Welcome to the 540 lodge

We purchased the property two years ago with the dream of escaping the everyday hustle and bustle for the tranquility of the Wairarapa—and we wanted to share this treasure with like minded guests. The property is absolute magic from the moment you enter the bush clad driveway until you wander through the tranquil and peaceful surroundings. We know for you, like us, it will not take long to fall in love.

Complementing the natural beauty of the exterior is a cozy and eclectic interior filled with treasured art and objects gathered both locally and from around the world.

We love entertaining and meeting new guests. On most days you are likely to find us either tending to the garden or working in our onsite hair salon.

We hope you will join us in this special place and indulge in the wonders of The 540 for yourself.
