Description:
The refined countryside escape is an embrace by rural New Zealand. One of enriching sensory connection to an extraordinary place of wild beauty.
Set atop endless acres of a windswept peninsula, Rosewood Cape Kidnappers embodies the quiet majesty of New Zealand’s farmlands. Sheep and cattle graze open pastures. Native birds call from the diverse ecosystems of Cape Sanctuary. Trails wind through rolling hills, ancient gullies and out to the climactic cliffs that meet the Pacific.
This is Hawke’s Bay—'New Zealand’s fruit bowl' and a Great Wine Capital of the World—where epicurean encounters are defined by regionality. Strawberries from Havelock North. Beef from Matangi. Herbs, fruits and vegetables hand-picked by chefs from the kitchen garden form the foundations of meticulously crafted cuisine.
