The property is quite unique with fabulous views and beautiful gardens. The accommodations are a bit worn and the staff was very friendly. The breakfast buffet was OK however the selection was limited. Many times items ran out and one needed to ask for replenishment.

A great experience overall. Very atmospheric property with beautiful gardens (and bird life!) Only recommendation would be to change the double bed in room 27 which is a serious sagger. Otherwise, the room was tastefully decorated to fit the late Victorian vibe.

What an incredible experience, we're so happy we booked in to stay at Larnach. The grounds are beautiful and it really is a labour of love the way that the family who own the property have restored it over decades. It's definitely worth the experience, and what a beautiful location on the peninsula. We are so grateful to the staff who looked after us during the Dunedin floods - thank you!!

Lodge consisted of rooms in converted stable or separate lodge. Our room had incredible views. Room was charming and we opted for the dinner at the castle which was super fun and excellent. The host is incredible and she makes the dining experience a joy and interesting. She gave a quick tour and her entertaining stories about the castle were fun! You also get free entry into the lovely castle in the morning to explore more and the gardens were beautiful. Breakfast in the stable was excellent

Beautiful gardens and gorgeous castle. The details in the creation and restoration are a labor of love. Hot breakfast and entrance to the castle and gardens was all part of the price, making this stay worth every penny. We stayed in the stables. Accommodations were ample for three adults. Excellent Wi-Fi. We needed to get some work done and were able to complete it without any problems. All in all, would recommend 10/10.

We have absolutely adored the whole stay over, group dinner, breakfast in the stables and explore the castle and gardens experience. But what made the standout was the attention to detail. From the choice toiletries, little fun things in the room to the careful seating choices and meals with the chefs dinner, would like to meet the chef next time so we could compliment them! The patience of the staff and the effort to go the extra mile. Breakfast, I went to toast a piece of bread and was offered more fresh scrambled eggs as the ones I left at my table could have become a little cold ( I was ok). Will plot to come back. Well done team.

Amazing stay
Our room in the lodge was spacious and decorated beautifully. The view from our window over the Otago peninsula was spectacular and the sounds of the birds was beautiful. There was a delicious spread at breakfast in the stables. The dinner in the castle was delicious! We were all seated together at a long table and we were chatting to the other guests. Service was excellent and we got a wee guided tour afterwords.
