Marlborough Events

We’re so looking forward to being able to show all our motel accommodation guests a fantastic Havelock welcome for the Mussel Festival on 16th March!

There’s great entertainment, cooking demonstrations and family fun. Of course if you’d like to escape the frenzy of the festival for a few minutes, there’s no better place for a waterfront lunch or dinner than the fabulous Slip Inn, try their Sample Mussel Platter – 7 mussels with different toppings including one natural to compare the tastes… we believe you won’t find better mussels in Havelock!

Easter arrives early this year at the end of March, so it’s time to start thinking about how you might spend the holidays…… why not take a break at the top of the South, there’s no better time to take Marlborough holiday, enjoy the spectacular scenery at Harvest time.

Plus there’s so much going on, we love the Classic Fighters at Omaka, and of course you’ll want to take a trip to Havelock, enjoy a weekend lunch on the waterfront at the Slip Inn, and why not stay awhile….. phone us to arrange your Havelock accommodation.

Are you looking for accommodation when you visit the Marlborough Wine and Food Festival, why not pop out to “Destination Havelock” and stay a while at the Havelock motel and Motor Lodge…….. remember we have accommodation to suit all budgets, including a fabulous self contained cottage.

Enjoy the beautiful Marlborough scenery on the short journey from Blenheim to Havelock, and after a hard day tasting the local Marlborough fare, why not taste a little more at the award winning Slip Inn Restaurant, the only waterfront dining experience in Havelock.
