The Ghost Lodge offers stunning seaside accommodation in Granity, an historic mining town 28kms north of Westport and 25kms from the beginning of the Old Ghost Road mountain biking and tramping trail. The Ghost Lodge is perfectly located for adventures in the wilderness of Northern Buller, an area steeped in history. Drive 20 minutes to the beginning of The Old Ghost Road; 5 minutes drive to Charming Creek Walkway; 20 minutes drive to the Denniston Plateau for mountain bike tracks, walks and The Denniston Experience (historic coal mine train trip); 65 kms north to Karamea (where you'll find the Heaphy Track, the Wangapeka Track and the Oparara Basin with spectacular caves and limestone arches). The Ghost Lodge began its life as a butchery, built in the 1880's, and has been painstakingly rebuilt with care taken to retain its original charm whilst modernising every aspect of this beautiful six bedroom building. It's warm and cosy, insulated and carpeted throughout with a huge log fire providing heat upstairs and downstairs. It's perfect for large groups, families or individuals. We have off street parking, beach access, free wetsuits, boogie boards and surf boards.
