The Summit Lodge and Gardens

About The Summit Lodge and Gardens

Relax and unwind at the Summit Lodge, much more than just a bed for the night, luxury, purpose built accommodation in Gladstone, the heart of rural Wairarapa. Gourmet breakfasts, home baking and evening meals available on request ($60pp, wine available or BYO). Rated five star, silver by Qualmark and No 1 B&B in Masterton by Trip Advisor.

Surrounded by farmland and rolling hills yet only a short drive to wineries, Greytown, Carterton and Masterton towns; the Summit Lodge is perfect for a city-escape and a great base to explore the Wairarapa – the towns, the coast, the bush, wineries and attractions.

Meet the on-site, friendly alpacas and explore the large, mainly native-planted gardens and enjoy the birdlife and fabulous night skies.

You can eat in or at the local Gladstone Inn (complimentary transport available). Eating in, your hosts have travelled extensively and love food so can turn their hand to Asian meals - Indian, Thai, Vietnamese and European dishes as well as local, seasonal specialities such as slow cooked lamb or succulent steaks. Keto, vegan, lactose-free, GF, vegetarian options available on request.
