We had a wonderful two night stay, and highly recommend Greenhill for anyone looking to check out Hawkes Bay wine country and/or have a relaxing country stay. The property and lodge are beautiful, complete with fruit trees and alpacas throughout. Our breakfast both days was excellent and our lovely hosts treated us to canapes and drinks every afternoon. We had a home-cooked dinner one night as well which hit the spot. Great hidden gem away from it all!

We treated ourselves to two nights at the Greenhill Lodge and stayed in the King Suite. Our expectations were met on all levels; beautiful surroundings coupled with wonderful service from our hosts. On our first day, we were welcomed with tea, club sandwiches, and chocolate brownies and that set the tone for the remainder of our stay. Our suite was spacious, light, clean, and extremely comfortable. We loved our time there and were treated like royalty. I would highly recommend Greenhill Lodge.

What an incredible find! Don't let the lack of online booking dissuade you from staying here- it's an amazing place with truly wonderful hosts. Charlotte and Stephen were so welcoming to the four of us (2 couples), from chatting about their journey to Greenhill, to sharing local recommendations, to amazing homecooked meals (definitely take them up on daily breakfast, and you have to eat dinner in at least once!). We felt very at home, and there were no shortage of spots to relax and soak in the beauty of Hawke's Bay. All guest rooms open to the front porch or the back courtyard, they're spacious and well-appointed, with modern bathrooms and homey touches. The billiard room is especially fun, as was the pool area (complete with cedar 2-person hot tub). We loved meeting all the resident animals (alpacas, mini ponies, goats, dogs, cats), but guests with animal allergies should be aware that a few of the fur babies are indoor pets. I wish we could have stayed longer, Greenhill would be the perfect place to get away from it all for an extended visit to the countryside!

Simply superb! Right from the the time we drove up the winding, tree-lined driveway through park-like grounds to the grandiose late 19th century built stately manor, all the way through our 24 hour idyllic stay.. everything was just absolutely top notch! Highly recommend the friendly service of our convivial, entertaining hosts Steve & Charlotte Wilson. Food & wine as good as anything that we’ve enjoyed anywhere!
