Summary: The first view of Kōtare Estate, framed by the Cypress pillars, fills you with joy and anticipation. Throughout our stay our joy grew and our expectations were exceeded. The home is gracious and authentic in the best of ways. It has been so lovingly cared for, its history and experiences, so honestly honoured. The home draws you in; the views draw you outward. We spent as many hours as possible enjoying the property and relaxing. Our hosts, Pip and Mathias, were so gracious and accommodating. We valued their willingness to share the home’s secrets with us and their commitment to ensuring we had the privacy and the amenities needed for a relaxing break. High on our priority list are also a great night’s sleep and a good shower – tick and tick! There is a wonderfully romantic sense to Kōtare Estate, a sense of bygone days, of celebrations, laughter, endless summers and soirées. It was wonderful to spend a few days here, to relax, to enjoy the stunning views and surroundings, and celebrate. Thank you Pip and Mathias for a most memorable of stays. We look forward to our next visit.

Summary: The house and location were amazing! 1920s mansion, situated in a private rural setting overlooking the region. The hosts were really accomodating with extra beds etc, and so easy to deal with! This place is huge, it is historic and beautiful with exceptional views. We felt, it was the best place in the region and everything you need is there, even a dress up closet! Thanks again Pip, we will see you again one day!

Summary: When we arrived at the property we were pleasantly surprised by the size of the house and the land that it was set on, after a quick tour of the house by the owner we were left to enjoy everything that it had to offer. The gardens and pool area were really nice to enjoy and the owners left us a few games to enjoy. Our favourite was Pétanque in the afternoon in the bbq area! The house and room layout was great, however it would of been nice to have another bathroom for such a big house, however we made it work. The kitchen and courtyard area were perfect with every cupboard stacked with whiteware and appliances to use! We would highly recommend this house to families and large groups. All the best for the future.

Summary: This large elegant home made our stay in Hawkes Bay all the more special. With 4 or 5 indoor living areas and a huge garden, our large family could always find a quiet place to read, or something to do. Thanks Mathias and Pip for catering to our needs. Foster
