Old Saint Mary's Convent
Experience Marlborough boutique accommodation at one of New Zealand's finest Country Retreats. In the heart of Marlborough's wine growing area lies Old Saint Mary's Convent -- a haven for the discerning traveller, where luxury boutique accommodation and an intimate retreat may be found. Old Saint Mary's Convent is situated on an estate of 60 acres of vineyard and parkland and is surrounded on all sides by the vineyards and olive groves Marlborough is famous for. Spring Creek, with its abundant bird life and trout, meanders lazily through the property. It is here, beneath Marlborough's azure sky, that one may spend a pleasant afternoon sipping local vintages and sampling the provincial gourmet fare.

The rooms are very spacious and airy with easy access to the balcony.
