A Truly Memorable Stay at Arcadia Lodge, Russell

Two couples from Australia travelling together were absolutely delighted with our time in the Bay of Islands. Our stay at the beautiful Arcadia Lodge in the charming town of Russell made the experience even more special.
Arcadia Lodge is a boutique accommodation overlooking the picturesque Matauwhi Bay, just a short and pleasant walk into the heart of Russell. This charming historic home is tastefully appointed, blending character with modern comfort.
Our suites were very comfortable, featuring king-size beds and thoughtful touches throughout.
What truly made our stay memorable was the outstanding hospitality offered by our hosts, Greg and Peter. Greg shared fascinating insights into the history of the home and provided us with detailed information about Russell and the Bay of Islands region. He also went above and beyond by making restaurant and tour bookings on our behalf.
In addition to their warm hospitality, the ultimate highlight was the beautifully presented three-course breakfast created each morning by Peter, featuring fresh and preserved ingredients from their garden.
If you're planning a trip to the Bay of Islands, a stay at Arcadia Lodge is an absolute must.
Thank you, Greg and Peter, for your warm hospitality, sharing your beautiful home, and for offering such wonderful insight into your amazing backyard.

This historic house, built in the early 1900's has been beautifully maintained with exquisite attention to detail throughout. The views are stunning and the breakfasts, prepared by one of the hosts who is a trained chef are to die for. Easy walking distance into Russell, with loads to do, see, and places to eat there. A variety of rooms and super friendly hosts, can't wait to return, summer or winter.

Arcadia Lodge is a beautiful old historical home which has been upgraded to luxury standard with decor and furnishings that reflect the history of the time. All this surrounded by a beautiful garden. Guests can not fail to relax due to the outstanding hospitality of the hosts,the attention to detail and the special touches that make guests feel special. As well as this the breakfast offerings are second to none served on the deck when possible overlooking Matauwhi bay.The location is excellent. A few minutes to Russell township by car or an easy ten minute walk. Restaurants,activities,shops,vineyards and beaches are all easily accessible if you can tear yourself away from the ambience of the lodge. A world class accomodation without the airfare!

Wonderful place to stay with amazing views

Just a short walk out of the centre of Russell, the Arcadia Lodge was a great place to stay. Both Peter and Greg were amazing hosts, offered us loads of great information about the area and their restaurant recommendations were fantastic. The rooms were spacious and the breakfasts were excellent, all served on a wonderful terrace overlooking the small bay. Highly recommended.

There was nothing to dislike about this property. Peter and Greg are excellent hosts, location was perfect - lovely views and easy walk into town. Greg's suggestions for restaurants were bang on and he made booking any excursion a non-event.

Greg and Peter are excellent hosts providing first class hospitality. Arcadia Lodge is a great place to stay, a short walk from the Russell ferry, restaurants and attractions of the village. The bay views from the deck are stunning. The breakfasts provided are first class!

What a fabulous experience. Greg and Peter are wonderful hosts and their Lodge is just so dreamy. We enjoyed all the lovely touches and the breakfasts were just so lovely. It is a lovely walk into town and the views from the lodge is incredible. Thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Greg and Peter, getting the lowdown on Russell but also just to be able to chat and share our love of Boxer dogs. Thank you Greg and Peter, we will definitely be back!

There is nothing not to like. Hosts are wonderfully helpful and welcoming. Home is in a great location with unbelievable views. Bed was incredibly comfortable. Peter’s breakfasts (We enjoyed three of them.) were unique, creative but not too avant- gard that reasonable people would not love them. Russell is fantastic with great hiking.

True gem

Such a lovely place! Greg and Peter are delightful hosts, they made us feel at home and warmly welcome. The rooms and the house in general are beautifully decorated and the garden is done with so much love and dedication. Definitely worth a couple of nights stay!

Our stay at Arcadia lodge was wonderful. The hosts treated us from the moment we arrived, from helping us find our way around to booking dinner for us in town ... they even helped us sort out a minor issue with our hire car. Peter's breakfasts were absolutely amazing. The house is gorgeous and full of character, very close to Russell and tranquil amongst the bay. A perfect place to chill and relax.
Thank you Greg and Peter for the amazing stay!

Best place to stay in Russell

We completed a recent trip to New Zealand in Russell staying at the Arcadia Lodge. It was the perfect ending to a great trip.

The location is great; beautiful views of a small bay, quick walk to town, beautiful grounds, and comfortable beds.

Inn Keepers Greg and Peter were very attentive and helpful. The breakfasts were amazing. Will definitely stay again!

From the moment we arrived everything was more than we had expected:
the view, the friendly hosts, great breakfast using local fresh produce and the homestead itself.
The hosts have great local knowledge and went out of their way to ensure our days were full of options suited to our interests.

Amazing B&B in Russell

Very nicely renovated villa. Peter and Greg were amazing hosts and the breakfast was better than anything in town. We are going back at the end of the year.

Wonderful retreat overlooking the harbour.

It was a great experience staying at Arcadia. The views from our bedroom were marvellous. The house and gardens are maintained meticulously and it was a delight. Our hosts were very friendly and useful and cooked a delicious breakfast. I would highly recommend staying here. Elderly people should request a downstairs room.
