Property information

Bellrock Lodge is strategically placed half way up the hill giving it a commanding view overlooking the village of Russell and the bay. We are west facing, which give our guests the opportunity to enjoy pre dinner drinks on their private patio watching the most spectacular sunsets imaginable. A five minute stroll down to the village brings you to great restaurants, art studios, coffee and curio shops. The Russell wharf is where you will board one of the sight seeing boats or the passenger ferry to Paihia.
