The Bistro has a number of captivating features which we can offer to you for your dining.
As you enter our Foyer you will experiance our breath taking views of the ocean through our ceiling high windows and directly behind facing inland we have clear views of the stunning Mt Taranaki.
The restaurant offers a selection of framed views from Oakura to the Sugar Loaf Islands; then moving out onto the spacious deck enjoy outstanding panoramic views from Cape Egmont to New Plymouth.
Okurukuru We have extensive grounds for wandering before, during or after your dining experience, look around and you will see a totally different view unfold every 20 steps or so. However please do not walk through our vines as these are fragile and vital for your next bottle of wine!
We also cater for families and children with a large flat lawn to run around on and some play equipment for the younger members.
