Tranquil Accommodation on the Southern End of Danseys Pass, New Zealand

Description

Originally built in 1862 to provide accommodation to travellers passing through the Kyeburn Diggings mining settlement during the Otago Gold Rush, this historical lodge on Danseys Pass, New Zealand, has been carefully refurbished to preserve the core aspects of its original building and retain its 19th century character, all while bringing its comforts and amenities into the 21st century.

This accommodation provides up to two adult guests and an additional child with one bedroom and a full ensuite bathroom. The bedroom contains a queen-size bed, with a rollaway bed or cot available if a child is accompanying the guests. Linens and towels are provided. Other amenities include central heating, facilities for making coffee and tea, and Wi-Fi access throughout the lodge's public spaces.

The public spaces include a lounge, a bar, and a dining room/restaurant. The lounge provides an ideal place to relax, socialize, or warm up after a long day outside, with a variety of couches and sofa chairs set around a large fireplace in a rustic, cozy setting distinguished by wood floors, brick walls, and vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are available at the dining room/restaurant, while an extensive range of wines, whiskeys, and other liquors can be ordered from the bar and sipped by the warm glow of the fireplace.

The lodge thus provides guests with an accommodation that is not just a place to sleep while they explore the many attractions of the surrounding Maniototo region, but also a destination onto itself—a place for them to unwind, dine, drink, and enjoy each other's company in its unique, welcoming, and peaceful atmosphere, which evokes the bygone days of the gold rush-era while celebrating the pleasures of the present.

At the lodge, guests will enjoy access to a lounge, a bar, and a dining room/restaurant, the interiors of which reflect the lodge's Gold Rush-era heritage. In the lounge, guests will find a cozy, rustic space for socializing, replete with comfortable couches and sofa chairs, a large fireplace, wooden floors, and bricks walls set beneath a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams.

The lodge's restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a similarly cozy and rustic setting. For breakfast, guests can enjoy blueberry pancakes with maple syrup, eggs Benedict, and tea or freshly ground coffee. The lunch and dinner menus feature locally-grown produce and can be paired with the restaurant's extensive selection of wines, whiskeys, and other liquors.

Within their accommodation, guests will enjoy central heating and facilities for making coffee and tea. They will also enjoy Wi-Fi access throughout the lodge's public areas.
