.

The second largest private historic residence in New Zealand, this Victorian mansion is a glamorous trip back to an older time. Prepare to sit back and relax with stunning views of the more than 30 acres of pristine gardens surrounding the property, the most enchanting being a vibrant yellow daffodil garden. Spend your days wandering through the magical gardens and then enjoy the hotel's dinner, a sumptuous five-course degustation menu that changes daily.
