Kaingahou Estate

About

Kaingahou is a historic homestead in the central North Island of New Zealand. Set in an acre of established garden, with trees on the property that are as old as the house, Kaingahou offers guests a truly unique accommodation experience.

Story

"Kaingahou" is a Maori word that translates to "New Home" (kainga means 'home' and hou means 'new'). The name was chosen by the first owner of the property. Ditlev Gothardt Monrad, who was the grandson of Bishop DG Monarad, a significant figure in the history of Denmark and the Manawatu district. Ditlev was forced to sell the family farm due to old health and built Kaingahou for his wife and family in 1903/04.

Beautifully persevered, the villa is constructed entirely of New Zealand native timbers, a mixture of totara, rimu and matai. The property which is registered as a Category II historic home with the NZ Historic Place Trust.
