Tucked between the Rimutaka Ranges and the wild shores of Palliser Bay, Wharekauhau Country Estate offers an elevated take on country life. Just a scenic drive or a short helicopter flight from Wellington, this award-winning Relais & Châteaux lodge invites guests into a world of relaxation. Each cottage suite offers sweeping views, cosy fireplaces, and warm interiors that reflect the estate’s working sheep station roots.
Days here are defined by choice: venture out on a guided ATV tour across rugged coastal trails, explore nearby Martinborough wine country, or indulge in a massage followed by a glass of local Pinot by the fire. Whether you’re seeking quiet reconnection or a romantic getaway, Wharekauhau delivers understated luxury in one of New Zealand’s most beautiful regions.
