A Luxury award-winning boutique style hotel, Pen-y-bryn Lodge offers unrivaled visitor accommodation, fine dining and hospitality, thus earning the Lodge its growing international reputation.

As a 5-star honeymoon destination, relaxing retreat, romantic getaway, heritage inn, wedding location or for that extra special occasion, Pen-y-bryn Lodge provides guests the warmth and humour of famed South Island hospitality.

Guests gather in the evenings, warmed by blazing log fires to savour first-class table d'hôte cuisine. Attention to detail in the use of the freshest local organic produce teamed with New Zealand wines from a connoisseur wine cellar create an exceptional dining experience.

Choose from a wide variety of outdoor activities or simply indulge and relax at the Lodge, play billiards on the genuine slate table in the magnificently paneled billiard room, or curl up with a good book in the library.

Pen-y-bryn is located on the southern boundary of Historic Oamaru on the East Coast of the South Island, one hour north of Dunedin, half way (3 hours) between Christchurch and Queenstown, and just 2 hours drive from Mt Cook.

Your owner/hosts, James Glucksman and James Boussy, delight in giving their warmest hospitality on a personalised level.
