The open architecture of Fiordland Lodge reflects the vastness of the Fiordland National Park. Echoes of the forest are found in the striking natural timber construction.

High ceilings, full trunk pillars and a massive riverstone fireplace provide a warm spacious environment with a sense of solidity and style.

A commanding staircase leads from the impressive lounge to a peaceful inviting mezzanine, complete with library and fly tying area.

Located on the highway to Milford Sound, Fiordland Lodge offers the discerning traveller style, comfort and privacy, yet is only five kilometers from the tourist township of Te Anau.

On forty acres of land, Fiordland 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.

The Lodge's comfortable dining area serves excellent food coupled with superb wine from the cellar (see sample menu below).

Sun dried and hand peeled New Zealand oregon logs feature throughout the building 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.

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 is furnished with super king size beds and appointed private bathrooms.

Large solid timber tables are fitted out in the dining area where local cuisine is a feature of the menu. The dining area is complimented by the wine cellar from where the evenings wine can be chosen.

The fully licensed bar features a solid fitch rimu timber bar top, a relaxing spot to enjoy complimentary pre dinner drinks and a great gathering place.

The conference room seating thirty and fitted out with audio and visual equipment is ideal for corporate retreats or special interest groups for which evening interpretation is available.

Fiordland Lodge features quiet areas where one can browse through the carefully chosen library or access the internet.

A courtesy vehicle is available for access to Te Anau as required.
