Jazz & Ryan
Nestled amid native bush, this luxury lodge offers an idyllic retreat. A freshwater stream meanders through the property. This haven of tranquility is just a ten-minute drive from the CBD of Palmerston North, ten minutes to the Manawatu Gorge Track and 20 minutes to Arapuke Mountain Bike Park. The lodge accommodates up to six guests across its three suites. The dining room seats 26 guests and has stunning views of the natural surroundings. The property boasts a glass-walled wine cellar and a 19-seated cinema. There is lots of secure parking. The award-winning chef ensures an exquisite dining experience for those passionate about food. You can add on a private dinner experience with your booking.
With hosts on-site to promptly address your needs, interaction is at your discretion—whether you seek local tips, engaging conversation, or privacy. Choose company or solitude, the hosts will ensure your stay is memorable and relaxing. Ryan, our resident chef, has over 16 years of experience in the industry. He ran his own restaurant in the CBD of Palmerston North for the past 13 years before exiting early 2024. With a deep passion for food, Ryan is eager to curate a culinary experience in a non-traditional format. Jazz has spent 15 years in marketing and has been instrumental in growing the business she co-founded across New Zealand. A lover of organising and coordinating, she’s always ready to pitch in wherever needed—most frequently found in the sink, tackling a mountain of dishes.
