The Hunting Lodge - boutique winery and hospitality provider. Our unique 80 acre estate is located just 35mins drive from the CBD in the heart of Auckland's wine country. In addition to producing our own wine, The Hunting Lodge boasts a Cellar Door, Cafe, Restaurant, roaming gardens that supply all our dishes and purpose-built event spaces. While the history of The Hunting Lodge dates to 1868, the current owners' story goes back to the 1970's. As good friends of the then owners, they frequently helped around the property and watched their children grown up amongst the vines. After purchasing the Estate in 2016, they have lovingly restored it and are proud to be able to share this beautiful destination with visitors and let the stories continue.
