Take a Tour

A stay at the Waipara Valley Escape is more than a comfortable room for the night. After wine tastings at local vineyards you can enjoy relaxing in bean bags on the deck, watching the awesome sunsets or cozying up by the fire with a good book. A trip to the Saturday farmers market may see you assembling a delicious platter of local produce, or firing up the barbecue or cooking in the well appointed kitchen.
