Great part of New Zealand history. Gift shop, cafe and guided site tours. The cafe here offers freshly baked croissants and pastries a must to visit in Russell.

I really enjoyed the tour through Pompallier House and learnt a lot about the history of Russell. Their gardens are lovely and afterwards there is the gift shop and also a Cafe. They serve up good coffee and their pastries are just the best! Beautiful setting and the views are awesome!
