Follow an avenue of lime trees to a boutique lodge

With hot, dry summers that fade into a winter wonderland, Wanaka is a buzzing adventure paradise all year round. Located in the spectacular Southern Alps, take your pick of some of New Zealand’s best ski fields. Once the blanket of snow has melted, the mountains turn into a hiking and mountain biking mecca.

Following an avenue of lime trees, you will discover a boutique lodge. Set on a ten-acre estate, it's a place to slip into the relaxed Kiwi lifestyle. Soak up the fresh alpine air, wander through the garden, play pétanque or swim in the pool. With four guest rooms and two suites, the hospitality is very personable, and the 360-degree mountain views aren’t too bad either.

Approximately one hour from Wanaka is the astounding Mount Aspiring National Park. A place with lush beech forests, hundreds of iced-glaciers, alpine meadows, towering mountains, rivers and a diverse range of native New Zealand flora and fauna. Home to endangered species, a large assortment of birdlife and other unique wildlife.
