Why we recommend Pen y Bryn Lodge
Oamaru and the Waitaki District have been one of New Zealand’s fastest-growing travel destinations for several years now, and Pen Y Bryn Lodge is an example of the fantastic accommodation on offer. Rooms are traditional, yet cozy and quirky. We particularly recommend booking The Nest Room with its sunken bedroom and views towards the Pacific Ocean and the Kakanui Ranges. The dining here is also exceptional.
