Our experience in the dining room was the highlight of our stay here. I had a risotto which was the best I have ever eaten and I have travelled in Italy. The food was exceptional and a great selection of wines to choose from. Congratulations to the chefs. The service was also outstanding. When we came of the track we... More

We attended Furneaux Lodge for a wedding in March 2013. A big thank-you to the owners/management of Furneaux- they were a delight to deal with and made the stay a very pleasant one for all involved in the wedding.

Each couple had an excellent 2 bedroom Chalet - they were lovely and clean, well appointed, and just a stones throw from the waters edge. The evening meals were good - as was the coffee next morning. Seeing a stingray swimming around the... More

The food is very good and the staff are friendly. There was confusion at breakfast where orders were misplaced and service was slow particularly when we were eager to start hiking.... More
