Commanding a magnificent position with sweeping water views over tranquil Matauwhi Bay, Arcadia Lodge is a Russell landmark, a turn of the century home and bed and breakfast. For many of our guests one of their greatest pleasures is simply to sit and drink in the 180 degree views of water, bush and yachts.  Breakfast included.

By ferry from Paihia. The ferry is a shuttle which runs continuously from 6.50am-10pm and costs about $19 return for a car and 2 people. Drive off the ferry and follow the main road for about 8kms until you enter the outskirts of Russell. You'll come down into Matauwhi Bay - the road is flat for 100 metres or so then curves round a bend where you'll see Arcadia on the hill on the right.
