Our lovely old villa is in the inner circle of Blenheim. We have a small garden and private courtyard area, a labrador and a cat. The housesitter(s) would have the guest room with en- suite. June July are the winter months when it is cooler, but with lovely sunny days. We have the highest sunshine hours for NZ. Blenheim town is the business & commercial centre of Marlborough which is renowned for its world class wines. The extensive waterways of the Marlborough Sounds are used by boats and fisher folk alike. We would ask the housesitter to walk the dog, feed and stroke the cat, water the plants and keep the place looking great.
