Such a beautiful property- we especially loved our gourmet breakfast on the balcony overlooking the bay and being able to easily walk into town. Peter and Greg were very accommodating hosts - we so enjoyed our time in Russell.

Simone

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.

Spectacular
Greg and Peter were wonderful hosts. The room was extremely clean and a good size. The views of their garden and towards the bay were spectacular. Their breakfast was an absolute masterpiece - great choices, variety each day and so well served. We absolutely loved our stay and highly recommend them to anyone looking for special accommodation so close to Russell town centre.

Historical Bnb
Historic Bnb with multi level rooms. Hosts were gracious Would return with request of a main level room which had views. The attic room was with no view, low ceilings and slanted floors. Enjoyed Russell and it’s history.

Amazing Arcadia!
Arcadia Lodge is a very special place. The hosts, Greg and Peter, have lovingly crafted a nest of tranquility overlooking the water, on the edge of Russell. From the accommodation to the meals, to the caring from G and P, it was an idyllic stay.

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!
