Welcome to the historic Wallingford Homestead circa 1853 and Lodge, believed to be the largest single storey dwelling in the Southern Hemisphere.
Surrounded by large sweeping lawns, extensive gardens, English Oaks, and a sheep & beef cattle breeding station: this is a setting for complete privacy and relaxation, with comfort, charm, hospitality and style. The Homestead is warm and inviting: a place to enjoy large log fires in winter and poolside barbeques in summer.
Wallingford is the ideal venue for weddings, conferences, corporate functions, family reunions, special birthday parties, golf groups or any special occasion be it corporate or personal.
Our living areas cater comfortably for groups of 70 or more: guests can enjoy exclusive use of the house and surrounds during their stay.
Everything is taken care of once you arrive, from stunning cuisine by our oein house cordon bleu Chef, (holder of the NZ Beef and Lamb hallmark of excellence award for 2008 & 2009) to fine wines from our cellar, and a wide range of outdoor activities.
Whatever you need it to be we will make sure your stay at Wallingford is wonderfully memorable.

Warm and inviting! Jen was a fabulous host. The food was amazing and the room we were in was impeccably decorated and comfortable. If you're wanting a romantic, private getaway this is the place to go! Thank-you Jen for such a fantastic time. We'll surely be back next year.
