We hear that Warwick House no longer offers bed and breakfast or single-night stays. It now operates as boarding accommodation, generally for a minimum of three months, with furnished ensuite rooms available for medium-term rental. The house is at 64 Brougham Street in Nelson South, a five to ten minute riverside walk from the city centre.
The house was built in 1854 as Sunnyside by Alfred Fell, and the website describes it as one of the finest and largest early Victorian Gothic Revival houses left in New Zealand. Its four-storey octagonal tower, solid kauri walls and 1,000 square foot Grand Ballroom with a matai dancing floor reflect that history. According to the website, the ballroom is available for private weddings, anniversaries, themed dinners and conferences. The house has views over Nelson to the Tasman Sea.
