Nestled within 1. 5 acres of manicured gardens, the 1889 lodge features antique furnishings complemented by modern amenities for today's discerning traveler. As the South Island's largest single-story timber dwelling, Pen-y-bryn boasts handcrafted floor-to-ceiling fireplaces, ornately carved bookcases, and unique leaded-glass doors and windows. Guests gather in the evenings by the warmth of blazing log fires to enjoy first-class table d'hôte cuisine, prepared with fresh, predominantly organic, local produce. Paired with a cellar of fine New Zealand wines, the dining experience is truly memorable.
