Situated at the top of the South Island and in New Zealand's sunniest province, Marlborough's Timara Lodge is ideally placed to offer its guests a memorable experience.

Marlborough is endowed with a magnificent beauty, made up of stunning hills and crystal clear waterways. Townships in the immediate region include Blenheim, Seddon, Picton and Havelock.

Marlborough's central location provides a base for many wine companies and a burgeoning gourmet food industry. Visitors to the region often leave with bottles of wine from internationally renowned labels such as Spy Valley, Cloudy Bay, Montana and Hunters wines.

A little further a field, you can cruise the magnificent Marlborough Sounds waterways or walk the renowned Queen Charlotte Track experiencing native bush and bird life. For the more adventurous, you can go whale watching and swim with dolphins at nearby Kaikoura, or try fly-fishing at one of the many local rivers.

Marlborough, the region with heart, offers something for all visitors.
