House offers luxurious boutique bed and breakfast accommodation
in Nelson’s well-known, turreted castle. Your hosts
Nick and Jenny invite you to stay and share with them the
intriguing history, impressive architectural features and
the graceful ambience of times past in one of Nelson’s
most fascinating buildings.
Warwick House was built in 1854 and is one of the finest
examples of early Victorian opulence and grandeur in New Zealand.
The house was extended in the late 1870s to include three
towers, a spiral staircase and an impressive ballroom. Warwick
House was a major venue for lavish entertainment by early
New Zealand politicians and leading merchants.
Warwick House first operated as a gentleman’s boarding
house in the early 1890s and has now been reopened to the
public as one of Nelson’s most stylish and luxurious
locations for boutique accommodation and private receptions.
Warwick House overlooks Nelson City and the Tasman Bay beyond
and is an easy stroll down the riverside “Willowwalk”
to Nelson’s attractive city centre.
The surrounding area has much to offer visitors. “The
castle” as it is known locally, is close to the Abel
Tasman National Park and the Kahurangi National Park, both
of which offer a variety of activities including tramping,
kayaking, fishing, boating and safe swimming beaches. The
Nelson region has some spectacular scenery and is also renowned
for its wines and arts and crafts. Warwick House makes a perfect
base from which to explore the region..
