Wonderful home, inside and out

We loved our stay and enjoyed using the deck and outdoor area. In the evening the temperature dropped but we were very cosy with the central heating and quality bedding. We've already booked to stay again.

Charming Little White Bach

From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. Fully fenced which was just right for our Labrador. The interior of the house very tastefully decorated. Loved the indoor outdoor flow and and easy walk to the square. Thanks Lisa for a lovely stay, we’ll certainly be back.

Fabulous!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Little White Bach. The location is perfect to explore the town and the vineyards, all of which are a close drive or cycle away. The house has all the amenities you could want for a really comfortable, peaceful break. The garden is beautiful and fully fenced, so ideal for the dog. We could not have asked for more and would definitely return in the future.

Short getaway

Great little property, modern and clean. The two decks were handy to follow the sun. The kitchen amenities had all the basics and everything we needed for our stay. So nice to take our small dog with us and have a nice property to stay in which isn't always the case. Great communication with Lisa. We would definately stay again!

Cozy, comfortable and convenient

I grew up in the area, but actually staying *in* Martinborough was a novelty for me. And what a wonderful little home to experience a town that has changed a LOT since I was a kid. First things first: the house is adorable and cozy. We were there in winter, and its central heating kept us nice and warm. We would absolutely stay here again next time we're in the area. We didn't really get to make use of the deck and garden, but I can only imagine that a cup of tea with the birds first thing in the morning would be magical. Everything in town is so compact that talking about the convenience of this home is a bit of a misdirection. Yes, it's very convenient, but Martinborough is very convenient. Nothing in town is far away. It was an easy walk to the square and everything in it. So I'm going to look at the bigger picture: if you take the time to get out of the vineyards, the Wairarapa is an endless collection of wonderful experiences that are all at least 20 minutes away from everything else. It's hardly a burden, but there's a lot of driving rural roads to get anywhere, including home. But after a full day of black sand (Lake Ferry), seals (Palliser), unexpected hikes (Putangirua), it was effortless to roll back into Martinborough and pull up to this little house for a quiet night where we enjoyed the kiwi dip left for us by our host. Everything works, and the house is well-equipped and stocked. A gem of a home.

We bought and renovated the bach in 2019 and moved into the house whilst we built our home on the back section. We have loved living in it and thought it would be the perfect little getaway for people who want something a bit different in Martinborough.
