We were also so delighted with the fresh bread, butter eggs and milk left by the amazing hosts!! We will be recommending our friends and family book themselves a nice getaway, also spoke about how nice and cozy it would be as a winter escape with the log burner. Very impressed ##### Emerson P.

Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rolayo O. 3 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nature and Comfort in Perfect Harmony We spent a weekend at the Glade in Martinborough, and it’s truly a fantastic getaway for anyone seeking a blend of comfort and nature. The secluded location, surrounded by native trees and a beautiful stream, created the perfect setting for a peaceful escape. Strolling through the bush and feeding the eels added a unique touch to the experience. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, including a high-quality gas cooktop and coffee maker, while the bathroom—with its garden views from the shower—was a real highlight. Our only suggestion would be to have the outdoor furniture cleaned of pre-existing bird droppings, as we had to handle it ourselves before use. This was a minor inconvenience in an otherwise wonderful stay. Overall, it’s an ideal spot to unwind and recharge, and we’d gladly return. ##### Rolayo O.
