“The receptionist was very kind. It was raining when we reached and we were unable to find our cabin just because we were unfamiliar. She gladly walked in the rain just to show us where our cabin was! It was something we didn't expect her to do at...”

Ebony and Caesar, our pet sheep, absolutely love taking selfies! Star and Sonnie, our miniature ponies, enjoy a friendly pat and a treat of bread or a carrot. Both children and adults are charmed by Penny, our kunikuni pig, and the free-range hens that roam around, chirping happily. You can find all of them at the holiday park, often mingling with our guests!
We purchased the holiday park in 2000 and still enjoy meeting people and helping them get the most out of their holiday in the beautiful Far North. Our local knowledge about beaches, walks, fishing and swimming gives guests a good idea of what is on offer in the area. There is a multichude of adventures you can have if you know where to go, and you only need to take your lunch and a camera!
