Our venue
Set in a charming historic cottage, Mora Wines & Artisan Kitchen offers a venue rich in character and deeply rooted in the Arrowtown community. Known as Walnut Cottage—named after the grand walnut tree gracing the lawn—this beautifully restored space is home to our restaurant and cellar door, surrounded by established gardens that provide a picturesque setting year-round.
For a more private and weatherproof option, our covered louvre area offers comfort and flexibility. With pull-down sides and integrated heaters, it’s a cosy, all-season space perfect for intimate gatherings or special celebrations.
