Mt Potts Lodge
Mt Somers & High Country, Canterbury
About
In 1964 the original Mt Potts homestead, shearers’ quarters and wool-shed were converted into an accommodation, events and function venue. Today, Mt Potts Lodge is Canterbury’s most remote lodge-style accommodation on a working high country station, nestled in the heart of the harsh and hauntingly beautiful Southern Alps.
The lodge is sited in the world-famous Ashburton Lakes District – an outdoor recreational playground offering fishing, kayaking, ice skating, 4W driving, horse riding, tramping, climbing, photography, bird watching and more. Bordering the Main Divide and Mt Cook National Park, the Hakatere Conservation Park is world-renowned for alpine game hunting, and the nearby headwaters of the mighty Rangitata River is famous for salmon and rainbow trout fishing.
There are a range of accommodation options available, a bar and restaurant. Check our website for booking availability.
