Feel the deep personal connection to the powerful landscape when you sit in one of many thoughtfully placed seating areas surrounded by birdsong and wild life.

Delicious generous full country breakfast provisions supplied free of charge will surprise and delight. If sustainability is important to you many of the homemade ingredients are sourced from the farm including free range eggs, fruits, vegetables and nuts. Delicious, world-famous walnut bread will be baked for you - a perfect match for the homemade gourmet jams and jellies. Indulge in a gift of a chilled bottle of award-winning wine made from our vineyard's grapes.

The many luxurious and thoughtful touches from the top quality beds dressed in Egyptian cotton and goose down, the locally made bathroom amenities, the white robes, the flowers in every room and the well-equipped kitchen create your unique dreamy holiday experience. It is life as it should be.

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Palmer

Host profile image
We live next door in the original century plus old farmhouse now restored for modern life which is surrounded by a 3 acre garden which is another Garden of National Significance as awarded by the New Zealand Gardens Trust. Our main business is growing grapes but we love the happy positive energy our holidaying visitors bring to the farm.

Why they chose this property

Fifteen years ago we bought the next door farm plus a house. This new house had an extensive garden dating back to the late 1960’s and 70’s that needed some renovating and a charming pool. It was perfect for a holiday home.

Over the years I have stayed in many holiday homes in many parts of the world and I have become rather opinionated about what makes this accommodation work well for the holidaymaker. It was great fun putting these ideas into action and creating my dream holiday home. However, uniquely, I have never stayed in my dream holiday home!

What makes this property unique

We chose Marlborough to be our forever home nearly 2 decades ago. It has a great sunny climate and is filled with every outdoor activity imaginable which is important to us. There are stunning views in Marlborough and Eliza's has more than its fair share. The dramatic sunsets over the Richmond Ranges are a nightly pleasure.
