Gentle Annie
Gentle Annie
Gentle Annie Seaside Accommodation & Camping Ground sits at the mouth of the Mōkihinui River on New Zealand's West Coast, about 50 kilometres north of Westport on the doorstep of Kahurangi National Park.
Sheltered, private campsites are set among landscaped gardens within a short walk of both the river and the Tasman Sea beach. The location enjoys a notably warm, frost-free microclimate and is bounded by Nikau-fringed native bush.
The campground operates year-round and also offers cabin and lodge accommodation for those seeking something more sheltered. Dogs are welcome provided they remain under close owner supervision, given the presence of roaming native birdlife.
The surrounding area offers excellent opportunities for surfing, fishing, swimming, and access to trails including the Heaphy Track and Old Ghost Road.
