About this house rental

Enjoy the wonderful wine village of Martinborough in our 1920's relocated farm cottage. Offering peaceful views of the surrounding farmland, The Back Paddock gives a unique sense of rural life, yet is only 1km from Martinborough township.

Enjoy a wine from one of the many local vineyards on our deck, or a cup of tea in front of our cozy woodburner. Our spacious open-plan living room and kitchen allows for entertaining and creates a comfortable, spacious environment. The kitchen is equipped with high-quality appliances, including a bread maker and with the BBQ on the deck you can choose to entertain, relax and eat at the cottage, or go out and experience the local Martinborough restaurants and pubs..
We recommend that you take a moment to view the vast, unpolluted night sky which on a clear night is simply stunning.

The Back Paddock offers wheelchair friendly parking and access ramp, as well as accessible bathroom facilities.
A second toilet reminiscent of the original 1920's design can be accessed from the deck. The Back Paddock can comfortably accommodate three couples or a family of four. A continental breakfast (cereals, bread) is provided, plus everything you need to make your own bread! (Set it up the night before and wake up in the morning to the wonderful smell of freshly made bread).

Martinborough offers many entertaining events throughout the year, such as the annual February and March fairs (one of the biggest annual fairs in the Southern Hemisphere!) , the Round The Vines walk/run also in March. and In November the infamous Toast Martinborough. The area is great for cycling and has many wonderful walks too. For more information about the Wairarapa and whats on visit: wairarapanz.com

Thank you so much for sharing this lovely gem! The bach is just gorgeous, very comfy even on a cold morning thanks to the woodburner. We couldn’t enjoy the many outdoor areas as it was too cold, but this place must be as pleasant in summer as it was for us. Both beds were really comfortable, nice hot shower and a very well equipped kitchen. Indeed a true gem!

We wish we could have stayed longer! Elaine's place was lovely, with a huge, well-stocked kitchen and plenty of space to spread out. We thoroughly enjoyed the large yard and outdoor space. The night sky was beautiful. It's a short walk (~20 min) to the town square for food and drinks. Also, very appreciated the treats in the fridge. We highly recommend this place if you're in Martinborough!

We all wished we had a longer stay at this property, great location, even better place! The beds were amazing - even the pull out couch, extremely clean with everything and more you could ever want. House is absolute perfection - if I win lotto this is the house (and everything inside) I want! Above and beyond in all categories, from the beds to location - can't wait to stay here again

Everything was spotlessly clean and the house was lovely and had been renovated since the photos, we thought the photos didn't do it justice! It was cold on the Saturday so we enjoyed having the fire going. The only thing I would mention is the chairs in the lounge are very small and the rotating one is broken. Thanks for a lovely getaway!

The house is set down a long drive with a couple of gates that you have to pass through to keep the livestock contained. It was a chilly evening, but the house was toasty and warm with the fire going. The grounds are lovely and when we come back in summer, we will make more use of the outside tables and BBQ. The beds are comfortable and it’s a very quiet area.

The photos don’t do this gorgeous property justice. Thoughtful, beautiful touches in every room, we found everything we could possibly need and more. To be in such a wonderful, homey space, surrounded by sheep and the night-time frog chorus, yet also only ten minutes’ walk to Martinborough Square, was such a treat.

Was a fantastic place to stay, so close to Martinborough and the host had done a fantastic job in making the house feel homely as soon as we walked in! It was a lovely touch to have fresh flowers. Quiet, rural feeling location but so close to town. A great base for a weekend of exploring Martinborough. Would highly recommend!

It is completely peaceful and quiet! Only stay here if you plan to be secluded or like to be secluded. It takes about 10-15 minutes just to get off the mountain. That wasn’t an issue for us because we wanted the time for our little family. My little family LOVED this place 🥰♥️

Thank you Elaine, you have a wonderful place and we only wish we could've stayed longer. Privacy and quiet, yet only a 10 minute stroll to the square and all the amenities we needed. Very comfortable home, a great nights sleep and wow the bathroom/shower we loved after a long day on the bikes.

This has all the essentials for a family or group. The small touches make a difference. I will say we asked for early check in and this showed as a couple of things were missed but minor in the big scheme of things. When all the extras are included and you find yourself in a home away from home it was easy
