Spacious, well equipped and comfortable, Rua Awa Lodge is set in an exquisite country setting, with beautiful bush walking tracks down to the Whanganui River.

“This place is a gem.
I have reviewed hotels for 20 years, never did I find more gracious hosts or a more charming accommodation. All accommodations reflect the souls of the proprietors, and these two are among the more engaging folks I have met in a country that sets a high standard for service and charm.”
