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.

Perfect Stay
Was beyond impressed with our stay at Railway Cottage. Home was charming and very well maintained and clean. The beds were comfy and exactly what we needed after a long drive. Wish we had been able to stay longer, next time!

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.

Perfect, charming cottage
We loved our night at the railway cottage. Unbeatable location about 3 minute walk to the square, lovely house with three bedrooms and cozy lounge, nice deck looking out onto a big backyard with fruit trees. No complaints, everything was great :)
