A quick 3 hour trip the vineyards of Martinborough from Wanganui is worth it.
We had dinner at the Martinborough Hotel - good food, reasonable price and great wine and beer.
The Martinborough Hotel is actually one of the more affordable places in town. We visited other cafes / restaurants in Martinborough last year and we paid $75 for 2 people for dinner, excluding the $12/glass of wine. With Martinborough Hotel, we only paid $50 plus our drinks which were below $8 each.
The Martinborough Hotel is located at the square, town center. It's the only two-story building so it's very hard to miss. I believe there is a wifi hotspot in the location but you'd need to pay for it - eg Zenbu. I think Martinborough needs to sponsor free wifi for tourists - even just 100 mb per day is good - just like Mcdonald's does it.
Martinborough is a 60 minute drive from Wellington.
