Honestly, what an underrated little Gem. Food is fantastic. Service that really lets you know you’ve got your well and truly out of Auckland as staff are just so friendly and helpful. Comfy rooms. And just all and all are great experience. Course is a little bit tired however when you’re coming for the weekend and the experience it ties in fine. Would highly recommend.

“Overall a nice stay .. golf course needs some TLC”

Really good sized bedrooms and en suite, everything you need, including a fridge. Rooms are nice, albeit a little dated.

Really good sized bedrooms and en suite, everything you need, including a fridge. Rooms are nice, albeit a little dated. All staff we met were very friendly and professional ..... maybe a tad understaffed as usually only 2 servers on duty to cover restaurant and bar, but they coped very well when busy, trying their best to see to all the customers as quickly as possible and with a smile! Special mention to Vimeanrachna and Cameron , 2 lovely youngsters who were usually on shift when we used the bar/restaurant, great customer skills and very friendly. The food is fabulous, well done to Chef! Every meal was well cooked and beautifully presented. Restaurant is nice enough, but has potential to be fabulous. The Estate as a whole is lovely, but it's really out in the sticks. It is in need of some real investment from the owners, everywhere needs a good makeover and attention to detail, then it could be fantastic and a real 'destination' place, as the setting is beautiful. Being so far out of the way it needs to be special to make the journey here memorable for the right reasons. The golf course has such potential, so pretty, fabulous views and some interesting holes, I see work is happening and maybe soon it will improve a lot, but at present it needs a lot more care, the greens are the worst I've ever played on.
