Clifton Glamping offers a distinctive luxury camping experience on the historic Clifton Station in Hawke's Bay, a working sheep farm proudly owned by the same family for over 150 years. This secluded retreat is set amidst 800 hectares of private coastal farmland, providing a tranquil atmosphere with picturesque views of the Maraetotara River, native bushland, and rolling hills. The property masterfully blends the rustic allure of camping with resort-style indulgence, featuring safari tents imported from Holland that are beautifully decorated with a thoughtful mix of curated treasures and historic farm items. This unique blend creates a truly memorable five-star escape, allowing guests to immerse themselves in nature without compromising on comfort.

Each luxury safari tent provides elegantly designed living spaces, comprising an inviting entrance, a comfortable bedroom, and an expansive deck with a dedicated kitchen area. Within the bedroom, guests will find a sumptuous super-king-sized bed, lounging chairs, and a cosy wood fire for cooler evenings. The outdoor gourmet kitchen on the deck is well-equipped with a barbecue and a herb garden, perfect for al fresco dining. A truly exceptional feature is the luxurious outdoor shower and private outdoor bath, offering breathtaking, uninterrupted views of the farm, river, and the starry night sky. Locally sourced continental breakfast provisions, including freshly baked bread, are thoughtfully provided for guests to prepare at their leisure.

This exquisite glamping site is perfectly suited for couples and solo travellers seeking a peaceful, private, and luxurious break. It provides an ideal setting for romantic getaways, honeymoons, or simply unwinding away from the everyday hustle and bustle of city life. Visitors can explore nearby world-class wineries, the renowned Cape Kidnappers Golf Course, and the gannet colony. Alternatively, guests may enjoy a refreshing dip in the Maraetotara River or partake in walks and cycling along the scenic trails, making it perfect for those desiring a balance of adventure and serene relaxation.

I was lucky to stay at Clifton Glamping and it was wonderful. The location is peaceful and beautiful. The tent is spacious and comfortable. The bedding was so nice. It is decorated with love and passion with beautiful flowers everywhere. It was a perfect stay, a stunning location with a short walk to the river. A moment of peace, a lovely retreat perfect to escape, reset and unwind. Thank you so much

Huge thank you to Tom and Lucia for an incredible place to stay! Not only was the tent beautiful, the whole site was just divine. Even the small details like the fires already setup and ready for us to just light was appreciated. So easy to come and go, all the convenience amenities you could want, and special little touches made for a wonderful stay. Have already begun recommending this to our friends and planning our return trip!

our stay at Clifton Glamping was AMAZING! The tent was adorable and so luxurious. Everything was well thought of and we felt very relaxed and comfortable. The bath and shower outdoor was so nice and the campfire and breakfast provisions was a perfect touch. We couldn't have asked for a nicer experience in such a peaceful farm!

We had a night at Clifton glamping and wished we could stay for ever. It was so luxurious yet completely peaceful and private. The tent is stunning but the views are even more extraordinary! Lucia and Tom have thought of everything you could possibly need/want. I loved the outdoor bath big enough for two, perfect for star gazing and the fresh home laid eggs in the morning. Loved every minute of it.

We had three relaxing days in these amazing tents. It certainly didn’t let us down at all it was perfect. Beautifully positioned and immaculately presented inside the tents. Everything was thought of and more. Breakfast was great although we did take our own bacon. Kitchen was well stocked. Shower outside was amazing as was the bath tub. Lucia was very helpful and went out of her way to sort any issues we had. Highly recommend Clifton Glamping relaxing and peaceful experience. I’m sure we will be back.Wineries were wonderful as was the cafe Hygge just on the beach down from the campsite was excellent.Thanks Lucia for everything.
