    Excellent accommodation in vineyards

    Vintners Retreat is an excellent place to stay if you are visiting Marlborough. Lovely villas set adjacent to the vineyards, close to many wineries including five within walking distance. Nice quiet environment, low traffic easy access and close to Renwick for restaurants, groceries etc.
