Hidden Lake Hotel’s central dining, lounge and bar takes its name from Glenda’s Uncle D’Arcy, whose lifelong passion for growing plants organically with his own compost is well known in the Cambridge district. D’Arcy didn’t sell any of the flowers, fruits and vegetables he produced in his gardens, preferring to give it away to friends and neighbours. He liked to know exactly where his food was coming from and we plan to carry on this tradition by sourcing produce from D’Arcy’s garden, adding to his compost and filling any gaps with other local suppliers in the region, including the Waikato Farmers Market.

Look out for Waikato cheeses, local wines, Monavale blueberries and seasonal farm produce on the hotel’s dining and catering menus.

The scenic lounge is the heart of the hotel. It offers all day comfort and is the perfect place for some alone time, group cocktails at the bar, or conversation around the fireplace, another tribute to D’Arcy who at one time was employed by the Invercargill Railway Station to keep the waiting room fire stoked. D’Arcy loved providing this comfort in the cold climate, a gesture we intend to honour.
