Guest Suites
Private suites, studios and a family wing strive to create a second home for your alpine retreat.

Cove Room: Upstairs room with verandah, king/twin beds, ensuite bathroom. Lovely views over mountains and native beech forest.

These two rooms create a pair, referred to as the Cove Wing, which are adjacent to the swimming pool and spa. They are self contained but work well for two couples travelling together. The Punatapu Suite is downstairs and the Cove Room is accessed by an external staircase.

Stable: Queen bed, ensuite bathroom upstairs, lovely outlook towards the lake. Private walled courtyard.

Barn Studio: Staircase access to super king or twin beds. Downstairs soft seating, gas fire, kitchenette, unique bath and shower ensuites.

The above two rooms, in a converted barn, are adjacent but not interconnecting and are well suited to parties travelling together.

Family Suite: Three separate bedrooms, double and twin room upstairs, king room with one large ensuite downstairs, soft seating area, open fire and games room.

Internet, telephone access, CD stereo systems, tv, video, hairdryers, quality cotton linen, bathrobes, fridges stocked with complimentary soft drinks, iced water, fruit and flowers are standard in every suite.
 

Food & Wine:

The food and wine will be on a par with the finest food anywhere but you will enjoy it in a relaxed, low-key, New Zealand atmosphere.

Breakfast on the patio as the sun rises from behind the mountains or in the sunlit conservatory chatting with your personal chef. Dine intimately with a loved one in private or in the company of people Punatapu has drawn together.

Explore ‘the art of cooking from Aotearoa’ with a culinary lesson in the whareumu (cookhouse). Gather in the drawing room for a good yarn with your hosts or simply relax in front of the fire with a glass of wine and a good book.
