Wharekauhau Country Estate

Elegant wilderness escape.
Set in the spectacular foothills of the Remutaka Mountain Range, Wharekauhau Country Estate exudes modern elegance with light, bright interiors drawing inspiration from the splendor of Palliser Bay.
Insider Tip

Step out onto your private patio and watch the glowing sunrise over the Southern tip of the north island—a moment not to be missed.

Where You’re Staying

Suites and villas feature heated floors, cozy fireplaces, and large wardrobes. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the exquisite landscape and draw in soothing natural light. Spacious marble bathrooms include a soaking tub and a large walk-in shower.

Where to Dine

Start the day at the country kitchen with two terraces available for alfresco dining. The estate’s main lodge serves exquisite farm-fresh and innovative fare. Enquire about a private lounge for a romantic fireside dinner.

Where to Relax

Indulge in wellness at Hauora Spa, offering treatments centered around the surrounding land’s unique elements. Select from specialized massages, facials, hair treatments, and more. Unwind in the indoor heated pool or outdoor hot tub.

What To Do

Sample a glass of wine from the Wharekauhau wine cellar while learning about the art of winemaking at the Sommeliers Table Wine Tasting. Connect with the landscape of Wharekauhau with an ATV quad bike tour of the estate. Spend the day exploring the close Martinborough vineyards or bike along the Palliser Bay coastline.
