Our two night stay with John and Christine was like being in a storybook. Everything was grand! We loved exploring the grounds as well as the star filled southern hemisphere sky after a wonderful dinner. We did finally find the Southern Cross. Words cannot express this experience. We love gourmet food and each meal was a presentation of a master... More

We spent two nights at the Lodge in January, 2013 and it quickly became the favorite place we have ever been. The minute we walked in we immediately felt at home, because as wonderful as the Lodge itself is, the owners are even more wonderful. Christine and John made us feel like family. The facility itself is wonderful - we... More

A wonderful combination of new (and ultra-luxurious) blended seamlessly with historic, grand, charming and very stately. Perfect weather always caps a wonderful stay and cooling off in the beautiful pool,or taking a private bath outdoors under the stars is an experience never to be forgotten !

Had two nights at Lodge, the service was excellent and the food superb. The lodge is old world in a very quiet location. Perfect for a few days out of the world cup nights. Hosts could not have done more.
