New Zealand Regions
Any analysis of this country's regions will be either academic or subjective. This one is unashamedly subjective and open to constant improvement. Keeping abreast of everything wonderful and new which makes its appearance is impossible. It's a particularly enjoyable part of our job, but time and money - sadly - are not...

industry experience and contacts. We can tailormake any sort of wine
experience around this, focused on any aspect of the wine industry

Claremont Estate - North Canterbury
Claremont Estate is situated an hour's drive north of Christchurch in the South Island. It's a little-known area and an unpopulated area, which is just beginning to become popular and known as a wine region. The situation is lovely, rolling North Canterbury hills, an easy drive south to Christchurch and north to Kaikoura or...

Delamore Lodge - Waiheke Island, Auckland
Auckland is often the entry and departure point for visitors, and therefore somewhere where some time is spent. People often accept lower standards in Auckland, thinking that we have nothing as spectacular here as we do in other parts of the country. That's wrong!
Just a short scenic 10-minute helicopter ride from the...

Greenhill - Hawke's Bay
The Hawkes Bay is undergoing an understandable tourism boom. Previously, most itineraries went south to Rotorua and then flew to the South Island. The emergence of Hawkes Bay as a lovely destination has added an extra step to many itineraries.
The area is relaxed - very New Zealand, beautiful coastline, established and...

Hawkes Bay Day - Horses, wine and Maori
Start the day with scenic
drive through some spectacular Hawke’s bay countryside and on to the remote
and unspoilt, golden sandy beach that is Waimarama. Here lives our extraordinary Maori elder

Maori culture.

Valley. Their winemaker was Grant Taylor. Grant is acknowledged as one of the New Zealand "fathers" of pinot noir. Having spent 15 years in Napa Valley and Burgundy, Grant returned to Central Otago to pioneer the pinot noir grape at Gibbston...

Silver Pine - Lake Wanaka
Silver Pine is a special place. The view from this small lodge is the closest thing we have seen to the view from a helicopter, the place is owner-hosted by a delightful couple, the food is excellent and the location fantastic.
With only four rooms, Silver Pine is probably the smallest lodge we recommend. Built high up on a ledge...

The Convent - Marlborough
The Convent is not your usual sort of lodge. It has not been purpose built for the top-end, does not include fine dining, and has a really relaxed, almost self-effacing feel about it. It started tourism life as an upmarket bed & breakfast but under the hands of its current owners, Denham and Layonie Seque, it is evolving into...

Top of the South Island
This is a unique area, comprising the beautiful Marlborough Sounds (fjords), the Blenheim vineyards, sunny and artistic Nelson and the Abel Tasman National Park. Still not overly commercialised (although Abel Tasman and the Queen Charlotte Track at the height of the season get very busy), it is worth spending a few days here to soak...

Wharekauhau - Martinborough
Wharekauhau is an unusual place. Right at the bottom of the North Island, right at the end of the road, a good hour further on from the last outpost of civilisation - the lovely Pinot Noir capital of New Zealand, Martinborough.
It is a sad fact of New Zealand tourism that there are certain 'tourist highways' - these are the...

Elegant Chauffeuring!
What a treat to hear from you. Mark and I took forever to become accustomed to not depending on you to organize our days. We finally recovered from our jet lag, but we both still feel so attached to you and to NZ and so relatively unattached to the subsequent people and places we travelled. I think that you are setting an...
