Guests will appreciate the easy access to nearby amenities including Pak’nSave, Domino’s, Pizza Hut, Indian and Chinese restaurants, a Turkish kebab shop, and several other takeaway options.
Our motel is situated on an elevated, sunny site in Timaru, adjacent to the picturesque Ashbury Park, which borders the sea and the popular Caroline Bay picnic and amusement area. The central location places guests just minutes from a wide range of attractions, dining options, and essential services.
