REVIEWS FOR BELLROCK LODGE

Excellent

Reviewed February 2024

Excellent place to stay - the location, the views, all the little thoughtful details of everything you need and also stuff that made one’s stay even more pleasant (mosquito spray, milk in the fridge for coffee). The hosts were so friendly and helpful too. Can’t recommend this place enough. The room was also so cozy and comfortable- and the balcony a delight! I definitely be back to stay again.

Very attractive and efficient studio space with fantastic deck and views. Loved being above the town for the views, but only a five-minute walk to restaurants and the waterfront. Huge, gorgeous bathroom and comfy bed.

Highly recommend this lodge for a quiet and comfortable stay in Russell. We booked two rooms in this lovely quiet area. The studios are very spacious, clean and comfortable and contain a kitchenette. Both rooms had a private balcony and beautiful views over Russell and the bay. The lodge is just a short walk to the waterfront and restaurants. Owner Catherine was very pleasant and helpful.

Love Bellrock Lodge well thought out, spotless and views 'to die for'. Lovely people- and a short walk (downhill) to Russell which is a sweet little place. I could happily up sticks.

Treat yourself... stay here!

Fantastic stay! The room is Comfortable in every way. The bed was among the best we've had in 115 days of travel. The view is such a treat. And the town of Russell is exceptional. We were sorry to only have one night. Would have preferred to stay longer rather than be passing through.

Good quality room in excellent location

Reviewed February 2024

Great location, just up the hill from Russell town centre. Good views from balcony over the Bay. Spacious room, good quality products provided, comfortable bed. Separate laundry available for 5NZD. Friendly welcome from Catherine and Stuart. Rooms not serviced daily, but that suited us, and items were provided immediately on request.

One of the gems of the North

Reviewed November 2023

The property overlooks the little village and our room had water views as well. It is secluded and quiet and an easy stroll into the village. The room was spacious and decorated and fitted to a very high standard The shower pressure was amazing and plenty of hot water. The bathroom had double basins and a bidet along with heated towel racks. There was a kitchenette that provided ample options for staying in and cooking along with a draw dishwasher. The Nespresso machine was appreciated. We loved the fact that there were comfortable lounge chairs as well as a veranda with table and chairs. The king size bed was extremely comfortable as were the pillows. We would love to stay longer next time as 2 nights was not enough.
These are passionate hosts who know how to run an establishment.
From our many trips to both Islands from across the ditch this establishment is up there with the best!

Thank you very much for having us at your place. The room was so clean and comfortable, and you were very kind that we could feel safe and relaxed. Also, your wi-fi connection was perfect that made me easy to work online with Japan for seven hours, two days 

running. We would stay again if we have chance to visit Bay of Islands"
