| Description | Old St Mary's Convent is a building with a proud and colourful history. Built in Blenheim in 1901 for the Sisters of Mercy, the former nineteen-bedroom convent has been moved and expertly restored to its present day splendour. The convent is situated on 60 acres of vineyards and parkland in the heart of Marlborough's wine area. This is luxury accommodation in a truly unique setting. |
