Reasons To
Visit New Zealand

  • Food & wine

    This small nation has established a name for fabulous wineries, many internationally acclaimed. Whilst most will point connoisseurs to the Marlborough region for the finest vintages, Hawkes Bay and Martinborough should not be ignored. A trip here would not be complete without trying the local 'fush 'n' chups' or traditional Maori fare either.

    Food & wine

  • Landscapes

    For a small country, New Zealand incorporates landscapes as diverse as they come. Mountains, volcanoes, beaches, lakes, fiords, valleys and caves - to the everyday traveller these remarkable sights are other-worldly. Both the North and South islands share many common features, but are also wonderfully contrasting.

    Landscapes

  • Light adventure

    It's not necessary to throw yourself off a suspended platform in order to fully experience New Zealand. Alternative options include air safaris over White Island, heli-hiking the Fox and Franz Josef glaciers and wilderness cruises in Milford and Doubful Sounds.

    Light adventure

  • Maori culture

    New Zealanders are proud of their Maori roots. Maori song, dance and mythology are prevalent, towns are adorned with carvings and rooms are dressed in flax weavings. Most physical locations also have Maori names with literal translations such as Waimakariri River (Cold water river).

  • Outdoors & coastal living

    The 'outdoors' perception of New Zealanders is not something consciously cultivated; with such a plentitude of mountains, beaches, fiords lakes and forests on their doorstep it is simply a way of life.

    Outdoors & coastal living

  • Self-drive

    New Zealand has wonderful roads - scenic, safe and, especially on the South Island, largely empty. They even drive on the left and some of the most scenic routes are waymarked. There are car hire stations at all of New Zealand's airports.

    Self-drive

  • Walking & trekking

    There are so many excellent hikes - or 'tramps' as the locals call them - in New Zealand that it is sometimes difficult to know which one to select. We feature several of the country's 'great walks' which can easily be incorportated into any itinerary.

The Farm at Cape Kidnappers

Hawkes Bay, Coromandel & Pacific Coast

Perched on a private 6,000 acre farm and surrounded by rolling pasturelands, the Lodge at Cape Kidnappers enjoys incredible views out across the mighty Hawkes Bay.

The lodge itself has been designed to resemble the buildings of a working farm, but at the same time has been expertly crafted to provide the best in luxury and comfort.

The main lounges, library and snug allow guests to hide away and relax, and excellent cuisine is enjoyed in the large dining room or conservatory area. Activities are plentiful at the lodge; on-site there is a gym, spa facility and beautiful outdoor pool area. The impressive wine cellar houses its own tasting rooms.

Rooms feature modern luxuries such as flat screen TVs, DVD players and IPod docking stations, but combined with more traditional touches such as fireplaces and traditional farm decor, giving the lodge real character. At the end of each day, retire to your beautifully appointed, spacious room, all of which enjoy panoramic views of the dramatic scenery from a private deck.

There are endless trails for walking or mountain biking throughout the property, or you can take a tour of the farm by 4WD or quad bike.

The lodge itself sits just above the world-class Cape Kidnappers golf course, ranked 41st in the world - playing here is an essential experience for any golf fan!
