Endeavour House is on Endeavour Street which, like other Tolaga Bay streets,
is named after one of Captain Cook's ships. Some others carry the names of
crew.

Services
are still held monthly in the historic Anglican Church opposite Endeavour
House. |
 |
The
villa, which is the most striking residence in the town, was built for the
Town Clerk in the 1920s when Tolaga Bay was a much busier place as the
export point for wool from a rich farming hinterland.
|
 |
There
are two double bedrooms each with a queen size bed |
 |
|
The
lounge has a Pacific theme and provides for relaxation on three comfortable
couches. It is a quiet restful room away from the other living spaces. Good
TV reception is available on two of New Zealand’s four main channels. |
 |
The
bunkroom sleeps up to four children. The floors in this room are polished
heart rimu as they are throughout the house. |
 |
The
large dining room, which flows through to a well-appointed kitchen, seats
eight in comfort, but is intimate enough for a couple dining alone.
|
 |
A modern
tiled bathroom with built in cabinetry has been installed to match the
general high standard of the restored villa. |
