Lakestone build 2.0
Getting Stuck In
We have returned from holiday and the day we have all been waiting for has arrived, we have begun the build. Although Mike would like to attempt to build the lodge himself, sense (and regulations) have prevailed and he will work alongside experienced builder Colin Hunter! This week wasn’t really as exciting as all of those months of waiting had led us to believe. It was a lot of checking and rechecking to ensure everything was perfectly set up before we could begin the more exciting stuff!
What our other guests had to say
The minute the gate opened and we drove up the Lakestone driveway, we instantly felt the stresses of work disappear. We couldn’t have chosen a better place to start our holiday. Our room was breathtaking. The Lodge itself ticks all the boxes. But the thing that stands out here is the...

We throughly enjoyed our stay. What amazing views, waking up to see Mt Cook painted in soft pinks at dawn was truly special. We had a delicious meal, equivalent to any in an upmarket restaurant. Staff were attentive, but unobtrusive. Furniture and layout high quality. I’d love to...

A stay at Lakestone Lodge was our reward for the grind of 2020. The accommodation and food were superb, and the hosts were friendly, attentive and well informed. The star of the show is the location – the lodge discreetly tucked away on a ridge above the road, away from other travellers...
