Beautiful place to stay. Right from when we first arrived, Denise's instructions were easy to follow and Maria welcomed us, who was super friendly and helpful. Maria had a very extensive local knowledge, as well as the person to talk to, if you want to go horse riding.
The house has a fully equipped kitchen that allowed us to enjoy the house with meals in at night, along with being a perfect location for what we wanted to do, which was visit the wineries. 20mins to Bannock Burn where there are amazing wineries such as Felton Rd, Te Kano, Cloudy Bay and Domain Thomson. Also Nanny Goat just along the bottom of the hill. If you are wanting a break away where you can relax and admire the spectacular view, then Hawkes House is the place to be.
