St Leonards Vineyard Cottages Qualmark Gold - 5 Star Boutique Accommodation.

St Leonards Vineyard Cottages is a luxurious retreat amongst the vines in Marlborough, New Zealand, that accommodates guests on vacation, at work or celebrating special occasions.

​Our self-catering boutique cottage accommodation is a special collection of traditional buildings on a former sheep farm that have retained their original charm while offering luxurious comfort and privacy amongst the vines.

We think the small touches are important - so we leave Whittaker's Chocolate Lovers chocolates on a S H U P pottery dish by Sharon with a handwritten farewell card in our cottages on our guests’ last afternoon 👋🥰🍋🌿

⭐ Best Practice: Business Plan
⭐ Best Practice: Marketing & Branding

⭐ Best Practice: Business Improvement Processes
⭐ Best Practice: Restoring Nature

🍋 Venue Spotlight: St Leonards Vineyard Cottages

One of the beautiful settings in The Little Orange Tree Collection, St Leonards Vineyard Cottages is a little bit countryside, a little bit vineyard and full of character.

And what we love most is that there are a few different ways to make your celebration here your own.

🌿 The Lawn
The beautiful garden setting included with our Little Orange Tree celebrations, with your ceremony beneath the pergola surrounded by established gardens, greenery and a little bit of farm life.

🍋 The Orchard
Want something a little different? You can choose to add the beautiful lemon grove to your celebration and say your vows amongst the trees, surrounded by the Marlborough countryside.

🏡 The Stables
For couples wanting the full St Leonards experience, The Stables option includes pre wedding preparation, the cottage lawn and eastern lemon orchard, plus one night's accommodation for two.

Each option brings its own little bit of magic to St Leonards, with The Orchard and The Stables available at an additional cost.

A place to gather, celebrate and make it your own. 🤍

And yes… you can even have a sheep walk you down the aisle. 🐑😂
Because why have a traditional aisle entrance when you can have a sheep?

We’ve resown the front lawn now it’s time to set up the tennis court for summer - it’s a long road to the perfect tennis court 📏🎾☀️

There’s normal, there’s cutely teeny then there’s really really strange 😳 - never a dull moment with the ‘girls’

The occasional bright moon sometimes tricks birds nesting in our trees that it’s daybreak. With the clock ticking over to midnight they’ve got a big night ahead waiting for the sun to actually rise!
