Wendy
We enjoy sharing our piece of paradise with guests. Dewdrop Cottage is a peaceful retreat on our apple orchard/lifestyle property. Just 500m off the main route between Napier and Hastings , down a quiet no exit street, it is well situated to enjoy the best of Hawkes Bay's attractions and lifestyle. We live on the property and guests are welcome to cool off in our pool. Both houses are fully independent to enjoy privacy, but help/advice is on hand. Guests are welcome to meet the horses, and stroll through the orchard to Pakowhai Park in the evening. Children can have a ride on Alfie our super safe horse, and a quad bike is also available for trailer rides. Roxy is our very gentle and obedient dog that children and adults adore. A trampoline and bikes are available for guest use.
John and I moved to NZ in 1993 and have loved living in Hawkes Bay ever since. We grew up in South Africa and have enjoyed our travels to Europe, Canada, Australia, USA, Thailand, and the Pacific Islands but our favourite place in the world is Hawkes Bay.
Dewdrop Cottage is situated on an apple orchard in the heart of Hawkes Bay Wine Country. A perfect base for business travelers or holiday makers. Explore the wineries, cycle-ways, Sportspark, Splash Planet water park (seasonal), Te Mata Peak (incredible views, walks, paragliding). Guests can take a 2 km walk or cycle through the orchard to the river at Pakowhai Country Park for a picnic, and from there one can walk, run or cycle along the river bank to Napier or the wineries.It is a very safe neighbourhood where local children ride their ponies bareback through the orchards yet there are top restaurants almost within walking distance. (Serendipity Cafe and Three Wise Birds Cidery- Restaurant). Hastings is just 5 minutes away and Napier is 15 minutes away. The Sportspark and the showgrounds are very close.
