The Dry Olive Homestay and Cottage Accommodation, Marlborough, New Zealand
Welcome to The Dry Olive!

A place to relax, sample serenity and enjoy what Marlborough  has to offer.

Situated just two minutes from Blenheim township in a rural residential setting with great walking and mountain biking tracks to our door, our home  and luxury cottage are both purpose-built for bed & breakfast accommodation.

A scrumptious continental breakfast is included whether you are staying in the house or the cottage.
