Birds Ferry Lodge is seamlessly set upon a hilltop where it sits content, quietly musing on the far-reaching, sea-lined views and acres of wild bush clad countryside. This is one of the more remote South Island lodges but it is easily accessible by car being only 2kms from SH6 and also convenient to Westport and Punakaiki.
Guest accommodation is both luxurious and private, and designed with your comfort in mind. Enjoy the legendary breakfasts (included) and add to that the option of enjoying fine food and wines at dinner, in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.
In particular, the Garden Art Room boasts total mobility facilities with direct access to ramped deck and garden.
