"A northernmost New Zealand indulgence." Set on the dramatic Karikari Peninsula in New Zealand’s Northland region, Carrington Resort is the custodian of both a precious eco-system and a sublime landscape — a fitting setting indeed for a perfectly indulgent escape. Carrington is an all-encompassing experience. Naturally, fine dining takes centre stage, drawing on the Estate’s abundant produce, including Angus beef, herbs and vegetables. Fresh local seafood and wine from the renowned Karikari Estate are also daily highlights. The resort offers over four kilometres of secluded beach, not to mention a tournament quality 18-hole course that is sure to inspire even the most stubborn handicap. Guests can also choose massage, country walks, the thrill of fishing or scuba diving, the challenge of skeet or trap shooting, or peaceful pursuits such as petanque – the idea is to be as active or relaxed as you wish. Carrington Resort’s accommodation ranges from Lodge Rooms for one or two guests to two-storey Villas for families or small groups. Each luxurious Lodge Room opens to a wide verandah with panoramic views of vineyards, ocean vistas and towering mountains. The Villas offer three bedrooms and are suitable for up to five people, with a fireplace and fully equipped kitchen, plus views of the golf course and sweeping Karikari Beach. In all, Carrington Resort promises soul-renewing indulgence against the backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty. "The finest local produce." Carrington's menus, created daily by Michelin Star trained chef Mark Oliver, highlight seasonal flavours and produce and focus primarily on food grown on the surrounding Carrington Farms Estate, including Black Angus beef, native eel, honey, vegetables and fresh herbs. Fine local produce is also important – such as scallops from the beds of Karikari Beach, oysters from Rangaunu Harbour, fresh fish from Manganoui, mussels from Houhora Harbor, cheese from Mahoe and Pukepoto, and fresh Hokianga saffron. The menu might include delicious offerings such as pumpkin, miso and blue cheese soup; salt and pepper Carrington Black Angus eye fillet, accompanied by agria mashed potato, roast beetroot, field mushrooms, creamy spinach and Karikari Syrah jus; olive & rosemary lamb rack; honey soy seared tuna; and, for dessert, Bosc pear tart or strawberry and rhubarb crumble with home-made ice-cream and cinnamon Anglaise. Meals are accompanied by the fine wines of Karikari Estate, one of the Northland’s most acclaimed wineries. The Dining Room is open to house guests for breakfast, lunch and dinner daily and gourmet hampers, complete with a bottle of Karikari Estate wine, are available for secluded private picnics. Home grown foods and wines Its menus, created daily, focus firstly on food grown on Carrington Farms (Black Angus beef, native eel, honey, vegetables and fresh herbs) and then showcase the abundance of fine produce available in the local district.
