The River Retreat is situated on the outskirts of Inglewood, just a five-minute drive from specialty shops, restaurants, cafes, and the local supermarket for your basic supplies. Inglewood is nestled amidst the vibrant greenness of Taranaki pastureland, just below the forested fringe of Te Papa-Kura-o-Taranaki. The Visitors Centre is a 10-minute drive away for those keen on trampers, and New Plymouth is only a 15-minute drive away.
For those guests looking for total relaxation and rejuvenation or families wanting to get their children completely away from their devices, this is for you. Back to basics and oh so refreshing.
Please note that bookings exceeding 10 days will incur an extra mid-term cleaning and linen fee at cost to the guest every seven days.
