The Larnach Castle Lodge is just behind the main castle. The Lodge rooms have beautiful views over the Otaga Peninsula and coast. And Larnach Castle and its grounds are fantastic, and available free of charge for Lodge guests.

A beautiful location. The room was large and comfortable and the bathroom was also big and warm. We had a delicious meal in the dining room. My only complaint is that the staff member serving us wine had not idea about wine and could not guide us at all.

What an amazing place to stay. Larnarch Castle is beautiful all around. If you have a chance to stay there he night- you’ll mainly have the grounds to yourself when all the tourist have left. The dinner inside the castle and the breakfast inside the old horse stable were a nice treat. Loved our stay and the views are incredible.

Loved our stay here in the converted stable. We didn't intend to attend the evening dinner, so glad we did, had a great time with 20 other guests. Would recommend this to anyone.

Do not book here unless you are okay driving up turny narrow roads with no guardrail. It is terrifying. Also there is very little parking around the lodge and stables. The view from our room was incredible...it was the best thing about our stay.

wonderful peaceful location and lovely views from our room. convenient for trips to beaches and albatross watching at the end of the peninsula. Walk through lovely gardens for dinner in the castle each evening.

Spent one wonderful night at Larnach Lodge while in Dunedin. While it’s a little far from town it makes up for it with its unique and picturesque setting. The room had a historic feel but also modernly equipped. Breakfast was delicious and being able to tour the castle afterwards before the public entered was a bonus.

Loved staying here! Waking up with a view of the entire city of Dunedin was incredible. The stay included breakfast in the morning (which was delicious) as well as entry into the castle and gardens. In addition, the staff was incredible and even stayed late for us to check-in after a flight delay. Would highly recommend

Feel like royalty when you set foot into the room. The only downside is the deck and lounger need to be updated. The breakfast at Stable set the vibe for us. The staff here is very attentive and helpful.
