Welcome to Thackwood cottage

The blue skies above Thackwood Cottage seem almost endless.  From the doorstep of this boutique cottage retreat you can see clear across rolling farmland to the warm blue waters of Tasman Bay, Nelson towards the Abel Tasman National Park.  Set within 2 acres of idyllic gardens, this haven is a perfect place for a garden wedding and honeymoon retreat.

Luxury accommodation with attention to detail...

Spend your honeymoon in the beautiful self contained cottage, decorated in French country style and set in the spectacular two-acre landscaped garden.  Enjoy the fresh cool linen sheets and the gourmet breakfasts served daily.  Complementary platter of gourmet food and a bottle of fine local Nelson wine on arrival.  

A gardener’s delight...

Thackwood Garden is an idyllic location for a garden wedding.  A love of the land has lead to the development of a two-acre English Cottage garden as creative as it is filled with magical fragrances and secrets to discover.  Take your photos among the garden sculptures, hidden pathways, tranquil seats, terraced banks and box hedges, lemon groves and the formal areas and the Cherry Walk.  Set up a marquee and enjoy your ceremony in the landscaped open spaces.
