I found Sublime wine on the Internet when I was searching for something special to book for my boyfriend and I. It looks fantastic, just up our street! Owned by a couple called Fenella and Steve. An overnight stay, breakfast and a three-course dinner each including wine is only $250 around £125 it is amazing! Everything they serve is from... More

My Girlfriend booked a room here as a surprise on our tour of New Zealand and from the minute we arrived Steve and Finella made us feel at home. They have a beautiful house and the room was really quirky with a beautiful view of the vineyard. We dined in a beautiful dinning room with a large open fire looking... More

Following a snippet in Lonely Planet, we booked to stay the night AND for the Taste of Waitaki dinner. The property and winery has a relaxed, chilled vibe. Steve and Fenella welcomed us like old friends, and Fenella's dinner was just brilliant! (we ate at some top NZ restaurants during our visit, and her meal topped the lot). 3 fabulous... More

such a beautiful location and relaxed athmosphere (although we had our 2 year-old with us), we felt at home like nowhere else on our trip! Steve and Fenella belong to the best hosts we met on our first and second stay in New Zealand. And the food is an extra recommendation to everyone! The rooms are decorated with a lot... More

We stayed at Sublime Lodge in winter 2011. It is one of our favourite stay in New Zealand! The place is beautiful. Surrounded by mountains and vineyards the renovated house is comfortable and welcoming, with a funky touch. Our room had a gorgeous view. We really appreciated the open fireplace in the dining room. The owners, Steve and Fenella (and... More

We stayed at Sublime at the start of November 2011 - having seen a small piece in the Lonely Planet on Steve and Fenella's place - they booked us in at short notice via email. The place is wonderful - a beautiful landscape and well designed vineyard/homestead with great guest facilities. The food divine, the wine delicious and Fenella knows... More

It has taken me quite a while to get around to doing this review since we stayed with the lovely Fenella, Steve and their gorgeous girls for 2 days in June 2011 but the memories remain strong such was the impact of the hospitality and style of this fabulous bed and breakfast. We toured the north and south of New... More

Set in the most scenic environment, the Sublime Lodge is the perfect location to unwind and relax for a couple of days. We strongly recommend it as a romantic retreat, especially if you are keen for European style that is made local ingredients as the (optional) dinner is simply fantastic. Steve and Fenella are very welcoming and hospitable hosts and... More

We treated ourselves to a night of great food and boutique hospitality during our RTW trip and it was one of the highlights so far. Steve and Fenella and family are great hosts - welcoming us with GENEROUS helpings of taster wine on arrival and good fun to chat with, but also gave us a lot of space to relax... More
