非常热情,早餐和晚餐都非常不错,晚餐很有风格,值得尝试
Last stop for our south island road trip. The place was stunning, The staff were super welcoming. It included the tickets for Larnach Castle and gardens. Definitely recommend anyone going to dunedin to stay there.

Beautiful room in a stunning location. Breakfast was delicious. The staff couldn’t help us enough, we were treated like royalty. Dinner at the castle was delicious and a lot of fun. Highly recommend!
Absolutely nothing.
The bed was comfortable the room and establishment was clean and very elaborate the view was breathtaking. The Camp Estate itself is a very upmarket and five star establishment.
The staff were accommodating until our early morning departure for the coach. They booked us a taxi, however failed to tell the taxi driver exactly where to come. The front door was locked and I had to find us an exit out of the building which was not explained although they knew our early departure time. We had to drag 20kg bags down a steep gravel and unsafe driveway in the dark to come to lock iron gates with no exit button. My husband managed to pull the gates open enough for me to squeeze through where I pushed the intercom. A staff member finally answered and we could exit the entrance and load our bags into the taxi. A very dissapointing experience
Absolutely stunning location, wonderful staff, very comfortable and well furnished room. Make sure to walk up the sheep paddock for incredible views of the peninsula and also visit the castle.
A bit too modern decor for us.
Room was exceptional and the facilities are first class. The one table dining is a great concept to get people talking.
We were met by our hostess Laura who was friendly and efficient. She was a very charming lady who gave us lots of ideas as the weather wasn’t great and she had a lot of local knowledge. Our room was quiet and did have a lovely view which revealed itself after a few days! We had an evening meal in the castle which was excellent. A fun experience for everyone.
I would have liked more fresh fruit at breakfast but there was plenty of other choices.
Heerlijke locatie buiten Dunedin. Etentje op Larnach Castle erg leuk

Lovely location, excellent attentive staff who were very accommodating
Die Lage war einzigartig, das Personal war sehr sehr freundlich. Der Komfort, die Ausstattung einzigartig.
Nobody there when we arrived (but yes, we arrived before check-in time)
.
Loved the property was made to feel special on arrival by the host also loved the canapés arranged before going for the meal and breakfast was great
Dust on the top of side cabinet next to bed where light was so for what you pay to stay for one night you expect things to be spotless
A spectacular property. Incredibly comfortable and luxurious. Loved the home-cooked breakfast, evening drink / canapes, and dinner at the castle. Wonderful place to return to, after an incredible hike 10 mins away: Sandfly Beach and Sandpoint Hill Loop!
Minor comment: Hottub could have been a bit hotter. Perhaps it was because the day was cool and blustery.
Very individual and right what was needed. They have a Jura Espresso Machine and can make perfect coffee, Cappuccino and Espresso. Eggs are made to your liking and also pastry available. Room Temperature control is very good since there is AirCo but also extra Heating.
The bathroom is a little small (single sink), but water pressure on the shower is perfect, really enjoying especially if it is a little cold outside, you get a big hot shower warming you up.
The staff is exceptional! Thank you to Trish, Abby and Holly for making our stay extra special. The room was very comfortable and super clean. Coffee was perfect and breakfast delicious! Note: the location is a solid 40 min from Dunedin Don’t miss a visit to the penguin sanctuary on the tip of the same peninsula
Location
Lovely spacious and clean room and nice to be offered a drink in the evening. We loved chatting to Patricia over breakfast
The distance to find a meal on the second night
Amazing. Laurie and Holly were excellent hostesses. Beautiful views and about 500m from castle where we had dinner. Breakfast was served at the Camp Estate which has lovely sitting areas for cozy chats and pre-dinner drinks (we were driven to the Castle so no need to drive or walk).
Everything was just top notch. It is a steep and narrow drive to the Estate but this is consistent for many rentals and hotels in the area.
The property was beautiful. We enjoyed the room, bathroom. The breakfast was disappointing. It took 45 minutes from ordering to receiving sitting there from 8:30am to 9:15am watching others eat, then having them watch us was super awkward. Change breakfast so that it can be served within 15 minutes of ordering, even if all 10 people come down at similar times.
Loved the quiet location. Beautiful building, helpful and accommodating staff, gorgeous and big rooms. Great location for exploring Otaga Peninsula
Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was very nice.
Staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. We were met with a very warm welcome. Camp estate was exceptional quality. Wonderful location to explore the peninsula.
Met by a very welcoming host who helped with our luggage.
Our stay at Camp Estates at Larnach Castle was lovely. From the moment we rang at the gate to check in until the moment we drove away we were pampered and spoiled with royal service. The accommodations are beautiful and the breakfast was delicious. The view is second to none, as it looks down over the Otago Harbor. Every detail was just perfect. We look forward to returning.
Very clean and tidy, staff were friendly and helpful
Beautiful property, fantastic service. If we could rate higher than a 10 we would😇
Breakfast was fresh and high quality ingredients.
Would have liked an email reminder for arrival details but otherwise could not fault the exceptional and personal attentiveness. All the staff members were fantastic and very helpful
Palatial premises. Excellent staff. Great meeting other tourists to share our adventures with. We also enjoyed the Trust the Chef degustation dinner. It would be great if the chef could come out and speak with the guests.
The weather!
A luxurious experience - a real treat in a beautiful location close to Larnach Castle which is a place dear to my heart.

Camp Estate is located on a fabulous spot just a short drive away from Larnach Castle. The property is exceptional and beautiful with the entire team there being welcoming and friendly. We were a bit apprehensive about what to expect given this property is at the upper end of accommodation available in Dunedin (and not cheap), but we weren't disappointed and the entire stay and experience was enjoyable. We met some lovely people also staying at the property and enjoyed their company at dinner and breakfast. We had dinner at the castle (booked separately) but a small and lovely touch was that our host Amy remembered that it was my birthday and had organised with the castle team to provide a small dessert cake and candle! The cooked breakfast and selection was also exceptional.. thoughtfully prepared and served by the lovely morning team. We stayed in Room 3 which had the best view and were blown away by how peaceful and beautiful it was outside our window.
Nothing major but a couple of things that I think could really elevate this property to the next level - we noticed that the guests had to carry their own bags in and out. I know in New Zealand this is fairly normal, but we have stayed in locations overseas were there is a porter service at the door (at least on arrival), which just adds that little additional touch of class and exclusivity that Camp Estate is missing as a first impression, but can easily implement for a memorable check-in experience (I must mention though that we were asked if we needed help with our bags, but it felt like the correct response is to decline the offer - if we really needed it, I'm sure they would have been happy to help). Also, we stayed in room 3 and felt the air conditioning/ventilation system wasn't quite effective (reduced the thermostat right down but had no effect). It was a hot weekend and we ended up having to sleep with the windows open just to get some air and ventilation passing through (but still wasn't quite as comfortable as it should have been). Perhaps a fan or something similar might be a nice bonus addition to the room to help on days like we had. Heating options are well covered for the winter however.
The rooms are very luxurious with beautiful amenities. The bath tub was huge, great views from the property. The staff were incredibly helpful & kind. I did not realize breakfast was included so that was a nice surprise to have a home cooked breakfast to order. We stayed for 2 nights. Thank you so much. Also the pillows and bed were 10/10 comfy!
The place is new and beautiful,a bit far away from Blue penguin Pukekura, a little tricky driving back .

Great quiet room, fabulous staff!!
From arrival to departure, my wife and I were totally satisfied for what we paid for. Staffs were friendly and helpful. Interior and exterior of the mansion were amazing. Loved the heated bathroom floor and fireplace in room especially we arrived on a cold night.
can’t think of any yet
Everything, the decor was absolutely beautiful. The complimentary wine of an evening was a wow factor. The staff very friendly. The breakfast was awesome. The gas fireplace was fantastic. Such a beautiful property.

Lovely breakfast made to order
I wish there had been a bath tub since I was cold after a big day out on the peninsula
The accomadation was amazing and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Thanks!
Everything was beyond our already high expectations. The castle and gardens were spectacular, and the peninsula offered even more treats.
beautiful
Quiet spot, lovely room and view, super comfortable bed. Great hosts, very friendly and lovely. Fantastic dinner at the Castle and then a delicious breakfast before we left. Brilliant stay.
The Camp Estate is a superb Art Deco style lodge just outside the castle. The rooms are spacious with en-suite, super comfy and ours had a great view back towards Dunedin. The staff were great and could not have done more for us. The breakfasts were superb.
We had dinner at the castle one night. The meal could have been better but this does not reflect on the actual accommodation.
Both were excellent.
Bed was a bit soft.
Tye personalised welcome and my gorgeous room
Hay-fever but that's out of the control of the facility
warm and excellent service from all staff. Stunning views. immaculate.
Absolutely beautiful experience, would 1 thousand percent stay again! and recommend this to everyone i know! beautiful room, delicious food, helpful and kind staff!
nothing! everything exceeded expectations

clean, comfortable property in a quiet location with lovely views over the harbour. staff were very friendly and helpful. breakfast was very good. We dined at the castle both nights that we stayed here, and the staff drove us to the castle and back again after dinner. Really nice touch.
nothing
Newly renovated, beautiful decor, very tasty breakfast cooked to order, amazingly frontline staff, few guests, free wine in the evening, nice location on top of hill with view.
Dinner options limited — only served at nearby (separate drive) castle as prix fix (sharing table w other guests). too far to drive for dinner into town. Adding deck chairs on the front lawn would have been good.
This was a special place to stay .we had a spacious room with fabulous views and the staff were very helpful.
nothing
Everything. An outstanding venue in an amazing location with great views. Breakfast was provided as part of the stay.
I really enjoyed the wonderful hospitality of all the staff. The accommodation is outstanding but the staff are the heart of the place. Enjoyed meeting other guests.
Conveniently located to visit Larnach Castle. Very friendly staff. Comfortable rooms.
Iinteresting Art Deco design a little sterile and may not be to everyone's taste. You would have expected a warmer cosier interior based on the stone exterior and the location on a foggy and windy hill.
location and luxury of the lodge
could have included extra special touches, like chocolates, flowers etc
Absolutely stunning location & the accommodation was beautiful & luxurious
Friendly accommodating staff.
Bed was a wee bit saggy and pillows uncomfortable.
Wow! Amazing experience. Beautiful facilities in a stunning location with service that makes you feel like royalty.
It would be hard to find a more pleasant place to lodge the night. Wonderful rooms, the service was excellent. Very satisfying. And the weather allowed us magnificent views up the harbour.
They are very welcoming and helpful with local info and insights! After a long day they made us feel right at home. Would definitely go back!
Modern yet contemporary. Staff wonderful. Fabulous location. Dinner at the castle a treat.
Small, exclusive property with attention to detail. Outstanding service and hospitality.
Beautiful property with fantastic views of Dunedin. The staff was excellent, very attentive, friendly and accommodating. Very nice room too!
The accommodation is amazing, there are only 5 rooms in the property, so small just how I like. 5 star in every way. As a guest you can go to dinner at the castle, was a great experience too (it's not free). The Otago peninsular is great, beaches, wildlife and scenery.
Perfect check in, perfect room, perfect service. A luxurious experience.
Beautiful place on the peninsula Great area for walks and beautiful views of the ocean and Harbour
We stayed one night at Camp Estate, and had a great experience. Our hostess Vivi was very welcoming and friendly. The room was beautiful- very well appointed, with a gas fire. Breakfast was included and was a full cooked breakfast of your choice, dining with the other guests. We were in Dunedin to go to a concert. Vivi arranged transport for us into Dunedin, and back afterwards. Our bus driver was very informative and helpful. Though the lodge is on the peninsula rather than in town, I would thoroughly recommend staying here. The views were spectacular, the staff wonderful and the rooms luxurious. It also had the added bonus of being within easy walking distance of Larnach Castle, a great local attraction.
we’ve had a great time staying at Camp Estate & Castle dinning with very interesting group of people!!
Attractive well furnished room. Good breakfast. Pleasant walk to the impressive Larnach Castle with free entry for Camp guests.
This place was amazing! Our room was stunning. As we pulled up, we were met by Roger who was the host. He was so helpful and hospitable. Dinner at the castle is a must! What a lovely evening we had there. In the morning, Roger and Sandra cooked breakfast for us which was just wonderful. Sandra was very helpful and caring as well. It felt like we were staying with family! Thank you both for a wonderful experience at a wonderful place. If you're in Dunedin, stay here!
