Stay at the Bushland Park Lodge and you absolutely will not be disappointed. The most difficult part of planning our family trip to New Zealand was choosing where to go with the limited time that we had. After much research, I found that the Coromandel Peninsula and the Whangamata region would offer scenery, beaches, and bush that my teenagers would... More

We arrived at Bushland Park Lodge having spent a lovely but tiring day driving around the Coromandel Peninsula. Paula and Reinhard were waiting to welcome us with a refreshing drink and gave us a choice of rooms (all so nice it was difficult to choose). We were very pleased that dinner was available at the Lodge as it allowed us... More

BLP was recommended to us “If you don’t stay anywhere else in NZ you must stay at BPL” by friends who had stayed in 2011. We stayed 3 nights in February and it was truly a great experience. Petra & Reinhard were the perfect hosts, we arrived as guests and left as family! Start the day with one of Petra’s... More

We chose to stay here because we needed a base to explore the Coromandel Peninsula and we had enjoyed a stay in a bush lodge on the South Island a few years ago. The Bushland Park Lodge is a little different from our previous experience as hosts Petra & Reinhard have surrounded the lodge with wonderful gardens that they have... More

A perfect romantic getaway for valentines. We were looking for somewhere to get away to enjoy each others company and this was brilliant. Our hosts left us alone to do our own thing but were available when we needed them. Dinner was delicious and Petra had made contact with us prior to make sure there was nothing we would prefer...

We stayed at the lodge for three days. We knew it was going to be good when we saw the handwritten welcome note on a board outside the entrance. We were warmly greeted by Petra, who showed us to our suite. There are only three suites here. We chose the Kauri Suite, which was extremely comfortable. We were lucky enough... More

A BIG THANKYOU to Petra & Reinhard for the wonderful anniversary treat at their special lodge. The suite was awesome, the dinner was superb, the glow worms were sparkling and the bath was a lot of fun. We enjoyed every minute of it and it was great to listen to the many amazing stories from the interesting lives of our... More

Bushland Park Lodge is a great B&B, in a quite location, close to good walks and surrounded by lush sub-tropical forest. We truly enjoyed our stay. The house is warm and very welcoming, and they’re helpful hosts, with a lot of local knowledge, and recommendations for good walks to take and things to do. We loved Reinhard’s excellent cooking and... More

Our November wedding was a dream at Bushland Park Lodge. Petra's amazing attention to detail ensured that planning was no drama and both Petra and Reinhard ensured that every little detail was looked after. We were married on the lawn in front of a beautiful flowering cabbage tree, with the stunning twin kauri trees overlooking us nearby, making a beautiful... More
