The communal fire-pit was a real bonus. Our hosts were happy to provide logs and we had a fabulous final...

New Plymouth is a great place to stay. Good size town, great art gallery and great museum, plenty of good restaurants and cafes. Brilliant 13km coastal walkway, ideal for cycling/walking. The jewel in the crown is Mt Taranaki, 3 fantastic visitor centres, walks to suit all ages. Highly recommended.
