Birds Ferry Lodge and Ferry Man's Cottage is Located mid-way between the south island glaciers and Nelson/Abel Tasman and Picton. It is the perfect spot to break your journey along the West Coast.

One of the more remote South Island Lodges but is still easily accessible by car. Only 2km from State Highway 6 and it is also convenient to Westport and Punakaiki.

Birds Ferry Lodge is seamlessly set upon a hilltop, where it sits content, quietly musing on the far-reaching, sea-lined views and acres of wild bush clad countryside. Here there is no TV, no landline and no clock… just a wealth of peace, seclusion and beauty.

Lodge guests enjoy a spacious guest lounge. Comfy leather upholstery and a roaring log fire in front of the huge windows where you can take in the view to the ocean and the Totara Valley below. Enjoy a welcome refreshment on arrival accompanied by some of Alison's home baking or a pre dinner aperitif from the house bar. Dinners are our specialty so be sure to book.

The library is stocked with a selection of magazines and books with something to interest most. There is also a supply of board games and puzzles for a day indoors.

The semi remote, rural location means that the wildlife is in abundance. The native Weka visits the garden and at night the call of the Kiwi has been heard from the Lodge. Wild deer have been spotted from the deck and whilst enjoying the spa after dark guests are kept company by our local Common Owl who rests on the back of the chair right beside them! Tui and Bell birds visit the well stocked bird table.

Guest accommodation is luxurious and private, designed with your comfort in mind. Enjoy luxury bed and breakfast accommodation with the option of enjoying fine food and wines at dinner, in a relaxed and informal atmosphere.

We are delighted to welcome Coastal Beauty Therapy to Birds Ferry Lodge. Guests can now enjoy a wide range of Beauty Treatments during their stay with us. After a holistic massage, soak in the Spa overlooking the ocean before enjoying fireside fine dining.
