What you need to know
For occasions. and family parties
Our 1892 solid kauri homestead was an original homestead for the Munro family, who settled in Clevedon in the 1850s and owned the property until 1981. It is very special to us. It is furnished with a mixture of antiques and restored and upcycled furniture. We welcome respectful groups, especially families getting together for special occasions. We live next door, so protect our privacy and our property, Hololio House is not available for 21sts, hens and stag parties, and similar. If you are looking for a venue for such an event, and would like to book the house for accommodation (not the party), talk to us.
Our eco-efforts
We line dry our linen and towels, compost our food waste, and collect rainwater from our roofs. We hope you will support our efforts by reducing waste and recyling while you are with us. We are restoring a wetland just a few hundred metres from the house - a hand is always welcome! See our weddings section -our environmentally conscious guests have an option to forage for flowers and foliage here.
