Blanket Bay
A world-class lodge deserves only world class trees! This stunning lodge is situated on the edge of lake Wakatipu, and is one of the most beautiful settings to stay at in New Zealand, perhaps even the world.
With vast native plantings, metres of Pittosporum ‘Wrinkle Blue’ screening, and large grade specimen trees, the landscaping here provides the perfect foreground for an award winning accomodation facility.
