About

About this getaway

Cabot Lodge is a family-owned all-inclusive luxury lodge on a working sheep, deer and cattle station bordering Fiordland National Park, overlooking Lake Manapouri near Te Anau, New Zealand. Breidi and Brad Alexander host a maximum of twelve guests across boutique suites and The Villa on 268 Hillside-Manapouri Road.

Guests arrive to a welcome drink and lodge tour, then settle into cocktail hour with canapes, a set-menu evening meal showcasing farm-to-plate produce from the property, and a cooked breakfast each morning with home baking and seasonal fruit replenished daily. The stay includes walking trails, a private fishing jetty, an extensive library, massage services, a spa pool, 4WD farm tours, and beekeeping excursions.

Cabot Lodge is a base for Milford Sound, Doubtful Sound, Kepler Track, Milford Track, and Routeburn Track adventures. Suites range from Deluxe options to the Premier Suite and exclusive-use bookings for groups. Book direct at cabotlodge.co.nz.

Breidi and Brad Alexander welcome guests to Cabot Lodge as a genuine Kiwi hosted experience on a New Zealand sheep and deer station bordering Fiordland National Park. As Breidi describes, produce served at the lodge is gathered and grown on the property — proteins from the farm, greens from glasshouses, honey from their bees, handmade soaps from tallow, and wine from neighbouring vineyards.
