Fiordland Lodge Accommodation, New Zealand

Fiordland Guides and Lodge Introduction

A ten guest room luxury lodge for the discerning traveller opened in November 2002. Located on the highway to Milford Sound, Fiordland lodge offers the discerning traveller style, comfort and privacy, yet is only five kilometres from tourist township of Te Anau.

Also available at our Fiordland lodge accommodation are two log cabins offering dinner, bed and breakfast.

Fiordland Lodge is owned and operated by Ron and Robynne Peacock of Te Anau who also operate Fiordland Guides.

The Setting

On forty acres of land, this Te Anau lodge is set on a superb site with commanding views out across Lake Te Anau. This is a rural setting with rolling grass lands surrounding the lodge, Lake Te Anau being a mere ten minute walk away.

Across the lake to the west lie the mountains of Fiordland National Park, an area of over three million acres of untouched wilderness and part of the much larger South West New Zealand World Heritage Area.

Our Te Anau Luxury Lodge

New Zealand oregon logs feature throughout Fiordland lodge, with exposed log beams and log trusses supporting sarked timber ceilings.

In the lounge, a lattice work of huge log trusses soar to over thirty-six feet above and surround a large open fire clad with local river stone. This is a focus point where one can relax and reflect on the day's adventures and plan tomorrow's.

Our Fiordland Lodge Accommodation

The ten luxury guest rooms—one an executive suite with separate lounge area for private entertaining—look out across Lake Te Anau. Each guest room at our Te Anau lodge is furnished with super king size beds, with well appointed private bathrooms.

Log Cabins – The log cabins are on our forty acre property just five kilometre's north of the tourist township of Te Anau on Highway 94 to Milford Sound. The cabins are separate and private from the main lodge.

To the north and east, views are out across rural farm land and the distant mountains of northern Fiordland.

The two log cabins have been built in the traditional manner with hand peeled, sun dried New Zealand oregon logs. Interior finishing is with recycled native New Zealand timber for floors, ceilings, joinery and bench tops.

The log cabins are offered as bed and breakfast, include dinner and a full breakfast. Both cabins have a living area, and bathroom with spa bath. Each cabin is fitted with a quality queen-size bed downstairs and on a mezzanine floor above, cabin one has a twin room and cabin two has three singles which is ideal for families.
