"Flock Hill Station was founded in 1857, deep in the Southern Alps of New Zealand’s South Island," writes @mariashollenbarger. "This incredibly scenic, rugged part of the country has stood in for both Middle earth and Narnia on the big screen, and it’s easy to understand why; no need to blur out traces of modern civilisation in post-production, when there are hardly any, amid the 36,000 acres of massifs and river beds and miles of wild pasture. Next month the station’s owners will begin welcoming guests to The Flockhill Homestead, a new four-bedroom, glass-and-timber lodge that’s deep in the station’s empty part, a 30-minute drive from the TranzAlpine route – already one of the country’s most remote roads".
