Hotels, vineyard villas, country retreats and plenty of Airbnbs and holiday homes, most within walking or cycling distance of the cellar doors.
Staying the night turns a busy day trip into a proper weekend: dinner without watching the clock, a slow breakfast, and nobody stuck being the sober driver. There's a good spread of places to stay, from the heritage hotel on the Square to vineyard villas and country retreats, plus a lot of Airbnbs and holiday homes.
Most of Martinborough is walkable from the Square, so staying in or near the village means you can park the car on Saturday and leave it there. Book early for summer weekends and big events, when the whole village fills up.
Martinborough has a lot of Airbnbs and holiday homes, from cottages a few streets from the Square to farmhouses out among the vines. They're a great fit for groups and families, and plenty are within walking or cycling distance of the cellar doors. Local agencies look after collections of holiday homes too.
Right on the Square, with Union Square Bistro downstairs. Walk to dinner, cycle to the cellar doors.
