We just finished a fairly quick three day stay at Lisa and Andrew’s place on the outskirts of Blenheim. The cottage is few minute ride to the town center. It’s also only 10-20 minutes from many of the area’s wineries.
The cottage is lovely, spacious, well maintained, and very clean. It almost looked like a new house. It has a heating system to warm up the house on chilly mornings. Some other features that we enjoyed included but are not limited to: easy check in and checkout, a very functional kitchen, great internet service, a great deck, and two bedrooms was also quite nice. The cottage has a easy to access driveway, with a nice carport.
The views from the house are neat with sheep on one side and a vineyard on another. You will know that you’re not in a big city. Still you are short drive to shopping centers and some cafes and restaurants.
The area is very safe and quiet, even the sheep didn’t make much noise.
Lisa and Andrew were very good with their communications. They personally made sure the house was in good shape for our arrival. They were also flexible with our check in time.
We were lucky enough to spend some social time with Lisa and Andrew had a blast.

So needless to say, my wife and I would recommend Lisa and Andrew’s home and were very happy we stayed there. We actually wish we had a few more days in the area and at the cottage.
