Description from owner

Description

The Winedrinkers Cottage was built in 1910 and shifted to its current semi rural site in the early 2000's. It is a four minute drive to central Carterton and four minutes the other way to Greytown. The owners love living in Wairarapa as much as they love a glass of wine in the evenings. The cottage is fully self contained with two queen size bedrooms, a sunroom, bathroom with shower and laundry. A full size kitchen and a deck to dine from, looking out to the peaceful rural surroundings. Carterton is known as the heart of the Wairarapa, there are many wonderful wineries in the area to visit, along with fresh and funky eateries.

The main house is hidden by a large hedge so after arriving you can be guaranteed to be able to stay in privacy. We have plenty of parking and a bike or two able to be borrowed should you wish to exert yourself.
