We had a wonderful three nights at Satu’s vineyard cottage. It is idyllic, very peaceful looking out over the vines. All the facilities were as described and the cottage has everything you need and is very comfortable.
Satu gave us some great recommendations and lent us bicycles and helmets so we could tour the vineyards nearby. We’d recommend Alan Scott and Rock Ferry for tastings; we also ate at Rock Ferry - delicious. Later on Satu gave us a vineyard tutorial in the vines and then a tasting. It was wonderful as we had many questions after seeing the many vineyards in the area. Satu also told us many things about living in Marlborough. Next day we had a Mail Boat Cruise (Beachcomber) from Picton which was really great as we were lucky enough to see Hector and Bottlenose dolphins as well as some seals. The skipper was passionate about conservation of the area so we learnt a lot here too.
Many thanks Satu for a fabulous stay; we’ll be opening a bottle of your bubbly later today.
