The Hunting Lodge is a winery, restaurant and events venue at 307 Waikoukou Valley Road, Waimauku, in West Auckland's wine country — roughly 30 minutes from Auckland's CBD, about 40 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from Muriwai Beach. The site is one of the most historic in the area, with a heritage reported to date to the 1860s and a homestead described as among the first houses built in Waimauku; it was once a hunting lodge associated with the Kerr-Taylor family.
Today the property operates as a working winery with a restaurant and a lawn bar. Its food philosophy follows the seasons, with an evolving wine-and-food experience and an emphasis on producing on-site and sourcing local produce. The grounds provide a picturesque, greenery-framed setting, and the historical homestead is available for private hire alongside various ceremony and event locations.
For MICE and incentive organisers, The Hunting Lodge offers a heritage winery setting for corporate functions, celebratory dinners, private hire and incentive outings within easy reach of Auckland. Its combination of history, working vineyard and flexible event spaces makes it a strong option among the region's Auckland venues.
