EV Charging Policy

A fee of $20 per charging session will be applied to guests who charge their EVs from their rooms.


Visibility and Safety
Guests must ensure that the charging corda is clearly visible when running from the window to the vehicle. High-visibility items (e.g. reflective tape, cones, flag) must be used to mark the cord and prevent tripping hazards. Charging cords should not obstruct walkways or create unsafe conditions for other guests.

Guests are fully responsible for any damage to property or injury resulting from the use of their EV charging equipment. The property is not liable for any damage to the guest’s vehicle or charging equipment.

Compliance with Regulations
Guests must comply with all local regulations and guidelines regarding EV charging. Only certified and properly maintained charging equipment should be used.

Prohibited Actions
Charging from unauthorised outlets or tampering with property electrical setup is strictly prohibited. Any violation of this policy may result in additional charges or eviction from the property.

Safe Charging Practices
Although charging station safety features reduce the risk of a mishap during the charging operation, they are heavy-duty electrical appliances and safe practices should always be followed:

  • Read and follow the instructions provided with your vehicle and by the accommodation property.
  • Ensure your hands are dry and do not touch the metal terminals on the connection points.
  • Do not use the charging station when the socket outlet is wet or during a thunderstorm.
  • Do not attempt to use the charging station to charge anything other than an electric vehicle.
  • Do not use a charging station that is damaged or modified, and do not attempt to charge a damaged battery.
  • Inspect the cables and plugs before using them.
  • Do not use cables that are worn, frayed, split or have exposed wires.
  • Do not use plugs that are cracked, crushed or have some other damage.
  • Take good care of your charging cable. Park close enough to the charging station so that you do not over-extend the cable.
  • If you have any doubts about whether it is safe to use the charging station, contact the Property Staff.

By following this policy, we aim to provide a safe and convenient EV charging experience for all our guests while maintaining the safety and integrity of our holiday park.

Nearby, you'll find the striking Te Rewa Rewa Bridge, which spans the Waiwhakaiho River, connecting Bell Block with the city. The bridge’s design is inspired by the rich history and mythology of the area. On a clear day, you’ll be treated to stunning views of the iconic bridge perfectly framing Mt Taranaki.

With stunning beaches and world-class surf breaks like Back Beach, Oakura, Kumera Patch, Stent Rd, Opunake, Mangahume, and Kaupokonui on one side, and majestic mountain vistas on the other, this drive is a must for surfers and non-surfers alike.


Mt Taranaki / Te Papakura o Taranaki

Mt Taranaki offers three main entry points, each providing access to walks ranging from ten minutes to several days. The North Egmont Visitor Centre (accessible via Egmont Village) is the closest to New Plymouth and serves as a gateway to the Pouakai Circuit, known for its stunning mountain views at the tarns, or as a starting point for a summit climb. The centre also offers short walks, bathroom facilities, and a café.

For winter snow access, East Egmont (accessible from Stratford) is ideal. The Wilkies Pools walk, located near the Dawson Falls Visitor Centre on the southern side, is another highlight. To reach the iconic reflective lake view, begin your hike from the Mangorei Road end carpark—it’s a 4-5 hour return walk to the tarn.
