Te Mata Lodge is set in a hidden valley. There are over 10 acres of private walks, grassy lawns, gardens and native bush. The Te Mata Creek borders the property and provides opportunities for swimming and kayaking, gemstone gathering, gold panning and riverwalking. BBQs, picnic areas and benches are situated under the trees along the river for meals, a quiet cup of tea, shared bottle of wine or peaceful contemplation. The abundance of native bush and birds make for idyllic peacefulness.
