Located at Craggy Range’s Giants Winery in Havelock North New Zealand, the Vineyard Cottages offer self-contained boutique accommodation as well as a a luxury food and wine experience.
“EVERYTHING.
So we had a somewhat indulgent stay at Craggy Range - a superb lunch on arrival from the same dinner menu, so we could effectively do a massive menu tasting day, and with such beautiful delicious food, we loved that, and the wine woooooh the WINE. Craggy range Chardonnay is the most delicious wine in the world. Then of course the compulsory Wine tasting, and a turn around the vineyard and herb gardens and trees before settling into the honeymoon cottage, Chardonnay. WOW, you walk in the door and you just melt like having a back massage, it's incredibly peaceful, clean, beautifully decorated - just incredible. The bathroom is HUGE - loved it.
Then, oh, the stress, we had to walk back to the restaurant for another amazing meal for dinner. Absolutely delicious!!! And then back to our lovely cottage where we put on the log fire "just because". Incredibly romantic and divine.
A walk along Ocean beach down the road up to cape kidnappers is a MUST (don't bother with the rubbish touristy cape kidnappers things - after staying at craggy range, you'll feel sad to be back in the normal world - however, Ocean beach is just as idyllic at craggy range (no tourists), so that's a better cape kidnappers thing to do in my view).
By far our most enjoyable and relaxing and peaceful place we stayed on our nz tour.”
