Fish n Chips while in New Plymouth. The good and the bad everywhere you go. I owned a fish n chip shop and are quite the critic. I would recommend this one for good kiwi picnic at the beach. Ask for fresh fish and I’m sure you will enjoy ! Burgers not my dish here but they do great fish n chips !

AKA the whale bridge. It’s pretty cool and about 29 minutes walk away from the house. Great photo opportunities here framed by the bridge with a mountain backdrop

City/town information

Located 8 minutes drive north on SH3 you will find Urenui Village. You will find a 4 square supermarket and our favorite fish and chip shop which is also one of the closest if you are craving fresh fish and chips during your stay. You will also find an 18 hole golf coarse in the domain along with a kid safe river and beach out front from the camp site. the beach isnt very child safe so the river is the usual spots for the young ones to play and swim .

Your own vehicle is the best way to get around New Plymouth

Your are close to town and getting around is fairly quick and easy. Everything is pretty much 5 minutes away by car. If you don’t have your car or are heading out for few drinks. Grab a Taxi or Uber for around $10 each way. Buses are available at the end of the street.
