Hidden Valley Getaway

Hidden Valley Getaway, more commonly known as "The Winery", was once a working vineyard/ winery, known as the Hidden Valley Vineyard.

The winery building was built in 1999 out of straw bales. Current owners, and your hosts, Bridget and Jono Hartnell (who live onsite) have recently converted this characteristic building into a fully functional, modern and charming house. Spacious in size, this nearly 200 square metre house is the perfect getaway for family and friend groups.

The space
The space consists of 3 bedrooms, a large lounge, a large games room/ second lounge area, kitchen, bathroom, and separate toilet.

Nestled in the Moiki Valley, 10ks from Martinborough and 12ks from Greytown, you will find yourself surrounded by farmland and native bush reserves.

The kitchen is well equipped with a dish washer, fridge freezer, microwave, full oven, and all required cutleries. We provide tea, coffee and sugar, otherwise this is fully self-catered.

We have a new BBQ/ outdoor pergola area for our guests to enjoy. Our BBQ is self-cleaning, so please leave it how you found it.

The two large living areas each contain a TV with free view, Netflix and other smart TV viewings. A pool table and bar area are found in the games room.

We have a selection of board games and outdoor games available for your entertainment during your stay.

Hidden Valley Homestay can comfortably sleep 9 people with the option to sleep a further 2- 4 free of charge (see details below).

BEDROOMS
1- King bed
2- Queen bed and single

Amazing Getaway
Both families had a fantastic 3 nights at this beautiful property while using it as a base to enjoy the region. Had everything you needed - including linen and towels - for a great stay. Only downside was the heat pump struggles to warm such a large space in winter, but an extra layer on while inside fixes that. Totally recommend for anyone wanting to have a relaxing getaway in a beautiful part of Aotearoa.

Lovely setting and space for two families
We appreciate that this house had all we needed for two peaceful nights. We played yard games, woke up to peaceful morning watching birds and sheep, cooked some of our meals, and had plenty of sleeping space. We worried that only one bathroom with five folks would feel a little tricky, but we made it work (having an outside door to the toilet room let us utilize the shower/toilet as two separate rooms), and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Communications with the host were prompt, kind, and easy. Would stay here again!

A lovely place to stay to enjoy the peace and quiet. Perfectly located to ensure an experience of being away and having a break. Heaps of space to hangout together or just wander off and read a book. Great for kids or adults or both. Highly recommend!

Perfect spot for family and friends to connect
We had a wonderful time over New Years at this lovely property. Great for walks down the rural roads, playing games, cooking and enjoying each others company. Pool table and lawn games were a treat. Beds cosy and great linens. Well appointed, kitchen had what we needed and lots of dishes/cutlery. Thanks so much for having us.
