Very nice cottage, clean and fairly quiet given the proximity of the road. Really liked the spacious deck looking over the countryside, relaxing wine and cheese spot!

Only here for one night but it was a fantastic location, close to town's city centre and was a nice walk to the local wineries. Just the basics that you need for a room but a great price for the location. The owners are lovely and always keen for a chat, would definitely stay here again. :)

Very good location for exploring Martinborough area. Lovely friendly experience with superb gourmet food - both breakfast and dinner. Very like being a welcome guest in somebody's home. The host, Rachel, very engaging and interesting - and a great source of information about the local food and wine scene. Lovely garden that also produced fresh organic ingredients for meals.

Martinborough is the jewel in the crown of the Deep South of the North Island of NZ. It is a beautiful quaint rural town which is ideal to visit if you want a peaceful retreat amongst vineyards, wineries, fabulous restaurants and a thriving cafe culture.
I highly recommend visits to Cape Palliser Lighthouse and Seal Colony followed by Lake Ferry then back to Nga Waka for wine tasting and superb pizza lunch.
Nara Cafe is the go-too for coffee full stop.
A stay at the Wine Shed polishes the experience perfectly.
We'll be back!

This area is a great location for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. The local towns are delightful and well worth visiting and the spectacular coastline with amazing views of seal colonies, lighthouses and lakes make it a wonderful destination for a holiday.

Unfortunately the hotel did not meet expectations. The floor slooped badly in the bedroom and we both experienced a sense of dizzy spells. We both snubbed our toes on the uneven floor between the bedroom and bathroom. We considered the bath dangerious as it was slipperly and no hand rails. Staff were rather unfriendly. We paid what was to us a lot of money for our wedding anniversary night and didnt enjoy the hotel at all . Always wanted to stay there but would not again and would not recommend it.

The vineyards are the main attraction for going to Martinborough. There are numerous offerings and are within easy walking or biking distance of each other. Cellar door tastings are readily available at a wide variety of vineyards, from smaller family vineyards, to the more sophisticated offerings. Muirlea Rise is an example we tried of the former, and Ata Rangi for the latter. Both were really good in their very distinct offerings. Poppies Vineyard is a really good lunch option. Martinborough's weather is typically really good - that's partly why the vineyards are there.

You need to go to Poppies Winery, book a wine tasting!
You need to go to Poppies Winery, book a wine tasting! Not only is the wine delicious but the service is superb. You get to learn heaps about how wine is make, the decisions made by the wine maker and what makes of the wine from Poppies special.
HIGHLY recommend Tirohana Estate. We were well looked after when we went for a wine tasting by a lovely gentleman who made the experience very special. He had great charisma and was passionate about wine, we learnt lots!
We went to little square pizza for dinner and they looked after us very well, and provided the MOST divine range of pizzas. Everyone was happy, and they also cater for Vegans too!
We were staying for a wedding in Martinborough so didn't spend a lot of time at our accommodation but we plan to come back and spend a weekend. As new parents, knowing there is a beautiful getaway spot just over the hill from home is awesome. The staff member we met (Inka I think?) was lovely, she managed to get us an early check in and was very welcoming. My partner couldn't stop raving about how comfy the bed was as well! Well will 100% be back
Close to Martinborough township, so everything was walking distance. We had a nice stroll through the town from the house. We were attending a wedding in featherston which was only a 14minute drive away too. Kitchen and living area had what we needed for our weekend with some games that were available to use. The second toilet was a great addition and came in handy with 5 adults. WiFi was also available.

Great staying in Martinborough at Swan House with great and lovely hosts.
It was a really nice apartment where you can find everything you want also the breakfast was great and we got some nice advices from our hosts regarding visiting some vineyards.
Even one day/night was to short I have to admit to stay in this great atmosphere.
Perfect place for a stay in Martinborough. Excellent heating for the cooler nights and the living areas catch the sun in the day, Five minutes walk to the town square and a short drive or easy walk (for us) to the many of the vineyards. Could not fault the cleanliness and all amenities are there for a short or longer stay.
Location was perfect for hiring bikes and going out for dinner and breakfast. Lots of amazing options of places to eat and the vineyards were lovely! Everyone (mostly!) were very friendly and welcoming - we had an amazing weekend away (sorry for being a bit too noisy in the evening too 😔)
The accommodation was quite comfortable and spanking clean. Also, it was really quiet and calm. Our host Sharon was awesome, she patiently answered all our questions and made us feel at home. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back. Thanks Sharon for everything!
A really lovely setting staying in the vineyard itself, and great location within easy walking distance to Martinborough centre, and great to have our own villa. Aneta the manager was super helpful. Overall excellent and we will stay again when we come back. Highly recommend.
We had a very comfortable stay at the Martinborough Hotel. It’s perfectly located in the town square with shops and restaurants right outside the door. Rent a bike from Green Jersey and visit the wineries. They’re all located within a short ride in flat roads.
The location was outstanding, we were there for Toast Martinborough and you couldn't ask for a better location. Also I brought my companion dog, Cocoa and she could roam the beautiful back yard freely. The cottage was lovely, the BBQ fantastic.
Location was excellent, within walking distance of the main eateries and shops.
Quiet neighbourhood was very appealing.
Used Martinborough as a central point for 3 days of viewing the surrounding townships.
The location of this house was perfect. Walking distance into Martinborough and to wineries. Secure parking. Warm with the heat pump. We didn’t use the log burner. It was everything we needed for 2 friends.
clean and tidy, friendly and helpful receptionist.
beautiful hotel, had to change to a twin room which was easy enough when called hotel and spoke to nice lady on the phone day before we arrived.
A very warm welcome. Rachel was the consummate hostess. Wish we had stayed longer than one night as the Martinborough Fair was being held. First Saturday of February and March annually.
Great location, only five minutes walk to the Square and all it has to offer i.e. cafes, hotels, shopping, supermarket etc. Wonderful host with fabulous communication
Well appointed accommodation in a great location. Staff were warm and welcoming. We appreciated the extras left in the fridge for breakfast. Everything was very clean.
Colin and Gayle are lovely hosts and always make our stay enjoyable! The hotel is nicely located just a block away from the center of activity in town.
