About this property
Just 3 minutes walk from the marina this Family getaway also has a Games room!
All new rebuild of a long standing local bach has been fitted out with relaxation, calm and family fun in mind. Located in a central but quiet area, what better place to relax than on the deck under the flowering silk tree, have a BBQ, play on the lawn or have a game of pool and darts in the games room.
Amble 3 minutes down the road to the marina (which has a Bar/Restaurant, chandleries, launching ramp, boat hire etc.) - the main gateway to the Marlborough Sounds! Picton is 5 minutes drive away and the vineyards of Marlborough are just 30 minutes away. Plus so much more.
A MARINA BERTH is available during your stay on request. Just let us know you are bringing a boat and it's size.
