The bed linen, fluffy towels, plates and cutlery are a quality choice. The facilities are excellent. Pleasant, private outdoor area is a comfortable place to relax for a chat. We confidently recommend Two Tree Lodge and always return when visiting the South Island.

We stayed here for 2 nights with our 2 teenagers in a 2-bedroom villa. It's a peaceful place to stay, with views out over the vineyards and mountain range. We loved the pool and also played tennis. Our villa was clean, comfortable, spacious and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Holiday stop

Reviewed By ChristchurchGeorgie

We stayed two nights here in a one bedroom unit which was very clean and comfortable. A couple of things which were impressive was the heated towel rail and decent toilet paper ( not that thin stuff that is public places). Close to centre and sunny. Would definitely stay here again.

Walnut Block Cottages

Two luxurious one bedroom cottages set amongst the vines, Walnut Block Cottages offer a haven of seclusion and comfort in a relaxed and inspiring environment.

Amazing getaway!

Reviewed By NZMidds

A truly magical place to spend some time. The cottage is located in the vineyard so when your in bed you look out directly at vines. You can also loose yourself walking through the grapes- which is great fun. It has a lounge and well equipped kitchen. The cottage is clean and very well maintained with all the thinks you might expect. I’d highly recommend Walnut Block for your next getaway. It’s a romantic spot, out of town that makes you feel like you’ve had a very special escape. Taxis to and from town are quick and easy.

In urgent need of modernisation

Reviewed By dnb63

Looks great from the outside, but the interior is very tired. Its clean and tidy, but you sink deep into an old stained sofa, the bed linen is not great, and the bathroom and kitchen are pretty horrible. With an interior update, this place could be a little gem. Given the previous 2 nights we stayed in motels with modern rooms, fantastic linen and modern bathrooms for this same price, this place was definitely over-priced

Amazing must stay B and B

Reviewed By jonsean

Stayed here for one night before the Picton Ferry. Welcomed on arrival and made to feel welcome. Room, bathroom and small living room were very well maintained and appropriately decorated for the period of the building. Home made biscuits and a selection of hot drinks available. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast far more than we expected. A continental with homemade preserves, muesli and breads. Also a menu for cooked items. Scrambled eggs on toast was delicious. all served by the hosts on the balcony. Loved our stay and highly recommend.
