The beauty of having your own wheels is that you can travel anywhere, anytime. Make the most of your newfound freedom by experiencing all there is to do in Stratford. It’s just 30 miles away. See the best sights beginning with Te Popo Gardens, King Edward Park and Stratford Golf Course. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Hawera, 35 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be Hawera Water Tower. (But we’d also highly recommend KD’s Elvis Presley Museum and Tawhiti Museum.)
