Here are a few of our favourite moments from the month ✨

We absolutely love reading such kind reviews. Here is a lovely one from our return guests!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Lakestone Lodge is in a glorious setting overlooking Lake Pukaki and the view from our room was stunning. This is our second trip to New Zealand and have made sure that we stayed at the lodge both times. The staff are delightful (helpful, charming and not at all stuffy) and the food and quality of service is exceptional. It genuinely is a very special place and we would recommend it to anyone."

Thanks so much John and Julie 😊
