dragonfly cottage bnb is owned privately and is situated beside acres of vineyards. Among beautiful gardens with song birds in the trees on the property. The bnb offers 4 star accommodation with beautiful garden views. Numerous walks around the property including a 1 minute walk surrounding you with hills and grapevines. 5 mins walk up the road is the Grovetown Lagoon and the Wairua River. The busy Grovetown Hotel to wet your whistle ( 5 min walk) a wonderful pub and surroundings for locals and visitors. No busy traffic or a bustling town of round-a-bouts, give-way signs or big truckers. The country walk is idyllic so take your camera or Jump into the car and drive 3 kms to the township. dragonflycottagebnb is a quiet and peaceful place to stay and surrounded by beautiful gardens for your senses body to unwind in either in the spa pool or afternoon sun in the bbq area or simply sit in one of the big bean chairs under the trees with a glass of wine or a cuppa.
"Tena korua and welcome. Please come in and make yourself comfortable. Tea or Coffee or simply a cold fresh glass of spring water from my tap. It is such a pleasure to host you here at the bed and breakfast and it is my sincere wish you leave with precious memories of your stay and your holiday in NZ. I love my garden and very much hope you like it too. I love to cook and if you give me a days notice I will prepare a delicious dinner/dessert for your evening meal. After a day of touring around the Marlborough Wine Region of NZ what more can you ask for to relax.
The Grovetown Lagoon is just 5 minutes up the road and there are bench seats to sit and admire the many birds that come to the sanctuary to rest and feed and breed. The Lagoon opened up the May 2019 and many cyclists and walkers enjoy the 1hr trek around the Lagoon finishing up at the Wairau River. The Grovetown Hotel is at the end of Street offering a restaurant and is very popular with the locals. A bustling fire place in the winter and a wonderful outside area with a water wheel and tables and chairs on those hot summer days with a beer or a glass of wine. Couples in particular love the location and rate it 8.5. There are many wineries around the area and I have brochures to browse through, either book a wine tour or simply do the wine trail yourself in your car from my wine trail maps. Visit the Chocolate Factory or Omaka Knights in the sky Peter Jackson WW11 war planes just to name a few of the attractions here in Blenheim. Picton is aq 20 minute drive and offers many restaurants, cafes and shops along side the beach of the Picton foreshore.
