Craggy Range Luxury Vineyard Retreat

Utterly fantastic experience, from the self catered breakfast in the room (bacon, eggs, cheese, fresh sourdough every morning, Milk, cereal, etc all from local suppliers.) to the spotless rooms and the super attentive staff (who all made us feel like we were the only guests on the property) The villa was set among the grape vines and over looked the river, it had all modern conveniences, ducted heating and a gas fire for ambience. The outside fireplace with seating and dining area was great for a cooler evening and the huge selection of wine available in room. We attended our friends 50th birthday during our stay which was an intimate private function in the wine cellar, amazing atmosphere and again very attentive staff. Thanks for a memorable time Craggy :) you should all be proud of what you offer your guests

Great stay. Accommodation superb with some lovely touches. Pop up restaurant in the Cellar Door still delivered as Craggy does.

Amazing accommodations, food and wine experience! The facilities were beautiful, the service was amazing, and the food at the restaurant was incredible. We stayed in a 2 bedroom / bath cottage with another couple and it worked perfect! Cottages were stocked with breakfast items that were all top notch. I would highly recommend Craggy Range!

Craggy Range is a wonderful place to stay. We booked for a 65th birthday celebration and it was everything we could have imagined. From the luxurious villa, to the wine tasting, to the exquisite dinner at the chefs table, it was an awesome experience. All of the staff were courteous and pleasant, going out of their way to ensure our stay went smoothly. Thank you everyone!

The entire stay was perfect! It was a surprise event and the staff were fantastic at keeping it that way. The accommodation was lovely and the meals were perfecto! We did a wine experience and MacKenzie was a fabulous host - we were enlightened by her talk.

We stayed at the Chardonnay cottage, tucked away in the vines behind the cellar door and restaurant. A picturesque location with views of the 'Craggy Range' vista and perfect base for a Hawkes Bay stay. A short drive to Havelock North, Hastings and Te Awanga. We loved the elegance and luxury of the cottage. It was modern, cosy, spacious and incredibly comfortable, perfect for two. Huge bathroom and great wardrobe to tuck away your luggage. We loved the little fireplace that added ambience in the evening, and (French press) coffee, fresh sourdough loaf and marmalade, all locally made, were a treat. Highly recommend booking the Giants tasting experience for fine wine lovers, to experience Craggy Range prestige wines and library wines, to enhance the connection to place and enrich the whole experience. The restaurant is an absolute must for a visit to Hawkes Bay. The food, wine and service was outstanding and memorable. The 1-2 minute walk back to our cottage after dinner was the most amazing starry night sky. If you're staying over a weekend, don't miss the Hastings Farmers market, on a sunny day. We would absolutely stay again, thank you for having us, Craggy Range, until the next time.
