STOP AND STAY

Athenree hot springs and campground

Close to Waihi, Waihi Beach and Katikati this is a prime campground.

Brunel Peaks Cafe, Blackmount

I wonder how many of you know about the Stop and Stay nestled at the foothills of the Takitimu mountains?

Omokoroa Domain

Omokoroa is only 20km northwest of Tauranga’s CBD and 24km to Katikati.

Harrison Cut, Papamoa

Four mins drive to Papamoa Plaza or a 30 min walk.

Uretara Domain

I stayed here for three nights; a great spot. Every Friday night they have a Farmers market at the adjacent A&P Show grounds

Mid winter dinner Canterbury

There is something precious about meeting around the table. Sharing food, or in this case buying your own!

Home for the next week

Lake Ohau. A tad chilly in the mornings.
