The Farm At Cape Kidnappers

“FARM LUXE” AT ITS BEST

Surrounded by rolling pasturelands and rugged cliffs that give way to vast sea views, a stay at Relais & Chateaux Cape Kidnappers is “farm luxe” at its best

Cape Kidnappers nestles on a 6,000 acre working sheep and cattle station with panoramic views of sunny Hawke’s Bay. A combination of stone and weathered wood, the cluster of lodge buildings is suggestive of a working farm whilst providing the best in luxury and comfort. All 22 guest cottages – including the palatial, show-stealing Owner’s Cottage – exude warmth, character and charm, with modern furnishings and spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. The main lodge houses the lounge, library and snug which not only provides a variety of dining locations but plenty of space for guests to hide away and relax. A beautiful outdoor pool area, a soothing spa and a glamorous Tom Doak-designed golf course make up the rest of this unique property.

From hiking across the farmland to picnics at Black Reef, horseback riding and clay pigeon shooting, this is a place where you can really make the most of what New Zealand’s great outdoors has to offer. Guests can even observe some of the country’s most precious native flora and fauna in the farm’s own conservation sanctuary.

“YES TO ULTIMATE – AND YES AGAIN”

This was our second big trip with 91�� – and we’d happily use them again and again. The customer service is excellent: they really listen to what you want and make it happen. Their on-the-ground support, wherever you’re headed, is just as strong. Everything was seamless. Highly recommend.

“PROFESSIONAL, PERSONAL – AND A REAL PLEASURE”

From the moment we got in touch, everything felt smooth and well looked after. The team were not only professional and thorough – providing tailored suggestions with clear costings – but also genuinely friendly. Even after we returned, a follow-up email (and a bottle of wine!) showed just how thoughtful Ultimate Travel really is. Nothing was too much trouble. We already have more trips booked and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”

We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91�� – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.
