OTAHUNA LODGE, NEW ZEALAND (ABOVE)

A Victorian homestead built at the end of the 19th century: check. Twelve hectares of botanic gardens: check. A setting between the South Island’s Banks Peninsula and Southern Alps: tick. Otahuna Lodge is the quintessential New Zealand country house, dedicated to the man it was built for, Sir Heaton Rhodes, a pioneer of the region of Canterbury (the lodge is just 20 minutes from Christchurch). Sir Heaton loved the finer things in life, which is probably why there’s a range of helicopter itineraries departing right from Otahuna’s own lawn. otahuna.co.nz

Otahuna Lodge完美體現紐西蘭別墅的精髓。這座建於19世紀末的維多利亞風格大宅，坐擁佔地達12公頃的植物園，可俯瞰南島班克斯半島和南阿爾卑斯山脈的迷人景致。別墅是為坎特伯雷區的開拓者Heaton Rhodes爵士而建，距離基督城僅20分鐘路程。爵士熱愛奢華生活，難怪別墅草坪上有多架直升機升降，載著住客展開豪華之旅。otahuna.co.nz
