Story

Larnach Castle, Dunedin, Neuseeland, ist eine Industriellenvilla aus der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Die Villa, die von Neuseeländern gerne als das einzige castle Neuseelands bezeichnet wird, liegt ca. 15 km vom Stadtzentrum Dunedins entfernt auf einem der Hügel der Otago Peninsula, mit einem faszinierenden Rundumblick über Otago Harbour, den Pazifischen Ozean und die Halbinsel selbst.
Larnach Castle, benannt nach seinem Besitzer William Larnach, Bankier, Geschäftsmann und Politiker, wurde von 1871 an in dreijähriger Bauzeit von dem neuseeländischen Architekten Robert Lawson erbaut und von Larnachs Familie 1874 bezogen.
Nach Fertigstellung der Villa rühmte man das Bauwerk als eines der elegantesten und beeindruckendsten Privathäuser Neuseelands. Die Architektur von Larnach Castle wird gelegentlich dem schottischen Baronialstil zugeordnet. Das trifft aber nicht ganz zu, denn die Villa mit der Kombination aus einem an einen gotischen Wohnturm erinnernden Mittelteil und den beiderseits davon befindlichen verglasten Veranden mit gusseisernen Trägern ist ein typisches Bauwerk der viktorianischen Zeit.

Incredible place..highly recommend the dining experience and nature trail. What a welcome. Congratulations to the family their warm hospitality is genuine ..
Stayed in the stables on site and had a great 4 course meal in the castle. Breakfast was incredible a must do. Great people working there
The guide book they gave us is so details and nice, the castle itself is amazing and a lot to explore in there. Walk through the whole castle is fantastic
A wonderful stay, enjoyed the history, culture, gardens and the opportunity to dine in the castle. Stunning views added to a unique experience
The castle and gardens are beautiful. The trip up the peninsula is well worth it. There are fantastic views of the harbour everywhere you look. We also enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea while there. The staff were all friendly and helpful too.
Enjoyable visit to Larnach Castle. We used a two for one entry voucher to both the gardens and the building. Learning about the history of the building was really interesting and the surrounding gardens are well maintained.
Great place. We had the whole experience including a 4 course dinner, which was delicious. The castle and gardens are well worth a visit.
Most fantastic Gardens. And the Irish Gardener had lots of amazing plants for sale
The castle and the garden are both absolutely beautiful. We celebrated our garden club's 40th birthday with a talk by Margaret Barker, a walk round the garden and a delicious hi tea in the ballroom. It could not have been better.
