Te Waimate Mission is a two-storey building, with steps for entry, however a mobility ramp is available, just let our staff know you require it. The second floor and basement may not be suitable for people with mobility issues due to the steep angle of the stairs between floors.

Please note wheelchair users may find it difficult to navigate within the house due to the width of the doorframes and narrow passages. If you find this to be the case, our visitor hosts can share the history of our site with you from under the shade of the historic trees in our grounds or the comfort of the veranda.

Established as a model farming village, complete with a flour mill, blacksmiths, printery, carpenter’s shop, school and church, Te Waimate Mission was the fullest realisation of Samuel Marsden’s belief that spiritual and practical instruction should be combined as a one-two punch.

Aotearoa New Zealand’s second oldest surviving building is an elegant two-storeyed affair, with wide verandahs and a low-pitched hipped roof, complemented by Georgian-style dormer windows.

It also houses an impressive collection. You’ll see period furniture and a range of original agricultural and carpentry tools, what’s left of the country’s first water-powered flour mill and relics from Bedggood’s Blacksmiths Shop.
