Mataia Homestead is the heart of the Gardner family who have been associated with the area for over 150 years. Both the homestead and the Farm Cottage contain many family mementos and items of historical value. We kindly request that guests honour the trust of the Gardner family and respect the homestead and property. To this end, we ask that no parties be held on the premises without prior arrangement.
