A Private Retreat of Modern Space and Design | House in Alexandra

D&D Lodge is a private architectural retreat set amongst the dramatic landscapes of Central Otago, designed for guests seeking space, privacy, and quiet luxury.
Built in 2025 and designed by New Zealand architect Regan Johnston, the Lodge is intentionally understated, allowing the surrounding landscape to take centre stage. Natural textures, premium materials, and bespoke finishes create a warm, elegant atmosphere throughout, with beautifully crafted cedar gallery walls subtly framing curated artworks and expansive mountain views.
From its elevated position on Earnscleugh Ridge, large windows capture sweeping outlooks across the Old Man, Cairnmuir, Dunstan, and Hawkdun Ranges. Seasonal light transforms the Lodge throughout the day, while indoor and outdoor fires provide comfort year-round, from long golden summer evenings to crisp winter days beneath snow-dusted peaks.
The Lodge offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a master bedroom with ensuite and a shared bathroom. Thoughtful layout, automated blackout blinds, and discreet modern amenities ensure comfort without detracting from the calm and simplicity of the space.
Set on a large rural property, guests have exclusive use of the Lodge and access to private walking tracks with historic gold-mining features woven through the landscape. Despite its peaceful setting, D&D Lodge is just minutes from Alexandra and Clyde, with easy access to Central Otago’s vineyards, cycling trails, rivers, and outdoor pursuits.
D&D Lodge is designed as a quiet, private retreat and is best suited to couples, families, and discerning travellers seeking stillness, privacy, and a refined connection to place. No parties, events, or pets are permitted.
To preserve the Lodge and its unique environment, we kindly ask that you:
• Quiet hours are 10:00pm – 7:00am
• Respect the home, furnishings, and surrounding landscape
• Remain on walking tracks for safety reasons
• Do not disturb historic gold-mining features
• Do not remove rocks, plants, or artefacts from the property
• Dispose of rubbish (red bin), glass (blue bin) and recycling (yellow bin) responsibly
• Refrain from smoking or vaping inside the Lodge
• Do not bring pets to the Lodge
• Please remember to turn off both Heat Pump / AC units when you check out
• Please remove shoes when entering Lodge as dirt and gravel on shoes can damage the floors.
Thank you – we appreciate you helping us keep D&D Lodge a special place to stay.
