A little haven, idyllically set in the middle of a vineyard. Great heated lap pool. Very good wifi and TV. Owner even left milk and a bottle of his own Sauvignon Blanc in the fridge. We spent quite some hours touring the local vineyards by car and bike.
What an ultimate experience staying at Misty Cove! After biking around wineries for the day we got to sleep in our own vineyard. After a late swim, we watched the sunset before retreating inside to a large space where we had complimentry wine and sat in front of the fire.

Property was really nice with a luxurious feel.As we arrived late Lighting on the path was an issue as it was very dark. The house was also very cold till the heating caught up but this would not be an issue with an earlier arrival.Overall highly recommend and would stay again.

I wanted to stay in a winery. However, this was a tasting room and as such, it would work would tastings, but not so good for accommodations

A great place to stay for a couple... and, in our case, two small dogs. Everything you need, although no freezer or laundry facility. The fridge is a wine fridge but it's huge and was plenty big enough for our needs. Tons of room, excellent bathroom, comfortable bed, wifi, large tv. Easy access to Havelock and Queen Charlotte Sound, Blenheim, Picton, and Rapara Beach (no good for swimming but awesome ruggedness), plus heaps of wineries to explore.
