Picture perfect location, far from the madding crowd, yet only a short drive to great cafes. Staff friendly, informative and go the extra mile.

We had a six course degustation dinner, which was very nice, although we missed some good wine suggestions to go with... More

Magic to sit out on balcony with a drink at dusk watching the lights grow brighter. Dinner was fantastic. Husband said best soup he'd ever had (and he's a soup... More

This is a walk back in time and when you hear the history of how the Estate happened - it makes it special just be to part of the scene. The bushwalks around the property are great. The views of Auckland from your Romeo & Juliet balconies at night are breathtaking. All the meals we've had there have been exceptional.... More
