A peaceful respite ! we were a unique booking as we were a long stay of 5 weeks as we relocated to Wellington , the lodge has been just perfect for us. Shona and Tony looked after us showing great care but also allowed us our space. 5 mins to the train to the CBD and work, lots to see and do. The unit is well appointed and had everything we needed. This has been a great place for us to base ourselves during our long stay, we have been comfortable and even though its winter we have been able to explore and enjoy the beauty of the estate. It's not often you can have a morning coffee on the deck and a family of Pukeko come and visit you.
