DINING OPTIONS
Lansdowne House specialises in
local wines and provides a wide selection of beers, spirits and
after dinner liqueurs and ports, so guests can avail themselves of a
refreshing drink from the bar at anytime.
Enjoy
relaxing before the fire in winter
or sit outside on one of the comfortable reclining chairs and listen
to the birds in the trees.
Whilst a full English breakfast is
included in the room rate at Lansdowne House, we can also arrange an
'al fresco' lunch or we can make up a picnic hamper for you to
enjoy. A full evening meal is also available with pre dinner hors
d’oeuvres and traditional New Zealand fare.
Breakfast Options:
Enjoy breakfast with us in our classic Tudor dining room surrounded
by antique dressers and china. Dine on an 1850 mahogany table with
silver, fine china and crystal and glass condiment dishes or, if it
is a beautiful morning, you may prefer to dine 'al fresco' in our
brick courtyard beside the original icehouse amongst the roses and
the soothing trickle of a sparkling waterfall.
