We are ten kilometres (a ten-minute drive) from Martinborough Square. Only a two-minute drive from the famous Martinborough Tree Church and award winning Blue Earth Estate. Surrounded by a working farm,  we are immersed in stunning natural beauty. Depending on the season the adjoining paddocks can be housing sheep, cows, or even prize bulls. Due to the beautiful rural location, you will also be lucky enough to spot native birds in abundance. We look forward to sharing the tranquility of Hautotara with you.
