Amazing. We had en-suite queen rooms, which were clean, comfortable and beautifully and individually decorated. Tea and coffee maker and a small fridge were appreciated. The views were stunning and we loved sitting on the balcony listening to the birds. Breakfast was excellent. We spent a lovely morning wandering the gardens.

An outstanding location and facilities. some elements were superb, others due a refresh. Overall loved the experience and would wholeheartedly recommend. Dinner was delightful in the Castle dining room with lovely flavours. Service was "quirky" if a little slapdash which detracted from the chef's presentation. Castle tour and gardens were fascinsting and a great tribute to the owners and staff alike.

Great value and full of character. Lots of space albeit reduced head space! Fantastic and generous breakfast. There was no mention of whether they recycled some waste materials, which was a shame. The shared bathroom facilities were clean and lots of hot water. Brilliant to have access to the house and gardens

Our room in the lodge was spacious and decorated beautifully. The view from our window over the Otago peninsula was spectacular and the sounds of the birds was beautiful. There was a delicious spread at breakfast in the stables. The dinner in the castle was delicious! We were all seated together at a long table and we were chatting to the other guests. Service was excellent and we got a wee guided tour afterwords.

Most amazing stay at this fabulous, unique property. Our room was amazing, as were the views from our windows. Breakfast included was delicious, and the opportunity to explore the castle and gardens as part of the package was fantastic. Loved our stay and would definitely come back.

We stayed one night in the "Stables" accommodation. The atmosphere and novelty of this type of stay was our reason for doing so. Overall our stay was great with the buffet breakfast being the highlight. For the price (which included visit inside the castle and the buffet breakfast) seemed good to us. We are NOT the type of people who usually chooses sharing bathroom facilities with strangers. However, it was "off season" so there was only one other couple staying in the lodge besides our family party of 5 therefore, it wasn't a problem. We were pleased that the room and bathroom facilities were very clean and tidy. The room was sufficiently warm for end of May. Our mattress on the bed was not very firm and comfortable but tolerable. Staying at the castle overnight was convenient for travelling to the end of the peninsula to view the penguins at dusk and to eat dinner in Portabello.

My recommendation is to not stay in the stables. There is very little headroom in the corner rooms and it made for an uncomfortable stay particularly if you have to get up to go to the loo during the night. Otherwise everything else about a stay at Larnach Castle is sublime. The dining experience in the castle at night involves average food but well worth it for the convivial shared evening with other guests and staff

Absolutely amazing ! Instead of writing an extesive review of how glorious our stay was ,please ...if you have the opportunity to visit Larnach Castle take some time to stay here for at least one nighr,explore the castle and grounds, be inspired and intrigued by the social history ,soak up the breath taking views and atmosphere .In the evening book a four course trust the chef dinner ,meet other guests and dine ,by candlelight in the castle itself all this made possible by the wonderful friendly staff who,are truly exceptional .Relax in a warm and very comfortable bed in the stsbles and wake up to an excellent breakfast served downstairs in the tack room . No rush to leave after checkout, you are welcomed to stay and and resume your castle viewing and gardens at your leisure or have lunch in the ballroom cafe where they also serve an afternoon tea.

Far exceeded our expectations. Special room with a special view. Sumptuous dinner in the castle (extra cost - but worth it!) Delicious breakfast and complimentary entry to tour the castle. A really fabulous stay! Thank you.

The Lodge at Lanarch Castle was comfortable with updated bathroom. The view from our bedroom across to Port Chalmers and along the harbour were amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner in the castle and our breakfasts in the Stables.

4.7

Mar 2024

While the location is superb, and being able to stay on the Lanarch Castle grounds was a big plus, the rooms are too small, essentially windowless, and sharing dorm-style bathrooms is annoying and does not fit the "castle" theme. Converting the stable was a good idea, but it needs to be redesigned for the contemporary visitor.

Enjoyable Experience! Pretty good value, a nights stay, breakfast for 2, access to the castle & grounds/gardens. The Stables were clean and tidy, excellent breakfast was included - buffet style with cooked breakfast options - full English cooked breakfast, pancakes or Eggs Benedict. The room was small but cosy with good heating, the room was very clean, it had a small jug for hot drinks, a couple of mugs and glasses, a small iron and ironing board. Basic laundry facilities available. A small fridge is provided upstairs in the stables for communal use. The bathrooms were also clean but quite dated and potentially quite cold in autumn/winter months. The shower was a little on the dingy side, which is my only real complaint, it was clean but had obviously mold, could benefit from being up graded. I believe they have a Trust the Chief dinner arrangement (at an additional cost) where you can have dinner in the castle, and there's a cafe in the ballroom. You are able to leave the grounds any time you wish and are given a code to access the gates. Parking can be a bit of a squeeze for the stables and lodge with not many spots available. Definitely not a wheelchair accessible place to stay. Overall it was good value for money and an enjoyable once in a lifetime opportunity to stay and enjoy the atmosphere of Larnach's Castle after dark.

Wow - just fantastic views of the Otago peninsular from our room. The dining experience in the Castle is a must do. Great meal and service in a unique ambiance. Great value too as garden and castle visit is included in the room rate.

Obviously the location is the reason to stay here, it’s absolutely spectacular. The rooms in the stables are basic and the beds and bedding have seen better days. If they invested some money into the stables area it could be fabulous and they could charge more but I realise the upkeep of the castle will take priority. The price is good for what you get.

Such a shame that toxic new carpeting was recently installed. Had a migraine all night and felt nauseated from the stench of the new carpet. Ugly grey and no way to ventilate the room. Couldn’t sleep. Also could not believe that smoking is allowed “anywhere outside” so it’s like playing Russian Roulette suffering from pulmonary and cardiovascular rape. Surely they could make the whole property non-smoking. The fire danger alone would make that worthwhile endeavor. The gardens are beautiful, but the castle was overcrowded with tourists… bus loads… all coughing without masks, and barely any room to get by them.

One of the best deals we have found. In addition to having a good clean room, you're able to tour the Castle grounds and the castle during your visit, and we were served a full breakfast that was so hardy we were unable to finish it. It was in a great location, and one of only four hotels that some of the tour groups will do pickups at. Highly recommend it.

Loved our time at Lanarch Castle. The included breakfast was exceptional. We chose to join the “Chef’s Choice Dinner” option and it was well worth it. We met some lovely people from around the globe and had the most incredible 4 course dinner with beverage. It’s more than an overnight, it’s an experience.
