Property Location
Nestled in a stunning location at the foothills of the imposing Remarkables mountain range, the Lodge is set in two acres of peaceful, landscaped gardens. Yet we're only ten minutes from New Zealand's premiere travel destination, Queenstown. This is a magical place at any time of year.

Approaching Queenstown by road from the north: on Highway 6, turn left at Frankton and continue on State Highway 6 to Invercargill / Milford Sound. The road passes the airport, crosses a one-way bridge and meanders 2.5 km around to the Remarkables Ski Resort entrance. Staying on State Highway 6, the Lodge is exactly 3.4 km from the Ski Resort Entrance, on the left-hand side hidden from view by large trees.

Arriving by plane: when you leave the airport you reach a T intersection. The road in front of you is State Highway 6. Turn left, cross the one way bridge and follow the directions above.
