This is a great place showcasing the history of one influential family in Auckland's history. It show's how these pioneers of New Zealand lived with many fantastic displays and alot of the original furniture. Definitely bring your camera as there are many beautiful photo's you can take and you really feel the atmosphere of the Kerr-Taylor family that lived here... More
