  Unexpected visit

  Stayed after crashing a bike while in nz leading to a weeks rest - Andy was extremely helpful. Did our washing for us, lots of recommendations, helped us fix up our bikes. Beautiful accomodation and facilities. Delicious vegan option breakfast

  Beautiful rural setting, historic farm house

  Away from the craziness of the city, this beautifully restored historic farm house and separate barn are set amongst huge old fruit trees, olive trees and chestnuts. Cows and sheep graze in adjacent paddocks and the property is surrounded by old stone fences. There is a heated swimming pool which was refreshing. The Lodge is located close to the lovely Whangarei Falls and not far from the beaches and walks if Whangarei Heads. We stayed 3 nights. Breakfasts were included and we had various omelettes and other delicious options with lots of good coffee.

  Going the Extra Mile

  Lupton Lodge We had an extremely comfortable, spacious room at the front of this hotel and were able to regroup after a lot of travelling around. The host was a very good chef who made dinner we had ordered from choices we made before our stay. It felt very relaxed and special to dine in the attractive dining room, it was quiet and peaceful and gave us a break from running around looking for a restaurant. The next day the younger ones of our party went diving at Poor Knights. We had not realised they would bring so much dive gear in the other couples car and that they were going elsewhere afterwards, so we somehow had to get all the gear and four people into our car. We tried to hire another car but couldnt find anyone willing to rent us a car that we were not bringing back. When we told our kindly host, Andrew Raven, about our dilemma over breakfast, he could not have been more helpful. He rang around and got us a rental from a local firm which meant we could put all the gear into two vehicles. That made a huge difference to our comfort on the long trip from there to Auckland. We were extremely impressed and would gladly stay again at Lupton Lodge.

  The best place to stay in Whangarei

  We stayed at the Lupton Lodge for the second time, Andy and the family are wonderful hosts. The rooms spotlesly clean and warm (in a kiwi autumn) and the breakfast is superb. Great attention to detail and Andy's so helpful with recommendations of things to do and places to visit

  Cracking establishment

  I could probably cover this off in 2 words highly recommended but I think a bit more is expected. We only stopped one night on our journey north and were thoroughly delighted with Lupton Lodge. We stayed in the Green room, downstairs in the converted barn. It was spacious, clean, bright and well appointed with an adjacent patio area for good measure. The rural setting, only 11/12 mins from downtown Whangarei was charming and peaceful. Andy was an excellent and helpful host and breakfast was a real treat with all dietary requirements catered for. Whangarei is not famous for its accommodation but the Lodge ticks all the boxes and yes, is highly recommended.
