Girls' Wairarapa Trip Away

Girls - come on! There's so much to do here in the Wairarapa, all close together and with lots of choice too.  Pack your bags!

Here are some ideas to get you thinking: 

• Shop till you drop in gorgeous Greytown - retail therapy is brilliant here at the small distinctive stores. Not a big box mall in sight.
• Is there a flavour at Schoc Chocolates you haven't tried? Then get there immediately! Check out the chocolate shoes for the girl with everything! 
• Shopping can be tiring- refuel at the many cafes and restaurants in Greytown

We feel the need to go to Martinborough! You should too:

• Head to the Martinborough isite Visitor Information Centre in The Square and grab a wine map.
• Hire a bike and cycle the vines - cellar doors are so close together you'll get to taste and learn more about our wines easily. 
• Relax over a long lunch at a vineyard or at one of the other tempting spots around Martinborough. 
• Visit Olivo and try their delicious infused olive oils. 
• A cleansing ale can hit the spot - head to Martinborough Brewery.
• Celebrate at the Union Square with a glass of bubbles. 

What else can you and the girls get up to? 

• Stretch your legs on a fully catered coastal walk
  
• Light up your visit with a lighthouse - Cape Palliser or Castlepoint
• Bike the Remutaka Cycle Trail - it's a great way to get here too 
• Explore Aratoi Museum of Art and History and take a guided tour 
• Have a beauty treatment 
• Nibble some stunning cheese at C'est Cheese
• Experience a local, social cooking class at your place with Social Kitchen Wairarapa!
• Visit some beautiful gardens 
• Stay at the boutique Royal Hotel, whose rooms have been beautifully restored with incredible attention to detail. The perfect place for a girly weekend!
• Take a candle or wreath making workshop with The Social Scent Company in Martinborough 
• Explore your inner creative with Sienna Studio where you can sip while you paint
• Treat yourself at Pure Massage while you're in Martinborough, and leave feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.

Go on make a real holiday of it! Stay in a cottage, B&B, lodge, motel or hotel. There's a great selection across the region here.
