Set among rolling countryside just minutes from Gisborne, Naurea Homestead offers an exclusive-use boutique stay in a beautifully restored historic homestead.
Designed for small groups and special gatherings, this rural retreat blends timeless character with relaxed comfort. Eight spacious bedrooms, wraparound verandahs and generous living areas create plenty of space to unwind, while sweeping views across Tairāwhiti set the scene for a truly memorable stay.
Guests can enjoy a fully hosted experience with fresh, locally sourced meals, or opt for a self-catering stay with full use of the homestead. Spend your days exploring nearby wineries, Eastwoodhill Arboretum, Rere Rockslide and Waterfall, Gisborne Astro Tours, then return for a swim in the saltwater pool, a drink on the verandah, or a long evening shared over local food and wine.
Whether you’re planning a group getaway, celebration or peaceful escape, Naurea Homestead offers a private, welcoming base to experience the best of the Tairāwhiti region.
