The space
Welcome to Wisteria Retreat, a peaceful, dog-friendly boutique apartment overlooking Blenheim and the surrounding hills. Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome by prior arrangement, making it an ideal Marlborough escape for guests who love travelling with their pets.
Occupying the private upper level of our much-loved family home, Wisteria Retreat is suited to romantic escapes, relaxed weekends, business trips and local events. It accommodates up to four guests, with one king bedroom and a sofa bed in the lounge.
Inside, you’ll find a spacious open-plan lounge and dining area, 75-inch television, fast Wi-Fi, full kitchen, private bathroom, laundry facilities, year-round heating and cooling, and a private infrared sauna—perfect for relaxing after exploring Marlborough’s walking and cycling trails.
The kitchen includes an oven, gas cooktop, microwave, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, kettle, toaster, coffee-making facilities, cookware, crockery, glassware and utensils. Please note that the Thermomix shown in some photographs is no longer available.
A changing continental breakfast for the first two nights and welcome selection may include homemade granola, bagels, bread, cream cheese, pesto, jam, eggs, tea, coffee, milk, coffee syrups, matcha, chocolate sauce, snacks and cooking essentials. Local wine may also be provided for special occasions when arranged in advance.
The private bathroom includes a walk-in shower, heated towel rail, hairdryer, toiletries and fresh towels. The apartment also has a heat pump, washing machine and clothes horse.
Some of the tiles in the home were individually handmade and selected in Peru. Look closely and you may notice tiny drawings created by local children, along with the occasional dog paw print. These small imperfections are part of the retreat’s unique character.
Outside, guests can enjoy the upper deck, outdoor dining area and upper lawned terrace, with sweeping views across Blenheim and towards the surrounding hills.
Please be aware that the property has a sloping driveway, deck stairs and an unfenced terraced garden. Babies, toddlers and young children must be closely supervised outdoors at all times.
The outdoor spa is not currently operational and is awaiting removal.
Wisteria Retreat is located in peaceful Witherlea, approximately two minutes from Redwoodtown shops and supermarkets, five minutes from central Blenheim and Wairau Hospital, and ten minutes from Marlborough Airport. The Wither Hills Farm Park and walking tracks are also nearby.
The retreat is a convenient base for exploring Marlborough’s wineries, attending local events, walking the Wither Hills tracks, visiting the Marlborough Sounds or simply enjoying a restful weekend away.
Local favourites include Allan Scott Bistro for lunch, Gramado’s Restaurant for dinner, the Marlborough Farmers’ Market on Sunday mornings, winery tours and Marlborough Tour Company trips into the Sounds.
Seasonal events such as Garden Marlborough and the Marlborough Wine & Food Festival also bring many visitors to the region.
