Charlemagne Lodge is a taste of the past with all the conveniences of the present. The elegant Victorian house is a Bay of Plenty landmark building and is set on an elevated site overlooking the adjoining I’Anson nature reserve and lake.

The Bay of Plenty, renowned for its high sunshine hours, magnificent beaches and beautiful countryside. We are only two hours from Auckland, and forty-five minutes from the Maori heartland of Rotorua, making it a perfect touring base.

Conveniently located on State Highway 2, this gracious building is just 10 minutes from the centre of Tauranga with its fine bars and restaurants, and nestles between the vineyards of Mills Reef and Morton Estate.

Several golf courses are nearby and the unforgettable coastline and beautiful beaches are within easy reach, including the magnificent Mount Maunganui beach popular with sun worshippers and surfers.

The spectacular house with its many period features offers exceptional accommodation, and is the perfect backdrop for wedding photographs. An attractive function centre in the grounds, with its large patio and pond provides the ideal venue for any special occasion and can accommodate up to 120 guests.

The lodge offers luxury accommodation with a touch of romance, and we can guarantee a warm welcome and personal attention to all your requirements. We can attend to your dinner reservations, or book local attractions and activities while you unwind with a welcoming glass of wine in the beautiful turret room… or sit by the wishing well and feed Lucy, the resident hen.
