The Tin Hut dates from 1857 and has a colourful history as a local pub. 

For 151 years the Tin Hut has serviced travellers, visitors and the local South Wairarapa community. The Tin Hut was named in 1923 when the original pub, The Tauherenikau Hotel, burnt down. A temporary premise, a corrugated iron hut, was constructed and the locals affectionately named it The Tin Hut.

In 2004 Marcus Darley bought the Tin Hut with the view to developing an environment which could be soothing and reflective for visitors, a focal point for the South Wairarapa district and meet the needs of families.

Located on the main road between Greytown and Featherston, The Tin Hut provides a chic, informal dining area, a comfortable and warm bar to ease winter chills, and a beautiful garden to while away lazy sunny days.

  

Your Host – Marcus Darley

Marcus’s 35-plus years in the hospitality industry started when he set up and managed several pubs, bars and restaurants for Lion Breweries, Wellington. In 1989, Marcus, Tim Harding and the late Dean Dunlop opened Brassiere Flipp, which they ran for twelve successful years.

The Wairarapa gained a fantastic hospitality professional in 2001 when Marcus moved to Martinborough and then Greytown where he helped set up The White Swan and tutored at hospitality and catering schools in the Wairarapa and Wellington. In 2003 Marcus purchased the Tin Hut, a venue where he can indulge his passion for hospitality, express his creativity in the interior renovations and developing gardens, nurture animals, vegetables and herbs whose produce support his philosophy on eating well with locally produced food.

Marcus’s passion for hospitality guarantees excellent service and choice as you gaze across idyllic landscapes.
