While
in Wanganui
the river city of New Zealand…
Relax
at Arlesford House, a Stately Country Home set within six acres
of tranquil park-like grounds, yet only eight minutes from the heart
of Wanganui.
Enjoy
superior hospitality, luxury accommodation and excellent facilities.
Arlesford
House was designed by prominent Wanganui architect Bob Talboys and
built by Joseph Gopperth in 1934. This elegant country home is made
almost entirely of native heart rimu timber.
Today
you will find Arlesford House classically decorated and timelessly
furnished, offering guests a rare mix of both tradition and luxury.
This
two-storey Georgian-style homestead now offers accommodation comprising
four guestrooms, each with its own bathroom and rural or garden
views. Open fires warm the lounge and drawing room with an adjacent
sunroom. A leisurely breakfast is served downstairs in the dining
room or alfresco beside the swimming pool in the park-like gardens.
There is a new three-bedroom, two-bathroom self-contained cottage
available on site.
