Where to stay

Golf schmolf! I wanted to go to Cape Kidnappers Lodge in Hawkes Bay for the sheer luxury,sublime food and wine

Just 3.5 hours north of Auckland lies sleepy Russell and the iconic Duke of Marlborough hotel

Head north for a luxury staycation and throw in a 5-star cooking class in this 100-year old homestead!

If you’re on a red eye flight that checks in at Stupid-o’clock, then why not stay the night?

The Chateau Tongariro for a weekend escape, fabulous dinner and brekky at the foot of Mt Ruapehu

This gorgeous property clings to the cliffs near Paihia overlooking the beautiful Bay of Islands.
