'STAY & PLAY' packages
Cost from: NZD$670 per person
Kiwi Journeys in conjunction with The Pear Orchard Lodge have put together these unique 3-5 day Stay and Play packages, and the best thing about it? no need to pack your suitcase every day!
Get a group of friends together and experience our amazing region. See the real highlights of the Great Taste Trail, including hop gardens (unique to the region!), vineyards, Spoonerโs Tunnel, Kaiteriteri beach, native bush, Rabbit Island and The Junction Cheese Shop. Explore vineyards, fruit orchards, galleries, and artists in the Waimea Plains. Cruise up the scenic coastline of the Abel Tasman National Park, enjoy the beaches and wildlife and have a walk through some of the stunning Native, the park has to offer.
The Pear Orchard Lodge accommodates up to 20 guests in a peaceful country setting. Situated in the heart of Nelson/Tasman, this rural, relaxing farmlet offers amazing views and a perfect base for families and groups.
Your hosts Olivia and Timo provide multiple options to help you plan the perfect stay, from organising a supermarket delivery for use in the large well-equipped kitchen and farmhouse-style dining area, to a private chef to cook your evening meals.
