Savouring fine foods and award-winning
wines are only a few of the activities the Marlborough region
has to offer. Situated in the sunny, north-eastern corner of
the South Island, Marlborough is the destination for
recreational pursuits that include the physical as well as the
more cultural such as the wide-ranging arts scene.
Marlborough is recognised as the wine
capital of New Zealand where hot summers, cool winters and
fertile, alluvial soils have set the foundation for its
internationally-acclaimed Sauvignon Blanc. And what better way
to accompany the region's prized, culinary delights.
For those looking to escape from the
pressures of city living, or simply experience what New
Zealand has to offer, Marlborough incorporates relaxation with
diversity. Coastal retreats, rivers, mountains and rural
plains, in a small geographic area offer the perfect
opportunity to go fishing, sailing, diving, swimming,
kayaking, tramping or hunting, then enjoy the warm hospitality
at any of Marlborough's restaurants or eateries. |
