Rachel Priestley purchased this House in 2014
Why Rachel Priestley chose Martinborough
I chose to purchase this property for its indoor and outdoor luxury and comfort, it spa pool, accomodating and private back deck to catch the last of the afternoon rays, and the cosy fireplace in winter. I have recently put in a brand new kitchen and love the open plan indoor outdoor access from the kitchen to the dining table and large outdoor barbecue.
What makes this House unique
3 hotel-quality Super King beds can be split into 6 King Singles to suit your needs, with a Queen bed ini the Sleep-out and 3 stretcher beds Plus a fold down couch, to enable us to accomodate up to 13 people.

Great stay, thanks Rachel
Rachel was really helpful, we had a few booking queries and changed before our stay and she was amazing.
The property was great for our group. The only thing I would suggest is perhaps a fan in the outside room during summer months, and wifi.
Our group were all from overseas and didn’t have free access to data, so wifi would have been an added bonus.
Great location, and good for groups.
Rachel was accommodating and easy to communicate with. We enjoyed our stay there, the only thing was that the configurations of the room were not exactly what we expected or as pictured (some of the furniture was different than pictured and in different configurations with in the rooms). And the sofa bed in the front bedroom was broken and too big to have open anyway, so we couldn't use it in the end, and one person had to sleep in the sleep out. It did work out in the end, it's just we had all just wanted to be together in the house. The lounge also had some different furniture than pictured with a bit less open space. The deck was a bit crowded with a broken table and two BBQs. Also had to hunt for bedding for the sofa bed in the lounge. Plenty of towels though and the house was clean. Good assortment of breakfast items too. And the spa pool was so great! Would recommend staying here, just maybe would recommend some newer photos of the house. Thanks for having us!

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay, and that you found me easy to communicate with, that the house was clean and lots of towels etc. Thanks for the positive feedback.
The deck has two barbecues for use during your stay, as we sleep up to 13 guests.
There is a wonky table next top the bbqs for use during cooking and two full size dining tables with dining chairs for your convenience.
Beds get made up as per guest requirements. In the main house there can be a Super King Bed in each room or 2 x King Singles and 1 stretcher bed. Photos can't always show every option. We never offer the sofa bed in the front room. The sleep-out was made up for you and your guests.
Glad you enjoyed your stay, we would welcome you back anytime!
