Kawhia Camping Ground
Grant was warm friendly and accommodating.
We stayed for four nights and went kayaking in the beautiful Kawhia harbour most days. It was a short drive to Ocean Beach and hot water bathing!
Camp ground was clean and presentable, with lots of free independent travellers to talk to from all over the world. Small intimate camp grounds, we felt safe and secure. The area was quiet and peaceful- early morning Tui and bellbird calls, along with fishing boats heading to the boat ramp the only interruptions. We stayed in one of the clean tidy cabins. Mattress could have been softer, but a fridge and little freezer made life bearable during the heat of the week.

Rally Drive NZ Ltd
This was fantastic...
was a fiftieth birthday present from my darling partner to me, her two boys and two mates... All of us had a ball... we were taught how to drive in rally fashion and then able to do 3 laps each, whilst listening to instructions from the knowledgeable and professional instructors. - Some were better listeners than others! This was much better fun than your typical birthday party. The missus had to change cars cause her posterior couldn't fit into the first car (much hilarity ensued over this!) we all had safety gear and safety briefings with communications and go pro type vids of our runs! We all thought we were going flat out and bought back to earth with hot laps with the pros... O for awesome... the best fun with ya pants on!! Money well spent and raved for at least a week afterwards.. keep up the good work. From Mike, Vicky Antz, Jamie, Andi and Adrianne. Sorry for the length of time it took to write this review!!
