Caccia Birch House History Tour

Today's tour features the Woodhey room, which was the formal dining room and is named after Mrs Strang’s family home in Cheshire, England.

The Woodhey room continues in the beautiful style of the foyer, featuring spectacular rimu panelling and high ceiling.

The fireplace is intricately decorated with rimu panels and beautiful blue and white Willow tiles which draws the eye to the centrepiece of the room.

Today, the Woodhey is for conferences breakout space and event buffets as it connects to the rose garden and Lord Plunket room.
