Welcome
Driftwood Cottages are the perfect choice for those looking for affordable boutique accommodation with that something extra when staying in Hawke’s Bay Wine Country.

Named for the driftwood that litters the nearby beach Driftwood Cottages are conveniently located just 10 minutes drive from the Hawke’s Bay Wine Country shopping centres of Napier, Hastings and Havelock North and five minutes from the award-winning Cape Kidnappers Golf Course.

A very short stroll takes guests to the nearby beach and adjacent wetlands, both of which boast magnificent views of Hawke Bay – from Mahia to Cape Kidnappers.

Guests are offered accommodation in one of two self-contained cottages each of which is individually appointed to cater for their every need.

Generous breakfast provisions are provided and consist of the best that Hawke’s Bay has to offer including local artisan bread, free-range eggs, Hawke’s Bay grown fresh seasonal fruit, locally cured bacon and freshly roasted coffee (special dietary requirements easily and happily catered for - just let us know when booking).

Driftwood Cottages are the perfect getaway for the discerning food and wine lover. Hawke’s Bay is home to some of New Zealand’s best wineries and most innovative food producers.

Spend the day exploring Hawke’s Bay Wine Country then retreat to your cottage for the evening where you can relax with a glass (or two) of wine, enjoy the fabulous produce and wine you have picked up along the way, or choose from one of the various dining options available, before slipping between the pure cotton sheets of your king size bed.
