Collingwood Motel Accommodation - Collingwood Park Motel

The Collingwood Park Motel in Golden Bay is situated only 200 metres from the beach (a great beach for collecting shells and interesting driftwood), with the Aorere River estuary (winter home of the spoonbills) on our back doorstep. Numerous sea birds are found on the estuary and the beach.
There are many activities and trips in Golden Bay and the Collingwood Park Motel is close to The Heaphy Track, for walking and mountain biking, Whanganui Inlet, Cape Farewell horse treks, bird watching, Milnethorpe Park and other short walks.
It is a short distance to local restaurants and the famous Rosy Glow Chocolate shop. Collingwood Park Motel is the closest motel to the renowned Farewell Spit Eco Tours which operate from right across the road and the Farewell Spit Nature Tour begins just up the road. The Te Anaroa Caves are close by with guided walks available on request.These caves have been highly rated, particularly by overseas guests.
Stay at Collingwood Park and enjoy the proximity to nature, the beach and Golden Bay's unique lifestyle and climate.
Additional services:
