About this property
THE BARRACKS – THE OLD MT COOK POLICE STATION Pet friendly, free parking 4 cars
The Barracks are located just a few minutes away from some of the best cafes, bars and venues in Wellington, not to mention the Basin Reserve and Oriental Beach. It faces right out on to our wonderful Pukeahu War Memorial Park, so wander around and soak up the history and atmosphere of this part of the city. Public transport stops just outside our doors, making for easy getting around town. The Barracks has been lovingly renovated and seismically upgraded to provide comfort and easy living for your stay. Make yourself at home and enjoy some of the things which make Wellington such an exciting destination.
