Beluga Fine Accommodation, Methven

Beluga offers you the choice of a stylish Bed and Breakfast, the secluded luxury of the Garden Suite or the independence of the delightfully restored Minke House. All set in an exquisite garden, enthusiastically created by Beluga’s owner Di Harris.

The Mt Hutt Ski Area is only 20 minutes drive away, offering some of the best and most consistent snow conditions in the southern hemisphere. Trout and Salmon fishing in the area is suburb and the scenery amazing.
