Roger and Karen welcome you to Awen Lodge, our North Canterbury, New Zealand homestay.
'Awen' means the spirit of inspiration and few people remain unmoved by the awe-inspiring beauty of our surroundings. Guests come here to paint, take photographs, to walk and sometimes, just to be still and find peace and quiet in the tranquillity of mountains, rushing streams and forest. Many choose to break a long journey because our reputation for caring for our guests and 'going the extra mile' has preceded us.
Just 40 minutes from Christchurch airport, we offer 4-star quality bed and breakfast accommodation on a small farm in a beautiful, peaceful setting adjoining Mount Grey and Ashley Forest. Being close to Christchurch we have the best of rural living combined with ease of access to the shops and amenities of a large city.
Amberley is a fifteen minute drive away; it has excellent restaurants and an 18 hole country golf course with stunning views of Amberley Beach. From Awen Lodge it is a also a fifteen minute drive to the Waipara Valley with its profusion of vineyards that produce the world famous range of Waipara wines.
Our guests say nice things about their stay with us (check us out on TripAdvisor) and many have become friends, sharing news and jokes from around the world on a regular basis.
Awen Lodge is the ideal base from which to explore the Alpine Pacific Triangle and its well-known attractions of the hot pools at Hanmer Springs and the whale watching and swimming with dolphins at Kaikoura.
