The lodge was such an incredible place to stay! It was very beautiful and the staff was incredible. The free breakfast in the morning was to die for and the staff there was very accommodating and gave me an extra meal for the next day, since I had to leave early and wouldn’t have been able to make breakfast on the morning I was checking out. I also did the dinner in the castle and it was super cool! My room was a corner room, so I had a balcony that overlooked the garden, as well as the ocean, which was amazing, especially at sunrise. Overall, I highly recommend staying at the lodge, as it was well worth my time and money. Just be aware that it’s not near any stores, so be prepared for that, especially if you don’t have a rental car. And plan any Ubers in advance.

When staying in the stables be prepared for a lot of noise. Other than that this was a really good experience. Dinner in the castle was fun. The grounds and view are breathtaking.

Staying in the Lodge was special, with a four poster bed and spectacular views. Dinner in the Castle was wonderful. The food was excellent and it was enjoyable to mingle with the other dining guests. The breakfast was also very good. Overall our visit to the Castle exceeded our expectations and was good value for money.

We loved our stay at Larnach Lodge! Brendan and Jo are the epitome of hospitality. The view from our room was breath taking. The cooked to order breakfast was also a great start to the day. This is a must stay if you are wanting to stay on the Otago peninsula!
