About this property

Railway Cottage - Home away from Home

This lovely cozy retreat is situated in the heart of Martinborough and its surrounding vineyards, cafes, and shops. It's just two minutes walk to the village and an easy walk to some of the best vineyards in the district.

The cottage offers all the charm of yesteryear mixed with modern features and appliances. Railway Cottage's open plan living flows out to a covered deck. The perfect outdoor setting for dining, enjoying the country air or just soaking up the sun with a good book.

If you experience one of those rainy days you can relax in front of the gas fire, entertaining yourself with the selection of DVD's, books and board games available.

There are two mountain bikes available onsite if you are looking for some exercise.

A lovely Martinborough retreat
We had a lovely stay at the Railway Cottage! The cottage was very sweet, clean and well equipped. The location is excellent, a few minutes walk away from the center of Martinborough and the host, Cheryl was lovely and very accommodating. Would highly recommend staying here!

Girls get away
The property was in the best location for us , in the same street as our bike rental, 3 minutes to centre of town so we could just park our car up till it was time to go home. The deck area is where we spent our time at the house and with it having shelter by the trees and a roof on we could stay there in all weathers. We had the best time, our only problem was sandflys we did get bitten a bit.
