We arrived at the park early afternoon and walked down to the beautiful long golden sand beach. What a marvellous place whilst on the beach a sea lion came ashore and waddled up the beach. We were the only people there and obtained some lovely photos of the animal who was extremely fat getting up the beach to rest for... More

Me and 3 other international students stayed in Chalet Cabin B for 2 nights, while visiting the Catlins the last weekend of April. We were so happy and satisfied with our choice of staying here due to a lot of reasons (and it was only 26.50$ pr person for 4 people - very cheap in the Catlins): 1) Very cosy... More

Me and my wife stayed in a Chalet Cabin for 1 night in April and really enjoyed our stay here. This holiday park is in a wonderful quiet location, just a few minutes walk from Surat Bay beach. We received a personal and friendly welcome on arrival and let ourselves into our chalet cabin. The cabin was very comfortable -... More

We discovered this little spot by chance. You will have to take a short trip from Owaka to Surat Bay which is a stunning spot. A beautiful walk at low tide was a highlight. Great kitchen facilities. Friendly owner. Good rates. Not too busy.

This was our second visit. The cabin no.3 was new since our last visit and was perfect for our requirements. Nothing is too much troble for Lyndon and Jacquie. We stayed 5 nights and just to be able to walk along the beach each evening makes it worth staying. We have no hesitation in saying it is the best holiday... More

This is exactly how a holiday park should be. Friendly owners, well maintained, impeccably clean, quiet and a great location. We stayed in Tourist Flat 1 which was roomy and very comfortable for the two of us. Lyndon and Jacqui cheerfully helped us with any requests and we felt right at home. We spent 5 days there going on walks... More

I loved this place. We stayed a couple of nights last week and it was perfect. It's a small campground and I think this is what gives Newhaven its charm- it felt very homely- no doubt helped by a very friendly greeting by one of the owners, Lyndon. Best cabin I've ever stayed in- it was tidy with a comfy... More

We stayed in a cabin with a bunk bed and two singles. We were absolutely stunned to walk in to a modern, fresh and sparklingly clean home that we so enjoyed for the three nights we were there. No expense spared in presentation and all needs catered for in kitchen/living items. So peaceful and lovely to not feel overrun with... More

We stayed in a Tourist Flat with two adults and an infant and it was adequate for this. There are 3 single beds in the bedroom (a queen bed is in the living area) so you can sleep a family of 4 or 5. Compared to other flats / cabins / cottages we have stayed in in the South Island... More
