#Coromandel #Newzealand #Review

So we have just got back from a two day trip to the #Coromandel which is a beautiful place to visit.

We followed the #coast road from #Thames which is stunning, and has panoramic views for miles (kilometers lol). Eventually we arrived in the small town (Coromandel town). A quaint colonial town with a couple of nice #restaurants, #cafes and #bars (pubs).

We stayed in the #CoromandelApartments which were very nice and very clean.

Wednesday evening we went into the town and had a supberb meal at Umu https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g652406-d1917387-Reviews-Umu-Coromandel_Coromandel_Peninsula_Waikato_Region_North_Island.html

The service was brilliant, they were friendly, the starter was magnificent (antipasti platter) and reminded us of #SouthAfrica (great food). The main meal was great as well. Good value.

The following morning we had a cooked breakfast at the Coromandel cafe and resturant https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g652406-d722782-Reviews-Coromandel_Cafe-Coromandel_Coromandel_Peninsula_Waikato_Region_North_Island.html

Great place with a real local feel to it. Very friendly.

From there we went to the #DrivingCreekRailway. Which is in the next review.
