Fantastic place. Looks well maintained. But I don't think kiwis should have to pay to go inside!... we own it.
Picturesque and pleasant walk through time and history.
A treasure. Tour of the printing press, tannery, and house was brilliant thanks, Tracy. Wonderful to be introduced to this part of New Zealand history. Thoroughly recommend a visit.
Fascinating tour, excellent knowledgeable tour guide. Learnt heaps about printing, tanning and early Christianity in NZ. Also has lovely gardens and cafe.
Fantastic tour with friendly guide. Beautiful place, excellent gift shop and fantastic cafe!
Thoroughly enjoyed the well researched tour. Beautiful building in a gorgeous setting
Great place to go see, the lady that gave the tour was very informative and knew some pretty interesting historical facts. This should be on your to-do list when going to Russell.
Fascinating history. Amazing how many printing terms are now in common use in our every day language without us knowing it. Beautiful spot and Russell is a lovely town.
Amazing working museum. Excellent cafe with home baked pastries
We visited as a family, and came away feeling very informed and impressed. Our guide was first class, with a great sense of humour. Well worth a visit.
