Craig, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful stay for our 25th wedding anniversary. The highlight for us was a swim in the beautiful pool and the spa and sauna as the sun was setting. The breakfast was superb. A very special experience and highly recommended.
Katie, 1-night trip

VERY remote but well worth the drive up the gravel road. The property itself is wonderful.
Rasesh, 1-night trip

Lovely location near Auckland. The staff were amazing and friendly. We will definitely return.
Raphael, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A little remote down an unpaved road, but certainly well worth it once you arrive. Very peaceful and beautiful place. Great restaurant. Only small suggestion is to add USB charging for foreigner traveler’s convenience.
Jill, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stunning accommodation and location.

My husband and I treated ourselves to a night at Woodhouse the night before departing New Zealand. It is only an hour and a half from Auckland airport despite being quite out of the way in amongst hilly sheep farms. Everything was wonderful...views, decor, food. The main lodge and the cabins have been beautifully decorated. Cabins are large with ample living area including a fireplace and a large bathroom with double shower and spa tub. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Customer service was excellent. My only complaint...our spa bath and gas fireplace did not work.

Panoramic Perfection. Intriguing Infrastructure. Helpful Hosts. Pleasant Peacocks and Pukekos. Rambling Rabbits. Great Gardens. Lovely Lodges. My heartfelt thanks to the wonderful staff and all concerned for making our 38th wedding anniversary weekend a resounding success. PTL

Such a beautiful place to unwind and relax with great service and lovely views while dinning.
Liana, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Shouted the hubby one night away without the kids. Only an hour away from where we live. Amazing view, so nice & peaceful. Only downfall was the driveway to the place was narrow & we could not see upcoming vehicles approaching around the windy roads. The meals were overpriced a three course dinner (small portions) was $118 & breakfast was a-lot more. Otherwise overall a nice short getaway.

Moeahu, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent. Make the detour here!

We chose this to break the journey to Russell but, could not have been more pleased. 5km down a single track dirt road, slowly climbing up a dirt road. An amazing journey to get there and well worth it. DEFINITELY book dinner. Delicious food and a real destination hotel. We will definitely come back and would recommend.

10/10 Exceptional

Probably the nicest place for the money I’ve EVER stayed. Quiet, beautiful setting with spacious, luxurious accommodations. Lodge is situated on top of a hill with panoramic views. “Villas” are widely spaced with big windows and verandahs to take in scenery. Generous tiled en-suite with two-headed shower, spa bath. Luxury is the word that comes to mind.
Thomas, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Very luxurious and will book again. My only comment would be the road to the property was quite scary and dangerous. We drive a 4WD Ute and I’m so glad we do because we arrived in the evening and it was raining quite heavily. The roads became muddy and slippery and there is no lighting on the road. Other than that amazing stay!

10/10 Exceptional

This property is lovely. Rooms atre decorated well and clean. Lovely flowers and double showers. Stylish furnishings and lovely touches like baked biscuits on arrival, an espresso maker and umbrellas. Beds comfortable and linen great. Disappointing the spa baths did not work. The restaurant and main lodge area is beautifully decorated. The staff are friendly and the food lovely. Special thank you to the head chef who specially made a cheese soufflé for me. The dining room is lovely and the breakfasts superb. Overall I would highly recommend this property.
