Decent room for price paid for 1 night. Bed on older side but slept well, quiet, and reasonably clean. Manager was also barkeep for the restaurant so bought a cold beer to take to my room.

Lovely grounds with several accommodation types & private outdoor seating options, super friendly and helpful owners, good shared kitchen & bathroom facilities, gorgeous setting with plenty of beaches and walks to be had. Curious, friendly chickens! Very peaceful.
Guests staying at Catlins Newhaven Holiday Park are a 5-minute walk from Surat Bay, a long sand beach in Newhaven, where you may be lucky enough to see a Hooker Sea Lion.

Although we didn’t see any wildlife, the staff were helpful in pointing out where they’ll likely be! Located a couple minutes walk from the beach.
Facilities are super clean! Shower takes a minute to warm up and are coin operated. I like that they are eco-conscious and use rainwater! Coins are given at checkout, one per person for 7 minutes.

The tiny house concept is interesting. The decor was charming (especially the William Morris print bedspread) and the kitchen well stocked. It was great to pick apples and pears to eat. The owners are truly committed to the environment.

We loved being so close to a beautiful bay reknowned for being a sea lion hangout. Great walk from Surat Bay to Cannibal Bay and saw lots of sea lions. We loved being able to hear the sea when we were lying in bed. The wifi was brilliant. Jane was an excellent host and left us a big range of breakfast foods and gave us fresh tomatoes from her garden. The cabin was really well equipped with kitchen equipment and was very homely . we didn’t need them but there were plenty of heaters for when it’s chilly, also electric blankets. We didn’t eat out but Jane gave us lots of recommendations.

The accommodation is perfect, clean and very comfortable surrounded by a very lovely garden. Our host Jane is friendly, kind and caring. The situation of the accommodation is in a very tranquil area about 3/5 min walk to the bay and a long beach walk with lots of wildlife. I found it very easy to get to other parts of The Catlins along the coast from here.

Access really great. The accommodation is clean and comfortable- just needs a little modernisation which our lovely host says she will be starting on this winter

Norm & Thelma were excellent hosts.
Norm & Thelma were excellent hosts. Thelma provided cooked breakfasts & catered for my restricted diet & allergies. They are both talented artists. Their long time neighbour happened to be a relative of mine & we met up for lunch in Timberjacks, a very good Owaka Cafe. The sight seeing is remarkable in the Catlins, but you need a car, & be prepared to walk. Take care on the beaches and give the Sea Lions a wide berth. They can move at 25 to 30km/hr so you wont outrun them! If you come in winter the weather will be very cold.

Location was brilliant and a fantastic base to cycle or walk around a beautiful coastal area. The accommodation was fine for a short stay but is a bit dated. The shower pressure is not very good and the heating is a single portable heater which would not be very effective if it was cold. Overall a reasonable base to explore an amazing part of the country but definitely not luxurious.
