larnach castle 
Larnach Castle is New Zealand's only Castle sitting in superb grounds high on a hilltop of the Otago Peninsula looking out over the waters of Otago Harbour, 20 minutes by car north of Dunedin. It was built over 5 years from 1871 by the extremely wealthy baron William Larnach. Its lavish interiors took another 11 years to complete. Filled with New Zealand antiques, it and its 35 acres of its Garden of National Significance are open daily to visitors.
Within the grounds lies a colonial style farm building with 12 holiday accommodation rooms individually decorated in period style. All have a magnificent view of the ocean 100 feet below and ensuite bathrooms. Lodge guests are invited on a complimentary tour of Larnach Castle and breakfast is included in the tariff. There is also a converted stable with 6 rooms and shared bathroom facilities.
