Situated within the grounds of the impressive Larnach Castle, Larnach Lodge offers individually decorated rooms with free Wi-Fi and panoramic views of the harbour and the Otago Peninsula

Offering access to shared bathroom facilities, some rooms are located in the historic stables originally built by the Lanarch family. Other rooms feature a private bathroom and are located in the lodge itself.

This is a special place and I am grateful that I was able to stay the night and also partake of the evening meal in the castle. Very beautiful, historic place, amazing garden and setting. Wonderful staff.

    Gary was very helpful in providing a parking space for our trailer which we really appreciated. We will definitely return to Alcala Motor Lodge when next visiting Dunedin.

    Lodge is located away from the road, in a safe area. Bed was very comfy and was the best nights sleep. The shower was hot and had good pressure. Parking at the front door. The Host, Lennard, was polite and helpful and showed us around. The shared facilities: kitchen, lounge and dining were immaculate, very clean comfortable and tastefully decorated.

    Staff were exceptional. The view from our room in the lodge, of the peninsular was breathtaking. Touring the castle and experiencing the dinner with travellers from around the world made our stay even more memorable.

    If you want to visit the penguins, walking distance is quite a bit. I suggest you drive from the lodge to there. Lodge in genral was ok. It is near the road, rooms are spacious.

    We loved staying at the lodge. Views were spectacular from our room. Clean, comfy and lovely rooms. The included breakfast in the stables was fantastic and being able to wander the grounds and the castle was amazing. Absolutely amazing stay.

    Everything from the spine tingling drive up the mountain through the trip through the castle, the superb room in the lodge, dinner in the dining room, the amazing sunrise over the Otago Peninsula and breakfast in the stables in the morning. Even the prices in the gift shop were most reasonable
