Gold miners once flocked to this historic town where you can now explore the fascinating School of Mines and interactive mining museum. Hike the nearby Karangahake Gorge for spectacular views or browse the charming Saturday morning market for local crafts and fresh produce.
Dale and Margaret were the greatest hosts during our stay! The view was astounding (even during a little rain), the facilities were great and after 3 nights we really didn't want to leave. Great location and highly recommend a visit.

Lovely property, the manager was so helpful just a note for families the beds are upstairs and only single hand rail
So it is a bit daunting if travelling with parents - also Navman does not take you directly to the route so a phone call sorts that out. Older property however well suited to us

We drove into Tairua and into the Main Street of this lovely, neat and tidy town. There were a few cafes and shops including a Four Square supermarket and a bottle shop. We stopped in at one of the cafes for lunch and it was so delicious we ordered take away meals and took them with us for dinner that night. We found the hotel easily - about a 5 minute drive from the town centre and were greeted by the manager who also informed us of some activities nearby including kayaking and canoeing. Our...

This was our second stay. The accommodation is conveniently located just North of Thames. It is a short five minute drive into town.
The view from the room to the sea is nice. The room is spacious. The balcony/deck - which also connects to the neighbouring rooms with a table and two chairs is nice and spacious, too.
We do like the small kitchen to prepare our own breakfast and fridge to store chilled and frozen goods.
The staff is friendly and accomodating.
