Founded by Kim Thorp and Andy Coltart 20 years ago, Black Barn is a boutique vineyard in the heart of the Hawkes Bay. Today, Black Barn boasts 25 acres of vineyard growing premium Bordeaux-style varieties at the foothills of Te Mata peak, plus a portfolio of 16 luxury accommodation retreats.
Euchre Lodge is the latest residence to join the fold. Inspired by the local vernacular, the lodge is ‘modern-country’ style with its board and batten exterior and pitched roof resembling a traditional farmhouse. The feel of understated luxury flows through the indoors and out, with high-end New Zealand design being evident in the careful selection process of furnishings, fabrics, and furniture.
Devon Kopi Cocoon Chairs, Milford Lounge 2 Seater and Single Chairs sit out on the deck, for a space to relax under the Hawke’s Bay sun with a glass of Black Barn’s best.
Spend a weekend here in wine country, dine at Black Barn's Bistro, savour local produce at their Growers Markets and enjoy an open-air concert at the outdoor amphitheatre, before coming ‘home’ to relax on Devon…

About the
Professional
Since 1976, DEVON has been designing outdoor furniture that reflects Aotearoa’s beauty and endures her elements.
It all began in the Auckland summer of ’76, when two Kiwi’s — Bruce Barnes and Howard Sneddon — started fashioning furniture in their old tin shed. But it wasn’t just any furniture, it had to be “the best outdoor furniture money could buy”.
After 47 trips around the sun, DEVON furniture lives on, surviving anything Mother Nature throws at it. Because the one thing that remains the same is our passion for the outdoors, timeless design, and quality construction.
Be inspired to embrace an outdoor life, in style with DEVON.
