For the traveller who wants to discover the ‘real Thames’, bed and breakfasts offer the chance to do just that. What better way to immerse yourself in the Kiwi lifestyle than to be welcomed into a thoughtfully furnished home and be indulged by friendly, attentive hosts? Capture the true essence of New Zealand as you experience Kiwi hospitality first-hand. As the name suggests, bed and breakfasts usually include breakfast in their tariff, with hosts generally offering more than just coffee and toast – full English breakfasts comprising bacon, eggs and sausage are a Kiwi favourite, while continental breakfasts offer lighter choices such as fresh fruit, croissants, cereals and yoghurts. Bed and breakfasts are the ideal option if you want a little luxury and the chance to converse with others. Or why not make your next romantic escape in a cosy cottage-style B&B, where you can relax and unwind in a ‘home away from home’.

The Thames market is held every Saturday morning; shop for arts, crafts and fresh produce. There are many wonderful walks and hiking tracks in the Kauaeranga Valley and the Karangahake Gorge has several walking tracks that are easy and flat.
