We are a professional couple who enjoy a busy social life . After a few years of building and renovating homes in Wellington, we have recently purchased a small vineyard in the Hawkes Bay for a change of pace and scenery. We love meeting new people, Entertaining, and squeezing in a overseas holiday once a year. Our move to the Hawkes Bay was to build a dream home in the vineyard and establish a new business "Glamping in the Vines"

A unique glamping experience set amongst the vines in the stunning Hawke’s Bay. Searching for a unique destination to unwind, and relax. Our glamping tents are nestled within a boutique vineyard well located with Hastings, Napier, and Havelock North a short drive away. Cozy up during cooler evenings and days with electric blankets, heaters, and board games. Then, on clear nights, marvel at the stunning Hawke's Bay sky while lounging on the indoor deck with our own grape-produced red wine, blankets, and outdoor heating and firepit perfect for toasting marshmallows. At Villas & Vines Glamping, we are proud to offer accommodation, providing a great option for a romantic getaway for 2 or group bookings, ideal for family catch ups, bridal hen’s nights, girl’s weekends, The Mission concerts, and many other events the Hawkes Bay has to offer The Glamping tent has a large extended deck and has a configuration to accommodate up to 2-4 people. We are well located with Hastings, Napier, and Havelock North a short drive away. We have great vineyards/restaurants, beaches and coffee stops at our doorstep, and an easy cycle ride on the Hawkes bay cycle trails which is safety accessed via the rear of our vineyard.
