Everything about Ormlie Lodge is theatrical. Driving up the palm fringed driveway we were greeted by opera lilting through open doorway into the gardens! To the right, pure white doves fluttered around the dove cote. We smiled broadly. Entering the hallway we pressed the bell and were greeted by Andrew who showed us to our room. As the lodge was...

We bought a grab one voucher for lunch here on Mother's day. Great promotion idea but they seem very unorganised. We arrived and waited in the foyer for someone to notice us (we did ring the bell!). When someone finally came, they made us wait in the foyer while they went away to another room to check our vouchers before... More

This was our 1st visit to Ormlie Lodge, although it is autumn and we approached in the dark our initial feeling was good. We had a meal booked in the restaurant and so we bought a drink at the bar until the time of our meal, no one seemed interested in our booking as there was a wedding taking place... More

Our daughters wedding was held at Ormlie Lodge in the weekend. It was an excellent venue with great food and service which made it an occasion to remember. Thanks to John and his team. More

We have just returned from a wonderful night at Ormlie Lodge. The decor, hospitality and food was absolutely great. We stayed in the Gertrude Mary Suite which we certainly enjoyed, on the corner so dual aspect, but all the rooms (having poked our noses into every one) are stunning. Dinner was a gastronic delight. Having read some of the previous... More

My partner and I stayed one night (Sunday/Monday) at Ormlie Lodge as we had a voucher to redeem. After looking at the website I had quite some expectations. When we arrived in the afternoon we were greeted by two giant but friendly dogs (Ruby and her son George) and the cleaning lady who told us that she couldnt help us... More

This place is the bomb... Tucked away in 2 minutes out of Taradale this is the Garden of Eden... The whole package was out of this world. If you haven't been there you need to go there even if only for a meal but I would recommend you stay the night as well. The staff were the best... Especially Mark... More

Elegant with a touch of class.... just loved the decor and style. A well-loved colonial home with friendly staff. The dinner was superb! Breakfast would have been as excellent as the dinner had there been hot food on offer as well as the cereals, toast and fruit - nothing like bacon, eggs, etc. Definitely worth more than one visit though!

Stayed here on our road trip around the North Island. The house is beautiful and the fittings are superb. I wanted to show my sister a colonial house and it certainly is lovely. We had trouble getting confirmation of the booking and then when we turned up they were not expecting us, took ages to get a menu for dinner... More
