We are centrally located, a 2-minute drive or an easy walk to the town centre, supermarket, cafés and restaurants, stadium, gyms, pool, i-SITE, railway station and riverside walk. In addition, Marlborough's many fabulous wineries and walking and bike trails are only a short drive away.
The 10-unit motel has 7 spacious 1 to 3-bedroom units and 3 studios, one of which has access facilities. All are fully furnished with kitchen facilities, high-speed WiFi, Sky TV 50+ channels and much more. With a fenced in children's Wendy house, swimming pool, guest laundry and guest BBQ, we hope to ensure both adults and children have a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
