Duncannon Vintage Guests Accommodation

Duncannon provides the perfect accommodation for guests working in Marlborough during the vintage (grape harvest) season. We are able to alter our operations during the vintage season in order to provide guests with suitable sleeping conditions, day and night.

Duncannon accommodation enables guests to socialize with workmates and others while being large enough for quiet time as well. We have plenty of facilities, which are serviced by our housekeepers daily. You don’t wait for a shower here! Let us look after you this vintage season.

The Viticulture Industry

Marlborough is recognized in New Zealand and globally as a world class wine region, with its sauvignon blanc wines gaining particular recognition. Duncannon works closely with the viticulture industry to ensure workers are accommodated well and that overseas travelers believe Marlborough to be a destination worth experiencing. Travelers who have worked in the Marlborough district are able to see their efforts in the form of Marlborough wines exported globally.

Our Guests

How we make things easy and what you need to plan.
Once you’ve been accepted for a position with a winery in Marlborough, you’ll need to consider:

Where you might like to stay
How you will travel to you accommodation once you arrive in Blenheim
How you might get to and from work each day.
What sights you’d like to see while you are here

The Duncannon team are on hand to make all of this very easy for you. At Duncannon we host mostly Vintage staff during the months of March and April so there will be plenty of people to meet and make further travel plans with. Some you may have met before. We’ll collect you when you arrive in Blenheim if you need us. We are able to provide transport to and from work in one of our many vehicles, and we can recommend sites not to miss while you are in the district. Check out our events calendar displayed in reception so you can plan what you’d like to be involved with. Our annual Easter Egg hunt has proven to be a season highlight!
Our team prepares an annual events calendar aimed to entertain and delight guests during their stay with us at Duncannon. We also work to promote our district and the local activities planned during the Vintage season. These are advertised at Duncannon and made possible by the Duncannon team.
