BAR-EAUTIFUL Labella Kitchens manufactured and installed the stunning kitchen and downstairs bar. looks and attention to detail. “King has some clever designs in its products, like putting in extra hidden storage or wireless charging for devices. They also have a great range of fabrics at a good price point,” says Kath.

The bedrooms are the only rooms where white paint was used to create a backdrop of peaceful and quiet environments. The pair used earthy colours and themes of trees in the cushions, throws and bed covers. The ensuite is finished in black, at Nathan’s request, and macrocarpa was used for the vanity slabs.

“The Kaitiaki Lodge was built with love at its core. Everyone who has participated in the design and construction of this lodge was chosen for their passion and love of what they do,” says Nathan, owner of the lodge.

“I love that there are so many different spaces to enjoy here. At a recent dinner event, we had a guest resting in their room, another watching the rugby in the media room, someone cooking dinner in the kitchen and my partner and me on the deck next to the fireplace. Most guests comment that they fall in love with the house more and more as their stay goes on.”

This high-end home delivers on comfort, quality, detail and sophistication. It is this refined appearance that makes the design so appealing. It will surely create a unique experience for the guests who stay there.
