Blackburn Ridge

A private, all-inclusive rural escape on a working farm in Hawke’s Bay — a mix of slowing down and getting out and about, at your own pace.

Start with a farm walk through varied hill country, redwoods and native bush, with wide views across Central Hawke’s Bay to the Ruahine Ranges.

On the following days, switch to e-bikes and ride quiet back roads, passing farmland, historic spots and small local villages. Each day finishes back at the homestead — hot tub ready, meals sorted, and nothing else to think about.

What's included

  • Meals for your entire stay. Main meals are created by local chef Kate de Latour, featuring beautifully prepared, restaurant-quality dishes ready to heat and enjoy at the homestead.
  • Boutique accommodation (linen, towels, pillows provided)
  • One main farm walk with a couple of shorter options
  • E-bikes and safety equipment included
  • Wood-fired hot tub (spring water)
