Birdwoods is a very special place in the heart of Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand and is much loved by locals and visitors alike.
Set in the countryside just 3km from Havelock North Village, it is a must-see for those young and old. Two historic buildings were relocated on the site in 2004; positioned amongst beautiful expansive gardens with established trees, Birdwoods Gallery has become one of Hawke’s Bay’s most distinctive and delightful visitor attractions.
Our unique gallery showcases New Zealand and African art and craft, collectables, furniture, textiles, jewellery, ceramics and more. Do take the time to stop in at the cafe and enjoy our renowned lunch, tea, coffee and yummy cakes – bookings are recommended. Enjoy your treats inside the refurbished church or out in the manicured sculpture garden which showcases African and New Zealand stone and metal artists. Before you leave, take a step back in time to the traditional sweet shop, which is just like you remember! At Birdwood’s Gallery and Cafe, Havelock North, there is something there for everyone to enjoy.
Birdwood’s Gallery, Cafe and Sweet Shop is a place that always makes you feel better and where everything has a story.
We look forward to welcoming you soon.
