Perched high above the Whanganui River, the Lodge is surrounded by native bush and has magnificent views. It is the only accommodation of its kind in the area.

Explore our property, enjoy bush and farm walks, visit with our animals. Take a canoe across to Tieke Marae and learn about the early Maori or just sit and listen to tales of life on the river and relax and soak up the view.
