Totally idyllic! We had a wonderful stay at the Olive House and only wish we could’ve stayed longer. The house is set in the most peaceful lovely surrounds in the olive groves. It feels like you’re a world away as it’s very quiet and private yet you are close to many attractions (beach, wineries, Te Mata peak etc) and nearby Havelock North (excellent eating options). The Olive House has everything you could need in terms of amenities, plenty of space to relax and was super warm and cosy even in the middle of winter. We enjoyed the fireplace although the underfloor heating warms the entire house beautifully and the sun in the evenings was glorious! Amy and Rebecca were great to deal with in planning our stay and also provided fantastic tips on what’s good in area. The Olive House is stunning in design and was sparkling clean. The perfect getaway if you’re looking for accommodation in Hawkes Bay. We can’t wait to come back!
