Mapua Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Just a short drive from Nelson, we discovered this little gem in the quaint little fishing village of Mapua. Coffee on the water's edge at The Apple Shed Bar & Café. A great start to our @airnzgrabaseat adventure!

We were on a queen room. The bed was comfortable and the room a good size. It has recently been refurbished to a good standard. There is a microwave, coffee plunger and crockery but washing up all as to be done in the bathroom sink which is a bit odd.
