A stay at Dingleburn offers the chance to immerse yourself fully in the extraordinary life on this farm, tucked discreetly into the mountains, at the head of Lake Hāwea.

The adventure starts from the moment you begin the journey to Dingleburn. The shear drops and rocky outcrops are exhilarating whether by road or air. The unfolding heroic mountains, belie the calm, lush landscapes that make up the heart of the farm.

Your hosts are warm, generous and grounded. The accommodations offer everything you need to relax in your setting as you watch the working farm in action or the light play on the mountains with the setting sun. Meals come by honestly - hearty, rich and of this land. The conversation is the same.

Renovated, rural charm – our accommodation options change with the seasons.
Off Season: October to December. During this time, all stays are self-hosted.
Hosted Season: January to May. During this time, guests are fully hosted on-site and catered for.

You get to choose your level of involvement - be part of the crew or head off for a guided fishing trip. Explore the surrounding hills or soak in the realness of crew chat at smoko. This is your adventure, on our farm, in our part of the world.

We provide the landscape, the location and the opportunity for experience. The rest is up to you. Immerse yourself in our world.
