We pride ourselves on going the extra mile during your stay and giving our guests true kiwi hospitality! You can sit outside on the large deck and be amongst the garden with many birds flitting about. There are free bikes for our guests to use to visit the vineyards and I will give you a map with recommendations of wineries we have most enjoyed. We also have Netflix and Sky (including sport) if you just want to chill out and relax.
Originally from Wellington, I am loving living in Martinborough. There are so many fantastic cafes, restaurants, bars and vineyards here to explore. The village attracts like minded people who enjoy great food and wine making. Martinborough is a great little place to live and visit!
Eating out is a must in Martinborough! There are many fantastic vineyards to go to wine tastings or to dine at. The square is a minutes drive, 8 minutes walk or 3 minute bike ride from Swan House.
