Larnach Castle & Gardens
Larnach Castle is located on the spectacular Otago Peninsula, a 20-minute drive from central Dunedin (please note there is no public transport to the Castle). You may use your entry ticket any time during opening hours. On arrival, simply stop at the Gatehouse to present your voucher. Allow at least two hours to explore the Castle and gardens, however, many guests spend longer than this. Our onsite Ballroom Café is open daily from 9.30am to 4.30pm, serving hot and cold drinks, a delicious range of cabinet food and a full cooked menu (closed Christmas Day). Guided Tours are also available daily at additional cost – enquire at the gatehouse about upgrading to this option. Larnach Castle is open 365 days a year. We look forward to welcoming you to enjoy this truly unforgettable experience.

We booked a guided tour and Christine was our lovely host. Met us at the front door dressed smartly in her kilt and gave us a very knowledgeable and detailed tour of the castle. It was a cool autumn day and not very busy so we were pleased to be her exclusive guests. Well worth a visit when in Dunedin, and worth paying for the detailed guided tour.

Enjoyed this very much. Great getting it cheaper through TripAdvisor- otherwise quite expensive at the gate.

I paid for the one hour tour of the Castle and it was worth every cent. The history was fascinating and although the delivery by the hostess was quite ‘dry’, the information added so much to understanding the history and ensuing tragedies 🫢 Highly recommend this visit if visit Dunedin - you won’t regret it.

Gorgeous castle and grounds. The gardens were exquisite. The castle itself is furnished opulently and the renovations are majestic!

The sort of castle you could live in, rooms not too large, and fabulous gardens. We had a guided tour which, although full of interesting facts and history, prevented us from exploring by ourselves and taking in the views to a full extent. It's easy to catch up on all this online these days and spend precious time outside if the weather is good. There is an excellent cafe but we didn't have time to sample the produce.

Such an unusual find in New Zealand. The castle has been beautifully restored. The gardens are beautiful. Lovely tea shop we had mushroom soup and crusty bread 🤤

The castle and gardens are well kept and the views are lovely. Inside the castle it is just beautiful and it keeps to the time period. I really appreciated the care being made to maintain and restore its character. Thank you, I joyed our visit.
