Welcome to El Grouso, a one-of-a-kind stay with a character and uniqueness all its own. Relax in our courtyard rooms — perfect for time away with friends — set on Rapaura Road in the very heart of the wine region, just minutes from local restaurants and bars. Our boutique property is adults-only 18+, and each space is thoughtfully designed for couples to share. Two Spanish-style courtyard rooms share a central bathroom with a full vanity and toilet, as well as a separate shower room. The courtyard is wonderfully private, on sunny days, becomes a warm, sheltered space to relax — perfect for reading a book or enjoying a glass of local wine. The two rooms are beautifully thought out for your comfort On arrival, you’ll be welcomed with complimentary wine and light snacks to help you settle in. Once a cellar door for Giesen’s Winery, the property has since been transformed by its current owners.

We love hosting visitors and welcoming them to this beautiful region. We enjoy riding motorcycles, going fishing, taking our RV away, spending time with friends and family, and travelling when time permits.

The area is right in the heart of Marlborough Wineries. We are situated to many cellar doors and restaurants. There are great cycle ways to many places or you can take a walk to the river.
