KNOWN FOR ITS FOOD, WINES, CULTURE, SUNSHINE AND SCENERY
A luxury country estate nestled amongst 16 acres of sprawling gardens, this is the ultimate spot to indulge in the pleasures of the famous Marlborough wine region.
Located at the tip of New Zealand’s South Island, Marlborough is a place best known for its food, wines, culture, sunshine and scenery. The Marlborough Lodges sits amongst it all and offers ten stylish suites, each fitted with private ensuites and a balcony where you’ll have access to unforgettable scenic views.
Originally built in 1901 as a Victorian Convent, today this tucked-away property is the perfect retreat from the bustle of city life. Your days at the lodge can be spent cycling around lush parklands, sipping on fine wines and relaxing in the comfort of your suite overlooking the manicured lawns.
Or you may want to take a dip in the heated outdoor pool, explore the on-site vineyard or go for a game of tennis at the Rapaura Tennis Club which is conveniently located just next door.
Dining at the lodge is a showcase of Marlborough’s gastronomic delights. The dedicated in-house chefs produce fresh, seasonal and mouth-watering meals, complemented by a superb selection of Marlborough, New Zealand and international wines.

From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
