About this house rental

Nestled amongst a small operational vineyard just 7 minutes from town in the lower Wairau region lies this unique 2 bedroom home. What makes this property unique is the English barn style look and quality of the build, built by your host. Located near by is the local rowing club with a small boat ramp convenient for water skiing, jet skiing and kayaking. The beautiful town of Picton is a 25 minute drive away, the gateway to the picturesque Marlborough Sounds. Explore the local vineyards, restaurants, rivers, fishing and hunting.

This is a beautiful home surrounded by vineyards, quiet, and an approximately 10 min. drive into town. Sandra was very helpful with us trying to get an alternate plan to get across to the north island when the ferry had cancelled. Spectacular views and wonderful hosts. You can’t go wrong!
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
Very clean and cutely decorated, beautiful views, darling kitchen, fragrant fresh flowers left for us, big bathroom, milk in the fridge, lovely gardens and deck. A bit out of town, so very quiet and we saw lots of stars. My first experience using a washer/dryer that was all in one unit.
8 / 10Excellent·Feb 2026
Our host David was very responsive and helpful, recommending some great dining options prior to our arrival (thank you).The accommodations were very clean, and seem accurately depicted. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, however the furnishings were dated and the kitchen sink was located in the bathroom. The location is in the vineyards, and although a 10 minute drive to town, as described, it felt very remote. All and all, we had a comfortable 2-night stay.
6 / 10Average·Mar 2025
The property is okay but has some odd features such as the kitchen sink being in the bathroom, noisy latches instead of handles on the doors and inadequate lighting. When we stayed the main bedroom door was very squeaky but we left a note for the owners so hopefully the hinges have now been oiled.
