In Maori, Wharekauhau means “place of knowledge”, as it was here where the wise men would come to learn their craft. The name has remained as a testament to the past. Nearly two centuries later, a large sheep station took its place here and finds itself still in activity today. In this farm setting, overlooking the Palliser Bay, the lodge cultivates a refined art de Vivre, with a welcoming decor that mixes antiques with natural materials. It is surrounded by vast native gardens where the croquet lawn, flowers, orchard and vegetable garden stand alongside one another, with the latter two supplying the restaurant where a delicious revisited “Kiwi” cuisine is served.

In true Wharekauhau style, natural materials are used throughout the cottage suites. Clay tiles, pebble mosaics, luxurious New Zealand wool carpeting, soft cotton linens and hemp curtains lend to the authentic atmosphere and genuine experience.
