Braemar B&B in Auckland is Heritage With Flair

Auckland New Zealand Accommodation is Door to Awesome Adventures…
From “City of Sails” Yachting to Heritage Festivals

Braemar House lounge

Braemar on Parliament Street is one of Auckland’s finest B&B inns, long established, award-winning, and very gay welcoming.

Each September during the Heritage Festival, Braemar House gets a fabulous response to its popular “Afternoon Tea and Tour of a late Victorian Townhouse” where they celebrate the tradition of taking time to sit and take tea with friends. All of the food served is based on traditional New Zealand recipes from the iconic Edmonds Cookery Book and the serving dishes themseves are traditional bone china cake and sandwich plates you would have expected to see in your grandmother’s house.

The afternoon includes a tour of the house and a talk about the history of the area. The early settlers called this part of Auckland “Official Bay” because it was colonised by Government Officials, the Governor himself living in the big house at the end of the street. The photographs and prints on the walls give an insight into what Auckland was like during the late 1800s.
