Bangor Country Estates

Another fabulous stay at Wharekauhau. So welcoming and relaxing, such fabulous meals and cosy, luxurious cottages. Thank you so much.

One of the hidden gems in the Wairarapa. Beautiful place. Should be in every one’s bucket list. Great service, breathtaking views

From the moment we arrived at Wharekauhau Country Estate, we were blown away. The service was hands-down the best we’ve ever experienced — every staff member was incredibly friendly, welcoming, caring, attentive, and went above and beyond to make us feel special. It genuinely felt like we were the only guests there, and everything ran seamlessly. The estate itself is stunning — luxurious, serene, and immaculately maintained. Our cottage was perfection (the pillows were the fluffiest I’ve ever felt!), and every little detail had been thoughtfully considered. We took part in some amazing activities during our stay — clay shooting was so much fun, the full-body massages were absolute bliss, and the ATV tour was an exhilarating way to explore the breathtaking landscape. Every experience exceeded our expectations. It honestly felt like we were living in a movie — completely unreal in the best possible way. This was more than just a getaway — it was an experience we’ll remember forever. Wharekauhau truly sets the standard for luxury and hospitality. We can’t wait to come back.

Faultless experience at Wharekauhau Country Estate, I hosted 21 corporate guests who had an exceptional time. From arrival to staff to food & bev, everything was delivered to the highest quality. We're looking forward to next time already. Ka Rawe Tours

The staff here are beyond fantastic, that is really what sets this place a cut above the rest. As soon as we walked in we were made to feel special by Irma - almost like family returning home. Richard the GM came to introduce himself and made us feel very welcome, we thoroughly appreciated his time. Nicolas in the dining was exceptional- with his knowledge and passion for wines so infectious - he really made our experience so memorable- rare to find people that give this level of service nowadays. All food and beverages were 10/10. Stunning location - stunning rooms and impeccable service. We hope to stay again.
