“new zealand hosts of the year”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

if there was such an award I would give it to Trevor and Kay they are fantastic hosts who make you welcome from the moment you pull up outside their beautiful home. You would be wise to book in for dinner as the food is delicious and the wine is free flowing ( thanks to Trevor who has a dislike of empty glasses, so be warned!!!) The rooms are also very nicely decorated and despite the bad weather we still managed a dip in the hot tub !!
A truely memorable few days in great surroundings and exeptional company where we definately left as friends

“Absolutely beautiful B&B-great loaction & great service!”

We drove into the driveway and had no clue what we would find and when we came round the corner we saw the most beautiful home with a vineyard outside!
Our room was very tasteful and clean.
Trevor & Kay are great hosts and did everything to make our stay wonderful.
We recommend staying for dinner-Kay is an excellent cook and Trev serves the best wine and has lost of stories to tell!
Lots of places to see near by and we would most certainly go back!

“Fabulous place, fantastic hosts”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2010

Kay and Trevor made us unbelievably welcome from the very first minute and the purpose-built accommodation is really top class, with beautiful views over the gardens to the bay and its wildlife. The food was wonderful, as was the wine. Staying at Matahui is something of a social event, as the neighbours are likely to drop in to share the hospitality and watch the cricket/rugby. It's well worth staying in for dinner, not just for the food and wine but also to be taken through the history of the lodge and its vineyard. We really should have stayed for longer to enjoy the area to the full.
