This is a "luxurious hideaway". We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings in the beautiful garden & the room that resembles a top class motel unit. It's been kitted out with the best of everything for your comfort & enjoyment - no expenses spared! It's full of quality furnishings & is spotlessly clean and tidy. There is dedicated parking in the car port too! Cindi is the loveliest person you could meet and keeps in touch each day to check on your comfort & offers great advice on the local area. Puketapu is centrally located to all the Hawkes Bay wineries including Mission Estate, Church Road and lots of outdoor pursuits if you wish to do this. The local meals at the Pub/Hotel are superb and generous. Shops are not far away in Taradale, Meadowbanks and Hastings. The local people are very friendly. We will be definitely going back to"Quail Cottege". Great place for rest and/or recreation :)
