Craigieburn, New Zealand
Flockhill Lodge
A peaceful valley retreat
Adventure meets luxury at this private high-country escape
Lose yourself in the spectacular landscapes of New Zealand’s South Island as you settle into a luxurious room at Flockhill Lodge, hidden away in the Craigieburn Valley. The property is situated on a working sheep station, surrounded by rugged mountains, winding rivers and glittering lakes.
You have two accommodation options to choose from. The Homestead is an exclusive four-bedroom property ideal for groups of up to eight guests. You’ll benefit from spacious living areas with books and games, a terrace with a pool, hot spa and fire pit, and a private chef and attendant.
Alternatively, stay in a suite or private villa, with meals included at the on-site restaurant, Sugarloaf. It offers a menu of delicious modern New Zealand cuisine that showcases local and seasonal produce – much of which is grown in the property’s garden.
We highly recommend the hotel’s signature Farm Tour, which is included in every stay. It gives you an authentic glimpse of life on a South Island sheep station, including meeting the sheepdogs and watching them round up a flock. Other experiences that allow you to make the most of your time in this alpine landscape include hiking, caving, mountain biking, horse riding and stargazing.
Flockhill Lodge has a well-equipped gym and dedicated yoga studio. You can also visit the Wellness Spa for a relaxing treatment, dip in the hot tub, or to use the cedar sauna and cold plunge pool.
