Mothers Day Girls Weekend

Lovely stay at Crab Apple. Endorse other reviews - lots of extra touches that made us feel welcomed, everything one needs plus, clean, and as its getting colder, warm and cosy. Great fire that we had no trouble lighting. Within walking distance of everything we wanted. Thank you Alustair, its a gem of a place.

Beautiful spot, lovely added touches

We enjoyed our stay here so much! A fantastic location just off the square with wonderful extras. Arriving on Friday evening to find a fridge stocked with breakfast provisions, ice ready, fresh flowers, fruit and baking. The beds were beautifully made and super comfortable. It was a pretty cold weekend so the fire was very welcomed. Will very happily stay again, thanks Alastair!

Tidy and in an excellent location

Smooth check-in process and great value. The provided bacon and eggs for breakfast was delicious and the freshly cut flowers were a nice touch. Round the corner from a great bike rental place and the shops and eateries that Martinborough has to offer. If you have kids, there's plenty of space in the back yard for them to run around in. We will definitely stay again when we are next in the area!

Delightful!

My friend and I had such a lovely stay here. So close to town, with everything we needed. The place is dated but clean, well appointed and full of lovely thoughtful touches! Goodies in the fridge, firewood, emergency sanitary products and comfy beds. We found our car battery had died when we were rushed to get out to Patuna Chasm, and were so grateful to the lovely neighbour who came to our rescue. It was my 6th stay in Martinborough and my friend's first, and we both agree it was the best pad we had for our 3 week road trip. Thank you!

Central convenience

Older cottage though kept clean and the eggs and bacon provided for breakfast were of a very high quality. No Wi-Fi a blessing to get the kids out on the big back lawn.

Nice wee cottage

This is a nice old cottage which provides a good base in Martinborough, being only a couple of blocks from the centre on a quiet side road. The property is not modernised, and is a bit tatty round the edges, but clean, comfortable and fully functional (note no wi-fi so far as I'm aware). To me it felt like going to stay in one's parent's house.Communication with the owner was minimal but perfectly sufficient. He provides a generous supply of breakfast items.So in summary, a nice comfortable kiwi cottage, but maybe not for you if you want all mod cons.

Quaint Cottage Stay

Crab tree cottage is so quaint it’s like stepping back in time. The house was beautifully set up with flowers in every room such a thoughtful touch also fresh bacon and eggs fruit and extras ….even home-made baking was waiting for us those little touches make all the difference. Thank you. It was super close to town which was excellent for strolling, going for dinner or out for a drink. Plenty of fresh towels, warm and comfortable beds. Huge and peaceful yard. We loved our morning coffees on the back deck. Highly recommend staying here. We will be back.
