The square is just a short drive for you to head in and have dinner at Circus Cinema Restaurant, amazing pizza at Little Square Pizza, or tasty burgers at 5711 located in the square, have coffee at Neighbourhood cafe or meet the locals over bacon and eggs at Kitcheners.

Martinborough boasts itself on incredible vineyards... take yourself to some of our favourites - Moy Hall, Colombo Martinborough, Schubert Wines, Luna Estate and On Giants' Shoulders. Great for tastings and for lunch.

If shopping is your thing, poke around in the funky lil boutique shops sprinkled around the square and grab some of the locally produced delicacies on offer.

Just half an hour's drive from Martinborough is Lake Ferry, a sleepy beach village on the shores of Lake Onoke where it empties into rugged Palliser Bay.

Go fishing with views of the South Island, try catching whitebait if you're here in spring - or just enjoy a sunset dinner at the Lake Ferry Hotel. They do fab whitebait fritters and flounder!

The bus stop is just outside Pinot Grove and connects with the Train at Featherston Station, you can go into Wellington or to Masterton
You can hire bikes to go around the wineries or there is a Taxi Van which can be booked when needed

No parties, no outside noise after 10pm

Relaxing getaway
Lovely private location. Warm and cozy house with lots to keep the kids occupied at the home and around the property. The pétanque court needs a bit of attention, but the tennis court and trampoline were well kept.

Liked: Communication
The outdoor seating on deck was covered in bird guano. It is all pretty scruffy and tired inside and out. The additional blanket for bed in master bedroom was dirty. Heat pump took hours to warm the room. Kitchen frypans in very poor condition and way too big for elements. Cleanliness was average. Won't stay there again.
