We stayed one night only… were met by Andy and shown around. The Lodge is out of this world… peaceful surroundings, rural outlook. We stayed in the Red Room… the furnishings are of the highest standard. There is plenty to do at the lodge… swimming pool, lounge with pool table, great library of DVDS, CDS [...]

The breakfasts were amazing and kept us full until dinner time. We had one dinner at the house, cooked by Andy, and it was lovely – [...]

Die Lupton Lodge liegt abgelegen und erinnert an ein kleines Hotel. In einem herrschaftlichen älteren Haus sind mehrere Gästezimmer untergebracht. Unser Zimmer war sehr sauber und hat uns gut gefallen. Das Lupton Special war das beste Frühstück, dass ich auf unserer Reise durch Neuseeland bekommen habe. Außerdem gibt es Billard, einen kleinen Pool und DVDs [...]

The high-ceilinged bedroom was spacious and furnished with a comfortable sofa and flat-screen TV. Andy prepared an excellent breakfast [...]

Auf dem Weg von Auckland in den Norden haben wir in der Lupton Lodge eine Nacht verbracht. Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dem grosszügigen Zimmer, Red Room (inkl. Nebenzimmer und einfachem, aber adäquat eingerichteten Badezimmer). Die Gastgeber sind freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Nachtessen war OK, vielleicht etwas gar “routiniert” zubereitet (nicht so schmackhaft wie home [...]

Hosts are very helpful and friendly. We stayed in the Gold Room. Very nice. House is beautifully furnished and breakfast is great. Definitely recommend! Gold Room – March 2012 This review has been taken directly from tripadvisor.com

We stayed in the Red Room, which is well equipped, spacious, comforatble and quiet. We were still rather jet lagged and therefore booked dinner at the Lodge rather than driving into Whangarei. Our host, Andy, provided an excellent dinner, and breakfast the following morning was equally good. Red Room – February 2012 This review has [...]
