Wonderful Sanctuary!
I spent a most restful week here, and found it to be the ideal location for exploring the Nelson area. The apartment is comfortable, in a safe, quiet neighborhood, and has everything you could need. Geoff and Kay are lovely, friendly hosts, who I so enjoyed meeting and chatting with. Even their pets are adorable! I would return in an instant next time I’m in town.
