Lodges in Canterbury

"Beautiful place with adequate parking. Lovely hosts. Fantastic communication."

"Beautiful location with nice hike from the property and free mountain bike use to bike along Lake Pukaki. The highlight, however, was the exceptional food. "

"From the start to finish of our 3 nights stay, in one of the treehouses, the whole experience was exceptional in our travels around NZ over the last month. Friendly, kind interested and caring well beyond expectation. Rooms supremely comfortable, food varied each night and delicious. Breakfast and lunch offered with grace and pleasure also. Good place for quiet time but close to whale watching trips . Even its own helipad for trips to mountains and sea.! Don’t miss this gem."

"Our amazing stay in the Ashley Mackenzie villa was magical! The view of the glacier lake, the mountains, and Mount Cook were spectacular. Kaye and Luke were gracious hosts and Anna was a dream to work with. The villa was first class and very well appointed. We lacked for nothing! The chef prepared 5 star dinners that were delicious and delivered every evening. Highly recommend this property for a relaxing and pampered stay."

"Perfect house in the perfect location. I will try and book again sometime soon"

"The photos just don’t do this place justice! We stayed here with a large group over the new years period and the place was fantastic - good outdoor and indoor space, close to the beach, room for dogs and plenty of activities to do. Glen and Carla were awesome hosts and brought around local food daily for us to enjoy - generous and hospitable. We stayed for four days and wished for more time. A beautiful part of New Zealand!"

"Cool house, great vieuws, close to the city an mtb park. We had a great stay!!"

"This place was an absolute gem, as were the hosts. I felt like I'd come home. The property is stunning with mountain views and a duck pond. The room was lovely. The common area was cozy and a wonderful place to unwind. I only wish I stayed longer. "

"We enjoyed a delightful stay at the Ranginui B&B. The view from our deck was beautiful. We made good use of it every morning sipping our coffee and in the evening drinking our wine while taking in the scenery. Ann-Mari and Sam were lovely hosts filled with great walk/hike suggestions as well as dining. "

"Without doubt this is the most luxurious experience I've ever had. My husband and I had two wonderful nights at Rippinvale Retreat in Hanmer Springs. From our arrival when there was home made baking, to wine and canapés at 6pm to chocolates on our pillow at night, our hosts Helen and John, couldn't have made us feel more welcome. The totally delicious home made breakfast (served after 9am!) kept us going until dinner time. I thoroughly recommend Rippinvale Retreat to couples that want some...

"Clean and comfortable. Good value for money. Best part is the restaurant on site. Delicious meal with lovely atmosphere. No driving involved. Few glasses of wine by the fireplace and off to bed. Perfect!"

"Spotless, high quality amenities and complementary breakfast. Friendly and helpful hosts "

"Very comfortable stay with beautiful views."

"We spent 2 nights at Grasmere and loved every minute. The views were stunning, the property was very well kept, excellent service, the room was clean, a good size, and the bed was comfortable. A great place for peaceful, relaxing holiday. "

"Beautifully presented historic property, very comfortable "

"Very nice property and accommodation was as described, however as we were intending to stay for bed breakfast and an evening meal we were very disappointed to find the restaurant was closed with no reason given and had to go out and find somewhere"
