Cape Estate Country House Boutique Farmstay Bed n Breakfast

Welcome to Cape Estate Country House Boutique Farmstay Bed n Breakfast, a truly unique wedding venue in Hawke's Bay, New Zealand. Situated on the picturesque Te Awanga Downs, our private garden offers breathtaking views of vineyards and the stunning Hawke's Bay coastline, stretching from Mahia Peninsula to Napier Hill and the iconic Black Reef at Cape Kidnappers.

Our venue is set within the expansive 2-hectare park-like grounds of the homestead, complete with two grass tennis courts and a swimming pool. Whether you envision a marquee wedding on our dedicated lawn, a rustic barn wedding breakfast, or a lively dance party or cocktail reception by the poolside, we are here to create an unforgettable experience tailored to your needs.

At Cape Estate, we understand that planning a wedding can be overwhelming, which is why we are more than happy to assist you in connecting with local event planners, suppliers, and caterers. Together, we can bring your vision to life and ensure that your special day is everything you've ever dreamed of.

Our bed and breakfast accommodation overlooks the homestead's grass tennis courts, providing a peaceful and tranquil retreat. It is the perfect base for exploring the gems of the Hawke's Bay region, including the challenging Cape Kidnappers International golf course, award-winning wineries, and charming cafes. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, Cape Estate offers it all.

In addition to weddings and accommodation, Cape Estate is proud to host the iconic Boxing Day Festival. Now in its seventh year, this festival is a highlight of the Hawke's Bay social calendar. Set in our beautiful open-air garden stage, the festival showcases the best of Hawke's Bay hospitality and entertainment. It is a family-friendly event, with free entry for children aged 12 and under, and a dedicated kids zone featuring a bouncy castle. Youths aged 13-17 are also welcome, accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. With limited capacity, this festival sells out every year, so be sure to register for pre-sale tickets to secure your spot.

Come and experience the beauty and charm of Cape Estate Country House Boutique Farmstay Bed n Breakfast. Whether you're celebrating your special day, exploring the Hawke's Bay region, or joining us for the Boxing Day Festival, we promise to make your time with us truly unforgettable.
