A little write up in the Rural Guardian talking about what we do and why we do it! Special thanks to Claire Inkson for the feature.

When Hannah Williamson and Dylan Amyes unlocked the doors to D.O.T.I in June last year, they did it on a leap of faith. Redundancy had pushed them out of their long-held roles at Waipara Hills, and although they both temporarily picked up jobs elsewhere, they were still searching for what came next....

We’re sneaking in a few extra days off this Christmas and New Year…. because even elves need a break (and maybe a cheeky nap). 🎄🥂

It’s November, and that means it’s North Course time!
Come and try our 2025 creation - Duck Breast with asparagus, cauliflower, bacon, orange, goat’s cheese and hazelnut praline.
Beautifully paired with a glass of House of Ball Rosé.
Seasonal, elegant, and just a little bit indulgent.
Taste and rate our dish to be in to win an epic getaway ⭐️⭐️⭐️
