Otahuna Lodge

Set in pastoral surroundings against the fluted cone of an ancient volcano, Otahuna Lodge is a beguiling Victorian mansion that offers its guests a unique sense of wonder and discovery. New Zealand's largest private historic residence has been revitalised with luxury accommodation, glorious gardens and sophisticated cuisine.

Each of Otahuna's seven suites is an enclave of refined comfort. Here, the classical ambience created by ornate fireplaces, carved inglenooks and flowers freshly picked from the Estate has been enhanced with luxurious fabrics and lavish bathrooms.

Situated at the base of the Banks Peninsula, the Lodge offers the ideal location to explore Canterbury's wineries, private gardens, championship golf courses and even the world's rarest dolphins in nearby Akaroa Harbour.
