Surrounded by national park and forest in North Otago, The Lindis sits in part of a 2428-hectare station, 2.5 hours’ drive from Queenstown
Opting to cut into a hillside so as to leave the South Island wilderness vistas virtually uninterrupted, the hotel fosters a beautiful and harmonious marriage between its structure and that of the land.
Clad in one-way mirrors, the villas all but disappear into the frontier, yet from the inside, the accommodation seems to hover seamlessly in the landscape. Each pod measures 20 metres square and offers a sumptuous bed for two, en-suite and an outdoor gas-heated tub on a private deck. The accommodation may be jaw dropping, but it’s the great outdoors that’s the true hero of this experience and The Lindis offers a range of activities in which to enjoy it.
And if that wasn’t enough, the surrounding environment offers a myriad of ways to further engage. From angling in the Ahuriri River, to horse trekking around the expansive Ben Avon Station, The Lindis experience extends far beyond the threshold of their doors. And is entirely underpinned by the unquestionably warm high country hospitality.
