drive from the nearest supermarket.
Interaction with guests: We will meet you on arrival at the bottom of the mountain and will be available on the property, but you will have complete privacy at the house. We work from home so you will be able to contact us if you need anything.
Other things to note: Please note the only cell phone reception available on the property is at the house where you'll be staying.On the drive to Peak View you won’t have any reception.
Please note the driveway is a gravel road for 5.5kms up the mountain. The is a bit windy, and can be a bumpy adventure so we recommend a comfortable vehicle like an SUV.
We look forward to sharing the Peak View Retreat experience with you and showcasing our stunning Nelson and Marlborough region.
