We stayed at Mark’s place for several months over winter and felt very much at home here. The house is modern, well insulated, double glazed, and positioned to capture all day sun. There is also a good heat pump for chilly mornings and evenings. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to cook full meals (full stove, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher and a good range of pots, pans, plates, glasses, etc, etc). The living space is comfortable, with big dining table, comfortable couch, smart TV, DVD player and a wide range of DVD’s to watch. There are 2 bedrooms (both queen). We slept in the Master and found it very comfortable. There is good shower with plenty of hot water, and we really appreciated having both a washer and dryer to use.
Mark’s place is in a great location, close to the centre of town. We enjoyed regular walks around the Palliser vineyard and the Rapaki farm walk, and the two bikes are a great addition for exploring Martinborough’s vineyards.
Mark has been really great to deal with, responding quickly and happy to answer any questions we had. Check-in was super easy with a lock-box.
Overall, an excellent place for both long-term stay, weekend getaways or anything in between.
