The Hunting Lodge Restaurant - Our philosophy is inspired by the seasons where the wine and food experience evolves throughout the year. With ambitions for a genuine pasture-to-plate approach, producing what we can onsite and sourcing local produce to round out our offering, we look to add extra bursts of flavour and colour to our plates by using the best ingredients when nature intends. The new owners had a vision for the homestead to return to its culinary past once more, working with award winning Executive Chef Des Harris to create a fresh dining experience that intends to be best enjoyed with good company.

Cellar Door & Lawn Bar - Make the most of some downtime with friends and family on the lawn, while the little ones play in our new kid’s zone, enjoying Twister, Jenga and more games. There’s plenty to keep them entertained for hours (great for those who want to play at being ‘big kids’ too).

Sweet vineyard out west for a lazy afternoon. Really nice Sauvignon Blanc.

Nice spot out west for a day of drinking in the sun.

If you like Sauvignon Blanc then this is the place to go for a relaxing afternoon of wine - tasting.

This is a favourite stop off in summer or winter. Great little villa style cellar door, you can get some great wines not available anywhere else. Also can get a platter and chill in the grounds with a wine

The more lo-fi version of the Classic Hits tour, this February 9 show at Matua Wines in Waimauku (just outside of Auckland) will be a giddily happy affair. I can't think of a better way to hear the Phoenix Foundation, Lawrence Arabia and Five Mile Town live. There's even a bus heading out from the city, so you can really enjoy yourself.
