Olveston Historic Home

My wife and I came to New Zealand for our honeymoon on a cruise. Decided to do the Olveston house tour, thought it would be nice to see. It was an amazing part of history to see and an amazing place to see and hear the history of the house, and how beautifully it is preserved. Unfortunately I take 2 stars away due to the lady that took us through the house, both my wife and I found her very rude to us and I believe we were not the only ones on the tour that found her a little unpleasant. Was told not to take photos as we are making her very nervous, did not realise we were not allowed to take photos. She made us feel uncomfortable and could of been a bit more polite about it and said sorry no photos allowed instead of ubruptedly making us feel unwelcome. Also making a comment, it is my job to make sure people do not lean so I am not sorry, great way to make the customer feel uncomfortable especially saying it to an elderly lady that has trouble standing, very unwelcoming, felt very anti tourist. It is unfortunate as we wanted to leave after this, and we were going to buy a souvenir from there but after this did not feel or wan to, we found the same souvenir cheaper somewhere else anyway so worked out well. Such a shame because the house was beautiful and would have really enjoyed it otherwise.
