Ōtāne, Hawkes Bay
Tucked just off State Highway 2 in Central Hawke’s Bay, Ōtāne offers the kind of small-town charm that’s increasingly hard to find. This close-knit village comes with its own school, general store, café and pub, plus the beloved monthly Artisan Market that draws visitors from across the region to browse handmade crafts on the village green. Grab a coffee and a pie at Henry’s Family Pies, housed in the old art deco library building, or explore the Limestone Loop wine and culture trail that links Ōtāne with neighbouring Waipawa and Tikokino. With the Ruahine Ranges to the west and Hawke’s Bay’s famous beaches within easy reach, Ōtāne puts you at the heart of it all — rural peace and community spirit, without sacrificing easy access to everything the district has to offer.
