We had two nights in Martinborough, very rushed booking due to family problems. We stayed the first night at Margrain Vineyard and were very disappointed. Brackenridge is marketed on a par to Margrain but is three times the value and quality. We were fortunate to get a a cheap rate for the night but this only compounded the difference in... More

Nice tidy spacious room with lovely comfy pillows an duvet in studio. Very helpful staff and nice touch to have fresh coffee beans with grinder. Eggs also in the room that you can cook yourself. Only fault would be no aircon as in summer the rooms are really hot.

Loved that they provided fresh eggs to have for breakfast as well as museli and canned fruit. Bathroom has underfloor heating that works a... More

I had my wedding here and i would recommend anyone getting married do the same. The staff were more than happy to help with anything - and i was a bit of a bridezilla!! The location is great and having a day spa and pool on site was wonderful.

The facilities were good in the cottage but needs more heating options. We stayed in June on a very cold night - there is an open fire & one econoheat panel heater. The cottage is open plan & on the night we stayed even with the fire banked right up & the panel heater on it was still uncomfortably cold.... More

I booked a 2 night weekend package which included dinner and transport to/from Tirohana Estate and a spa voucher which turned out to be very good value. I requested a studio with fire place and bath which was allocated to us - the room itself was spacious and comfortable and the fireplace was great! We booked 2 hot stone massages... More

We stayed at Brackenridge as part of a yearly AGM with our car club. We shared a 4 bedroom (3 bathroom) cottage with 3 other couples and we couldn't fault the place. They provide everything you need for you to make your own breakfasts, which is great, as theres no time to stick too. You can also have a massage... More

We have stayed at Brackenridge twice now and will definitely return. Great value for money with all the amenities you need, pool, jacuzzi, spa treatments etc and located amongst Martinborough's vineyards and farms - very peaceful. Very dog friendly which is great, ample space to run around. We stayed in a two-bed cottage which was spacious and well equipped with... More
