We absolutely loved our weekend at Clovelly! The beach is really close, the pizzeria at the end of the street is a real treasure, New Plymouth is only a short drive up the road, the bach is exactly what it is advertised as, a perfect example of a kiwi bach. There were plenty of towels, pillows and blankets and the selection of teas, coffees and breakfast food were extensive. We would recommend Clovelly to anybody wanting to stay in the New Plymouth or Oakura area.
