Only a stone’s throw away from the bustle of Wellington, it promises the best in rural tranquillity and relaxation. Though agriculture has been the mainstay of the area for over a century, Wairarapa has embraced new industries such as wine growing, turning a once-sleepy region into an exciting getaway.

Copthorne Solway Park, Wairarapa is situated on the outskirts of Masterton. Only an hour’s drive or train ride from Wellington and just 5 minutes from Solway Railway Station, the resort is a true escape that is easily accessible. With 102 luxary guest rooms and all the best ammenaties, you’re in for a phenonmal retreat.

Taste some of the country’s premium wines at Borthwick Estate, sample the local beer at an iconic Tui Brewery, and see vintage aircraft and native wildlife up close or sample fresh local produce while exploring the many cafes and vineyard restaurants. Discover Masterton’s rich sheep shearing history, visit The Wool Shed, the National Museum of Sheep and Shearing, head to Aratoi, Wairarapa’s Museum of Art and History, see native birds at Pukaha Mt Bruce National Wildlife Centre, enjoy the beautiful gardens at Queen Elizabeth Park or head north for a Tui Brewery tour at Mangatainoka.

East of Masterton lies Castlepoint, a surf beach with protected swimming and a choice of walking tracks. Combine the Tararua, Rimutaka and Haurangi Forest Parks with the wild stretch of Palliser Bay and Pacific Ocean coast and you have endless possibilities for outdoor adventures and getting away from it all.
