Here are some of our favourite wineries & restaurants: * St Claire Winery Restaurant: https://saintclair.co.nz/pages/vineyard-kitchen * Wairau River Winery Restaurant: https://www.wairauriverwines.com/ * In Picton you must go to SISU, it is a wine bar/restaurant with one of the largest selections of wines we've ever seen and all available by the glass. The food is sharing plates and is amazing. Added bonus is you have a view of the beautiful Marlborough Sounds and the Picton Harbour. * For a casual bite, Breakfast & Lunch then we recommend Seabreeze Cafe, this is located nest to SISU with the waterfront views * If you fancy a small Irish pub then Seumus Irish Pub is a must: https://www.seumusirishbar.co.nz/

Thank you for sharing your home with us! Would not hesitate to book this property again, clean, quiet location with everything you would need. We enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings after a day of touring.
Like new 2 Bedroom Pl. with a small footprint, but like new condition and extremely well appointed with all kinds of kitchen, equipment and spices, including, a Nespresso mini with a few pods to get started. So close to my heart!
