Whether it’s glamping, camping, or a luxurious historic stay you’re after, in Waitaki you’re spoilt for choice.

Head up the Waitaki Valley and stay the night at a unique glamping experience. Wake up in a treehouse, a dome, or a lakeside chalet, before enjoying a morning brew at a local cafe. If a tent and a roll-out bed are all you require, set up camp around the Waitaki Lakes.

For a more historic touch, spend a night in Ōamaru’s first stone dwelling, Casa Nova House or if you prefer a grander scale, consider Pen-y-bryn Lodge – a Victorian-era masterpiece that has been meticulously preserved.

Whether you’re drawn to the rustic appeal of camping or the refined elegance of historic accommodations, Waitaki has something for every type of wanderer.
