From the owner

Tulloch Manor, built into the hillside in 1983, is a 3 level, New Zealand award winning Architecturally Designed Tudor home. It has also featured in the NZ Home & Garden Magazine. It's unique, light and spacious design features - heavy rafters above the raised sitting room area, spiral staircase and arched doorways. The heavy wooden doors and slate floor, overlooked by a large gilt mirror makes for a dramatic entrance hall. A low octagonal ceiling in the main turret creates an intimate atmosphere for diners at the mahogany table. On the very edge of the city, but only 5 minutes drive to the city centre, its private north facing position overlooks rural countryside. With its peaceful, quiet surroundings you start relaxing as soon as you walk through the door. If you're sitting out on the deck you can hear a multitude of birds singing and see the Tui's, Bell Birds, Warblers, Kingfishers, Wax Eyes, Wood Pigeons and Fantails - to name just a few - feeding at the bird table or on the many native trees and bushes around the house. After sunset be serenaded by a Morepork (NZ Owl) family and after sunrise hear our resident Ring Necked Pheasants calling out for their breakfast.

    House rules

    As this is a Bed & Breakfast and our family live in the home, the kitchen, family room, laundry, 1 downstairs bedroom and 3rd (top) floor are our PRIVATE area, unless guests are invited in to join us.
    There is to be no cooking in the guest accommodation areas; or eating and drinking in the Executive lounge upstairs or bedrooms.
    We would appreciate no loud parties as this is a working household, with a school aged teenager and also a very quiet neighbourhood.
