The birdsong lodge is natural luxury at its very best! My parents and I spent 2 beautiful nights and wished we could’ve stayed longer. The peaceful atmosphere feels like you’re away on a retreat. It even smells peaceful with all the naturally fragrant toiletries in the bathroom. It’s clear Tanya and her husband put a lot of love and creativity into its build. The deck offers a stunning place to discharge as you listen to birds singing & the river flowing and when the sun goes down enjoy the incredible fireplace that is not only cozy but a work of art. Little River has a beautiful outdoor cafe & gallery worth a visit and Akaroa is a stunning 30 min drive away. I would highly recommend staying at Birdsong Lodge! Thank you Tanya for all the personal touches...it made for a very Welcoming stay!
