Kiwiesque

Located in rural Eskdale, around 18km north of Napier, superstylish Kiwiesque overlooks apple trees and expansive vineyards. For freewheeling travellers, the best options are the four suites in the property's modern woolshed-influenced lodge (there's also a luxe private villa, sleeping 10). Breakfast is packed with seasonal produce; bathrooms are oh-so elegant. Eco-aware design includes double glazing and sheep-wool insulation.
