If you are looking for comfortable ensuite accommodation; a campervan site in a quiet garden setting; a warm welcome and sweeping sea views then look no further. Since March 1st 2007 ours is the only Holiday Park in Riverton
We have 2 ensuite units, as well as beautifully landscaped tent and campervan sites, full kitchen, laundry and bathroom facilities, and a large recreation hall.
Longwood Holiday Park is set up on high with wonderful sweeping views of Taramea Bay, and within walking distance of Riverton town, the beach and Mores Reserve Bush Walks.
Your hosts are from pioneering farming families in the fertile plains of Western Southland. Being retired from paid employment we have plenty of time to spend with our customers.
We have had a long association with the tourist and holiday industry, having been involved with management of accommodation facilities at Invercargill, Te Anau, Milford Sound and Tahuna Beach in Nelson. We are both Life Members of the Youth Hostels Association. Helen was recently a tour guide at 'Olveston' in Dunedin.
Together we have a wide knowledge of Western Southland and look forward to sharing that knowledge with our guests.
