We cannot recommend the Bedford House Truck enough! Location is FANTASTIC - right on the beach! It feels private since you're separate from the main hostel rooms, but there's a real sense of community and it's easy to get to know people coming and going or while you cook a meal in the communal kitchen. Only a 5-10 minute walk to the tavern nextdoor (great cider and nachos), the start of the Pororari River Track, and Pancake Rocks. Accessibility is perfect, but it still feels like a quiet beach bach. The sound of the waves at night helped me get the best sleep of the trip! Be sure and be near the beach when the sun goes down - the sunsets are beautiful!
