In the Heart of the Vines

Nestled amongst a small operational vineyard just 7 minutes from town in the lower Wairau region lies this unique 2 bedroom home. What makes this property unique is the English barn style look and quality of the build, built by your host. Located near by is the local rowing club with a small boat ramp convenient for water skiing, jet skiing and kayaking. The beautiful town of Picton is a 25 minute drive away, the gateway to the picturesque Marlborough Sounds. Explore the local vineyards, restaurants, rivers, fishing and hunting.

Perfect to Enjoy 100% Marlborough experience

Very comfortable and convenient. Country home feeling.Of course car needed as it is located in the heart of the vines, 10 minutes from Blenheim town center.A great location both to relax on the spot and/or to tour the whole Marlborough region ( vineyards/wine cellar doors, st Arnaud mountains, Sounds-Queen Charlotte- Picton- , white beach etc ). Hosts very welcoming and very helpfull.

We opted for a bit of quite out of town and weren't dissapointed. It was a lovely peaceful stay even if only for a couple of nights. Thanks to our hosts for helping out when we couldn't figure out the cook top.
