Come along and experience the beautiful handcrafted rimu timber paneling and elegant chandeliers along with the extensive history of the property.
Explore the house and gardens, learn about the past owners and how the house was rescued from dereliction and destruction in the eighties by PNCC and many supporters. Then brought back to life in the nineties to become a thriving venue with stories of the past to tell.
The Coach House will be open, displaying the history archives throughout the old stables.
Bring the whole family, relax on the lawn with a picnic and enjoy the summer sunshine and gorgeous array of plants and flowers in our gardens.
This is also a good time to view the venue if you are planning on holding a wedding or function. Feel free to approach our friendly staff for a chat or pick up one of the brochures from the foyer that contain all information on making a booking.
Extensive care has been put into the preservation of the buildings - so we love to share the experience of yesteryear with visitors.
We are open to the public and entry is free! See you there!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
