The Elms was the perfect wedding location for us! I was so impressed with Rose and her team, a special thanks should be mentioned to Bob for being super helpful on our big day. Rose was quick at communicating, friendly and very accommodating. The Elms will forever be a special place for us.

Took the opportunity to stop off (road trip) at the Elms on the way home to stretch our legs. Great value for money and the guide was very knowledgeable about the house and garden and the early history or 'modern' New Zealand. The garden is well maintained and we spent just as much time wandering around it as we did inside the house and library.

We popped into The Elms Te Papa Tauranga just a couple of days ago and had a lovely experience. As soon as you walk through the picket fence gate you're taken back to another time. Immaculate gardens and floral smells. We were greeted by Esther and the gardener, very nice and then given a tour from lovely Rose. The buildings are exceptional examples of historic buildings in Aotearoa New Zealand and we highly recommend coming and getting a tour. We then spent some time on a self-guided wonder. Really enough The Elms, highly recommend.

Beautiful gardens. Ray our guide was very informative and pleasant. Very interesting looking through the house and other buildings and hearing the history. Price was very reasonable. We visited on a very wet and windy day. We were provided with umbrellas.Wet or fine a must to see. Staff very friendly.

Wow! Such beautiful grounds with so much history, 3 delightful guides took me around, they were so enthusiastic and passionate about sharing the information about the Elms. And I did not know the first ever building in New Zealand of the library amazing! And listening to the guides I felt I had been transported back in time visualizing them walking around from the 1800's. So much to see so many interesting everyday items used that we dont need to use these days, that were so valuable back then, even common illnesses such as asthma which effected one of those living in this time died. Highly recommend to visit.

Only $ 10 entrance. Lovely staff. Have a nice guided tour. Interesting about settling, picture from the past . View from the garden on the dunes, beach and mountain. And now a days, harbour, ware houses etc. Remembers us that progress is not always for the best.
