FREEDOM HIRE FROM OUR BASE

If you want to set your own route and decide what time to start and finish, a freedom hire is best for you. Our location makes it easy to explore the areas of Stoke or Richmond, south of Nelson city. We have maps which you can use to plan your ride, showing the best routes to attractions in the area via cycleways and quiet roads. Within 10 mins of our base you can visit two historic houses with gardens or the charming coastal peninsular of Monaco. You can also ride to the World of Wearable Arts and Classic Car Museum or to the beautiful Tahunanui Beach for a day on the sand. We also have additional maps which illustrate 3 short historic trails in Stoke. Alternatively, go south to the elegant Fossil Ridge Winery and Cafe, via the pretty Richmond foothills and return taking a route through some of Richmonds public gardens and prettiest streets.
