Walk My World Blog: definitely one of the most wonderful winery views we’ve experienced

Flaxmore is listed one of the top 20 things to do in and around Nelson by this travel blog.

“We arrived in Nelson with a hotel booking for three days. We ended up staying for over two weeks because each day we would find yet another incredible thing to do in the area! The city itself is lovely, with so many amazing cafes and restaurants, as well as very friendly locals, which makes a stay here all the more special.

However, it’s the surrounding area that will really blow you away, with breathtaking beaches, secret glow worm colonies, New Zealand’s most incredible cave, epic hiking trails and plenty of great wineries.

We’re sharing all the best things to do in and around Nelson to help you plan the perfect trip…

7. Delight in wine tasting with a view

If you want to mix great local wine with a spectacular view then head to Flaxmore Vineyards.

Not only are the wines fantastic and the welcome warm, but you can enjoy it all looking out over the glorious snow-capped Mount Arthur.

It’s definitely one of the most wonderful winery views we’ve experienced. Tastings are free of charge and it’s a really relaxed friendly atmosphere. We loved all the wines we tried and couldn’t resist leaving with several bottles.

After sampling the wines, you can then head for a short stroll around the vineyard and make the most of those beautiful mountain views.

At time of writing the cellar door is open on weekends and then on weekdays by appointment only.”
