Pen-y-bryn Lodge owners James Boussy (left) and James Glucksman are asking New Zealand travellers to name their own price to stay at the luxury lodge. Co-owner James Glucksman said in the six weeks since the pay-what-you-like promotion began on May 18, things had gone “better than expected”. Potential guests had been offered the opportunity to suggest the price they were willing to pay to stay in the sumptuous surroundings. “We’ve had a lot of inquiries, and with very, very few exceptions, the prices people have named have been reasonable. So that they get a bit of an opportunity to travel around, and we keep things interesting for ourselves.”- Ashley Smyth
