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, have a 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.

Please note the small lake is not fenced.

This place would make a fantastic wedding venue. Plenty of garden photo ops. Great gardens. On the flip side, it appears as if no-one had been here for a while. Hanging cob-webs, mould in the water filters, lawn needed mowing, outdoor furniture was strewn across the lawn, outdoor table was mouldy, oven needed a clean, etc. The new carpet meant a few doors wouldn't open so wardrobes were unavailable.

This place was fabulous for us all to relax and create more family memories. Tennis pool and beautiful gardens for grandies to play. Everything we needed. Needed a bit of a tidy around pool area with a couple of unmentionables left lying around from previous guests! Luckily we arrived early so grandbabies didn’t see anything. Other than that it was fantastic.
