8 Bedroom Place in Upper Moutere

Hand-built using clay brick, The Mudcastle is nestled in the picturesque Neudorf Valley, a 45 minutes' drive from Nelson city. It offers single party, self-catering accommodation in a stunning location for up to 16 guests, and is perfect for couples seeking complete privacy or for small groups wanting a unique getaway location with all that the Nelson Tasman region has to offer right on the doorstep.
PLEASE NOTE the rate currently (NZ$1475) showing is the per night rate for a 2-nights stay. Please contact us directly to book for longer lengths of stay as pricing changes accordingly (NZ$1275 per night for 3+ night stays).
The Mudcastle is the home of Glenys Johnston, who extends a warm welcome to her guests. The castle was hand-built quite literally from the ground up over many years. Each brick and floor tile has been crafted using local materials and each leadlight window has been created specifically for the space in which it sits.
The Mudcastle is surrounded by beautiful gardens which guests are welcome to relax in. We are minutes away from some of the region’s iconic wineries such as Neudorf Vineyards and a short drive from many other attractions such as Mapua Wharf and the Abel Tasman National Park.
Glenys was both born in the region so when it comes to helping you with your itineraries, she has a wealth of local knowledge and some very special, little-known places they can recommend. She lives in separate quarters on the property, and will be there to welcome you and answer any questions you may have while your group’s privacy is maintained.
You group will be the only guests staying at the Mudcastle and you will have exclusive use of the entire Castle. Ample free parking is provided in front of the castle.
As The Mudcastle is located in the countryside, we recommend you have your own transport to get around and explore everything the Nelson-Tasman region has to offer.
Suitable for groups of up to 16 people (20 max, with 4 guests on rollaway beds, by arrangement only, $55 extra per bed per night), guests can spread out across the entire castle across 8 enchanting suites and cosy bedrooms. There are three suites with ensuite bathrooms with large, deep baths, separate shower and toilet. Additionally, the castle features five bedrooms all sharing three additional bathrooms comprising 3 toilets, 2 showers and 1 bath. Our rooms and suites are all individually decorated and offer slightly different facilities as noted below. All rooms have fluffy robes and slippers, complimentary toiletries and towels, heating, ironing facilities and stunning views of the countryside from every window.
Other facilities include a comfortable lounge area, library and complimentary Wi-Fi. Please note that due to our rural location we have very limited cell phone coverage.

Review Score:   4
Summary: Good get together. Plenty of beds roomy dining. Good kitchen. The only negative for us as a family with young kids was futher away from beach and a bit scary and hilly to bike to and from Motueka. Hired van to travel distance. Having a van gave us option to see the variety of option in area.
