This elegant manor house inn is set amid a peaceful parklike setting on the outskirts of Blenheim, in one of New Zealand’s chief wine regions. Mountain and Balcony guest accommodations overlook a millpond and English-style flower beds, but the Garden and Lake suites, offering separate sitting areas decorated with William Morris-patterned curtains, fine art and period antiques, are especially recommended. Timbered public spaces include a breakfast conservatory and a dining room where organic cuisine is served. An outdoor lap pool, a grass tennis court, a 5-acre lake, fly-fishing streams and a splendid rose garden are nestled within the property’s immaculately landscaped grounds. The renowned Marlborough Wine Trail and the Fairhall golf course are nearby. Heli-fishing excursions, bird-watching tours and photography lessons can be arranged. Children under the age of 15 are not permitted.
Note: The inn is closed for comprehensive renovations until September 2019.
