About this property

Exclusive hilltop retreat in the heart of Hawke's Bay -walk to the wineries!

Escape to the heart of New Zealand's renowned Hawke's Bay wine region and discover the unparalleled splendour of Gimblett Lodge. Tucked away amidst rolling vineyards in its own private farm and garden, this exclusive retreat is an architectural grand design that provides a sanctuary of country comfort and style.

At Gimblett Lodge, every detail has been meticulously crafted to ensure an unforgettable experience. Your extraordinary escape awaits.

As you step inside, you'll be immersed in an ambiance of refined elegance.

The Lodge boasts soaring ceilings, inviting you to sink into sumptuous sofas and indulge in panoramic views through floor to ceiling windows. Through the front entrance there is a spacious lounge/living area (35m2) off the hallway. Enjoy stunning sunsets and sunrises from the exquisitely comfortable living area and decks. The feature conference table serves as an office or dining area. There are several sofas, including one with a pull-out bed option.

Retreat to the woodland bedroom and awake refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to embrace another day of adventure. The large main bedroom (25m2) faces the olive grove and has direct access to the west/north deck. There is a separate shower room and a separate toilet.

Whether you seek relaxation, adventure, or simply a moment of tranquility, let us elevate your stay to new heights of indulgence.

You will have exclusive access to the Lodge's rooms, decks and the olive grove garden.

Your hosts will let you know what parts of the farm and vineyards are open for you to explore.

The Lodge has the red front door. Park next to the ramp.

Laundry access is through the garage.

For the more active guests, explore the farm trails, join in a local wine tasting, or ride the off-road cycle trails. The airport and local towns are nearby.
It is a short walk to wineries (in the newest wine capital of the world!), e-bike rentals and the start of 200+ km of Hawke's Bay bike trails. Further afield- Napier/Hastings airport is less than 30 minutes away, and the towns of Hastings and Havelock North are a 15 minute country drive.

You have a choice of 3 golf courses within 20 minutes drive.

The Lodge is in a working vineyard and farm area with access through a shared winery driveway. Follow the 20kph speed limit.
