Hotels

As
the locals - that is all New Zealand wine buffs - will tell you
the wines from the vinyards around Martinborough in the Wairarapa
are some of the best in the country.
In
fact, some say Martinborough has the best but it is only by heading
down there you'll discover for yourself.
Martinborough
is the perfect place to stay if you are travelling to or from Wellington
and you have a day or so to spare. Not only are there the wines,
but on the nearby Wairarapa Coast you can get to the Cape
Palliser lighthouse and Cape Palliser seal
colony.
In
Martinborough we can highly recommend eating in the Martinborough
Hotel (pictured above) where you get terrific meals at good prices.
The company is very pleasant and the atmosphere is welcoming.
