The Homestead

The heady scent of woodland gardens greets you as you make your way beneath towering Oaks, Chestnuts, Larches, Redwoods and Cedars and emerge from the dappled shadows to an inviting vista of this gracious historic country homestead.

On entering you are immediately aware of the welcoming atmosphere as you are drawn into another era. Large airy rooms, polished wooden floors, open fires and wood panelling all add to the 1920's character.

For those who are searching for a quiet retreat far from the pressures of city life, Okuku offers a relaxed, comfortable yet uniquely gracious style of accommodation.

Superbly furnished – classical elegance

Experience the ambience of beautiful furniture, fine china, interesting artworks and a 30-year old collection of antiques as you relax in informal comfort with your hosts.

Guest bedrooms – superb comfort

Upstairs are five tastefully furnished en-suited bedrooms all individually decorated and named, offering king or queen beds, fine linen, bathrobes and toiletries to enhance your stay. Each room has its own picturesque view of the Estate grounds. There is also one downstairs bedroom with a view over the roses.

Guest lounges – pure relaxation

The lounge room is paneled in a golden Canadian hardwood and has arched French doors opening onto the terrace.
