Description

The guest accommodation is away from the main house in separate private areas. The Lodge's straw-bale construction, double-glazing and wood finish provides a quiet comfort that is accentuated by quality fittings and custom designed /hand crafted furniture. The suites have vineyard settings with extensive mountain views. Vineyard Suites 1 & 2 are located in a separate wing to the east of the main house, with the vineyard’s Sauvignon Blanc vines to the door. They have a spacious, open plan layout. The king bed can be converted into two single beds, plus a double bed/settee can be put up for extra guests. There is a lounging area with digital TV and DVD player. The suites have an ensuite bathroom, tea/coffee making facility, refrigerator, writing desk, a safe, private entrances and courtyard areas. The lodge has wireless/broadband internet connection for guests’ private use. A dedicated guest lap-top is also available. Teas coffee, fruit juice and toiletries are supplied. The courtyards of these two suites can be inter-connected.

The cottage is a new addition to the accommodation mix on the property. Situated on the far side of the vineyard amongst the vines and the vineyard's orchard is a two roomed cottage. Guests have the option of being fully self-catering plus have the use of the Lodge's facilities. Breakfast provisions, teas coffee, fruit juice and toiletries are supplied. The bed room has a super-king bed and study space with a double bed/settee in the living. This room has an open-fire, lounging and dining area, digital TV and DVD player, cooking facilities, fridge/freezer, micro-wave with French doors out to the veranda. New this season is an enclosed veranda area connecting to the breakfast room. This addition now provides guests with a spacious relaxing, dining and computer work area. Supplied are a library of books, magazines, DVDs and reference material on Marlborough's attractions, history and landscapes. There is a lap top for guests use with free access to the web.

Guests are welcome to wander through the vineyard and have free use of the large out-door spa that is set amongst the vines. There are two BBQ courtyards, one open, the other a large covered area with gas heating. There is a separate guest's kitchen/dining area that is equipped for guests who may wish to prepare their own evening meals. The orchard, garden and pottage areas provide a variety of produce throughout the year and guests are free to help themselves. Guests enjoy complimentary use of the Lodge's six off-road or two electric bikes to explore the neighbouring wineries, riverbanks, swimming holes and countryside. There is access from the vineyard to great off-road walking and cycling trails. Three sets of golf clubs are available with some wonderful courses nearby.
