Hedgerows house is a tidy, partially renovated 1960's home comfortable for 6 people. It is suitable for families and we also welcome small pets. It is situated at the back of a working Hydroponic strawberry farm which includes a Real Fruit Icecream shop.
Kitchen:
The kitchen is clean, tidy and well-equipped with all the essentials including a stove top, oven, Airfryer, Microwave, Nespresso machine, Stand mixer and fridge/freezer.
Living Room / Heating:
The living room is bright and has a fireplace for use during the colder months. We also have a newly installed heatpump in the dining room and a HRV heat transfer system thoughout the house. The TV is a smart TV with Netflix and is a few years old, we include instructions on how to use it as it can be a little confusing at first.
Bedrooms:
All bedrooms have room to hang and store clothing. New carpet has been installed throughout the living, hall and bedroom spaces. Bedroom 1 has a Queen bed. Bedroom 2 has a Bunk bed. And Bedroom 3 has a Double bed. A portable cot and highchair are also available upon request.
Bathroom:
A spacious bathroom has the toilet, shower over the bath, storage and a small heated towel rail.
Laundry:
Old and rustic, the laundry is located outside, just out the front door. It is minimal with a new front loading washing machine.
Location:
We are located on the outskirts of town and within a 10 minute walk to the Weswood Shopping complex in Springlands.
Outdoor Area:
The front of the house consists of a large gravel parking area with ample parking space. There is a large fenced front yard which has a small seating area for outdoor dining. While we are semi rural, the house is located next to a 50km/hr road which can be busy and slightly noisy at times.
We have 2 Swiss Valais weathers who are the farm pets, Coco and Loki. They are friendly and curious and love to meet people. You will see them around the farm.
Communication is strongly encouraged and appreciated by us pre, during and after your stay. Please txt or call us for anything we can help you with, any questions you might have or any suggestions to improve our space. I am often on site working so are available if needed. We’re are happy to help and reply at any time of the day.
If you need any recommendations for places to go, wineries to visit, restaurants or bars, send us a message.
☆☆☆It is important to know Hedgerows house is part of a GAP certified working hydroponic strawberry farm. The house has a separate driveway and yard but is situated close to the shop, staffroom and packhouse. The shop is open to the public from September until January and the opening hours are generally 12pm to 4pm. This creates noise but we have never had complaints as people are generally out and about at this time. Our picking staff start earlier but are considerate of guests staying with us. We are happy to show people around the farm and encourage people to come and try the popular strawberry icecream. We do not mind guests wandering around after hours but do ask that people do not enter the glasshouses and are conscious of general health and safety. ☆☆☆
We really hope you have a great time in Marlborough and enjoy the experience of staying on a strawberry farm!
Cheers
Jasmine and Nikolai
