Great stay at the Sails in Nelson
Or stay at the Sails was amazing, the room was lovely and large, the bed was incredibly comfortable and the duvet lovely. A great bathroom with a large shower. Good facilities in the kitchen area, we would highly recommend this venue in Nelson. It was very close to the town and all restaurants, supermarkets etc.
