Relaxing and convenient
A great, semi-rural spot for a serene Martinborough break that is still handy to shops, cafes and wineries via the e-bikes available to rent, a car, or even walking. Highly recommend.

Romina Retreat
The accommodation is lovely but we were disappointed that there were nail clippings on the floor. It was no problem to clean up but not a nice welcome especially when the owner had been so welcoming. We really appreciated the breakfast provided. We did sleep in both bedrooms as the bed on the first night was very uncomfortable, I seemed to have my head sloping downwards and the pillows were flat. The second night was much more comfortable.

Perfect place
Can't fault our stay in this place. Easy check in, everything we needed supplied. The owner even offered to pick us up from wine tasting if we wanted! Lovely view of the mountains and sounds of birds in the mornings. All solar powered, which was nice to know.

Lovely Stay in Martinborough
Lovely clean new apartment, comfortable bed, great shower and friendly host. Location is a little out of the village but only a few minutes to the square by car. We hired their electric bikes and enjoyed one of the days biking around the vine yards and the village. We certainly recommend a stay here.

Fantastic 2 bedroom apartment
Very enjoyable 2 night stay. The property is new and furnished to a very high standard. Had everything we needed. Only a short drive in to Martinborough and it was handy for us, as we were going to a party nearby. Owners very easy to communicate with. Would definitely stay again.

Great Spot, great host
Spotlessly clean, great host, private and quiet. Ticked all the boxes for us and our friends. I would recommend this place for two couples who want to escape the hustle and bustle, to enjoy a country break in Martinborough and what it has to offer.
