Former bowling club now available to rent as accommodation.

Come and experience a little piece of NZ history by staying in our newly rennovated cottage. (Formerly a lawn-bowls clubroom in Motueka). The cottage is near a stunning swimming spot on the river.
The cycleway goes past the property and the adjacent river reserve is popular for swimming and trout fishing.
The property is located in the Motueka Valley, 20km from the Motueka township.
There are many activities to do in Tasman: https://www.nelsontasman.nz/visit-nelson-tasman/
There is lots of bowling club memorabilia on display including the championship boards. (If your name is on one of the boards, or if you are related to someone on the board, there is a 20% discount)

Great spot next to River
Nice relaxed atmosphere. Recommended for nature lovers with a lovely swimming spot in the river and a winery nearby. Can do with better pillows on beds.

Terrific stay!
We had a brilliant time at the Old Bowls Club - it was set up so well, it had everything we could have needed. The decor was just delightful , we loved reading about the history of the club and the greens and beautiful gardens made it feel very serene. We enjoyed the swimming hole in the river next door on hot afternoons and enjoyed the location very much. Thanks so much!

A lovely surprise
As cyclists on the great taste trail, this property had everything we could possibly want. The location is very peaceful and is near river access. The house has been tastefully redecorated while keeping a 'bowling' theme. I wish we could have stayed more than one night. Excellent.

Vrbo contact procedure is a nightmare
The Bowling Green was a wonderful holiday home. Kathryn was very nice. We had to ask her where number 9 Peninsular road was, as we did not see the number at the road. It did not matter, as we liked to say hello to the person looking after the house. The house was lovely, contained all we needed and we could even play a round of bowls, before going swimming in the river. The problems I had were all with Vrbo. When I tried to book the house, Vrbo texted us a security code, which never came. We had to repeat that 2 times before we could do the booking. When I wanted Kathryn to email me the code for the lockbox, I had to contact her via Vrbo. I had to wait for a code from Vrbo, which did not come the first time, so i asked for repeat. That was when the first code came through, which was rejected, but the 2nd code did the trick. Absolutely awful and unneccesary process, as you already know it is me, as you have our email address and our booking. When I received Kathryn's email, I wanted to thank her, as she was not sure I would receive it. Again the whole hoepla with codes. This time I could not get through and gave up, feeling bad about not answering Kathryn. In short, the house was lovely, surrounded by a garden and the bowling green, it was spacious. If we are again in the neighbourhood, we would book it again.
