Otahuna Lodge
At the exclusive country estate that is Otahuna Lodge, you'll feel as if you own the place. With just seven suites set in the ornate main lodge, there's ample room to spread out, and the attentive staff treats you as family. Enjoy the pleasures of your suite, from its deep bathtub and Penhaligon’s of London bath amenities to the ornate original fireplace. Venture onto the grounds for a guided garden tour; each season brings with it new blooms . . . daffodils in September, vibrant gold and red foliage in May. The lodge offers mountain bikes perfect for exploring local villages.
