Cabot Lodge

What a wonderful time we had at Cabot Lodge. The food was innovative and immaculately prepared. The accommodation and accompanying views were first class. Yet the real standout were the hosts Breidi and Brad. We travel frequently and have yet to meet better hosts. They are genuinely caring, kind and have an amazing attention to detail. Thank you Cabot, you’re the best.

The owners, Breidi & Brad and their incredible team went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience. I could not fault the quality of the lodge, the location and the sumptuous meals from local produce served each day. Thanks so much to you all.

You think the pictures are stunning? Wait till you get there! And you will know before you get there how fabulous it will be as you start corresponding with the lovely Breidi who sets up everything for you! She booked us on the wonderful cruise historic Fiordland Crise "faith" and then the next day on the tour of the doubtful sound. We were greated by Brad who showed us around the lovely property and then met up with us again for drinks and snacks before dinner. The food was outstanding and all local, much from their farm. The only downside of our stay is that we weren't there long enough. It would have been wonderful to have a day just to chill there. Spectacular place with spectacular people that make you feel like family. Can't wait to go back!!

Our stay at Cabot Lodge was a gift to my wife & I from my generous employer. We hadn't had time away from our kids for many years and what a way end that run!!!! This place is like a paradise island in the middle of a Lord of the Rings set. Everything from the warm welcome from Brad, being shown to our room (with the most epic views ever), the glass of bubbles & cheese board, the luxurious massage (not by Brad) to the canapes before dinner & chef prepared meal. This place is pure luxury. It was so nice & relaxing we decided to not even leave on our first full day!!! The outdoor spa bath with a view to die for, fabulous dinning, a warm chair in the library in front of an open fire and luxurious bedroom suites. Why would you want to go anywhere else? Brad & Briedi as hosts are the best. Chatting to Brad seemed more like a friend from the past than a new acquaintance. If you want to visit a truly beautiful part of the world and stay in the best accommodation ever then look no futher. I would love to go back some day.

From the moment we arrived Breidi and Brad looked after us and were very warm and welcoming. Everything and I mean everything was perfect. We stayed in the Garden Suite. Bed was so comfortable, lovely lounge to relax in and look out over the farm, lake and snow capped mountains. Meals were beyond delicious and a big thank you to the chef and staff. Thanks Breidi and Brad for a totally memorable experience!

We had an amazing 5 nights at Cabot Lodge. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Our hosts Brad and Breidi were so accomodating in every way. The accomodation was amazing and the food was sensational. The Lodge is the perfect base to explore Fiordland National Park. We had trips planned everyday and were so fortunate to come home to a warm welcome every day. Read all the other reviews - they are all spot on. One tip is if you get a chance and are interested take a personalised farm tour of Cathedral Peaks Station. Paul and Michelle
