Ewelme Cottage, Auckland

Ewelme Cottage was built for the Reverend Vicesimus Lush and his wife in 1863-1864. This delightfully quaint cottage remains largely as it was over a century ago and is crammed with interesting family furniture, books and household items. Of particular interest is the original kitchen equipment. The steep stairs up to the little attic rooms are an experience in themselves! The garden is carefully maintained in the cottage style with original plantings, and a huge oak dating from 1866. Ewelme Cottage is available for cocktail and garden parties and garden weddings for up to 40 guests.
