Lovely peaceful hideaway
Very nice and clean accommodation, situated away from the town centre. Relaxing setting amongst the vines. Most necessities were there and a heater would have been perfect in the lounge area as the weather got a bit cooler in the evenings. No issues with check-in/out process and owners were responsive and accommodating. Overall, a great weekend enjoying what the region had to offer.

A great 2 night stay
Spacious house, completely separate from the owners. Beautiful views of vineyard. We made use of the kitchen and laundry and everything worked great. When we booked, we asked about the possibility of arranging bikes but the owner never responded. When we checked in, they were confused about our arrival date (they thought we were arriving the following day) but it didn't actually matter since the place was entirely clean and ready (luckily).

Peaceful location
Comfortable, well-appointed space. Enjoyed a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc on the sunny patio. Although about 10 minutes from town, our tour operator, Discovery Wine Tours came out to pick us up and drop us off.

Beautiful location and house
Absolutely incredible location right on a vineyard. Really enjoyed the house, it was super peaceful and had everything you’d need for a few days in the wine country. Loved it, thank you David. David was also super helpful for us.

Cozy and Quite
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.

Rural retreat
This property is located in a section of a new barn style building on the edge of the owners property right beside their vineyard. It is spacious and comfortable with nice outside seating. The owners were helpful and communicative. A car is essential for exploring the area.

Restful stay in Blenheim wine land.
Beautiful property in a secluded and safe setting in the vineyards. Great for walks on the all but deserted roads, listening to the birdsong. A short car trip to supermarket and restaurants. One has to look far and wide for such a peaceful setting. A credit to the successful hosts Sandra and David. Excellent !
