Why choose a Retirement Village in Marlborough?

If you’re looking for a geographically diverse, yet beautiful spot to spend your later years, Marlborough can offer fantastic choices for retirement living.

Surrounding the main town of Blenheim, you’ll find over 150 wineries where you can enjoy meeting friends and family for a glass over lunch. The region makes up three quarters of New Zealand’s wine production and has access to world-renowned seafood from the Marlborough Sounds, so you’re guaranteed to find something to satisfy your tastebuds!

The bustling port and maritime life of Picton is the perfect base to connect with the North Island, with Wellington just a short ferry ride across the Cook Strait to see an exhibition at Te Papa or go to a sports games or concert.

Like all New Zealand communities, there are plenty of activities on offer on your village’s doorstep as well as within the village, so you can be as involved as you like, where and how you like. If you prefer to spend your days more quietly, that’s fine too.
