Frequently asked questions

What are the major attractions in Stratford?
If your trip to Stratford is all locked in but your travel itinerary is a bit on the empty side, let us give you a helping hand.Plan a stop at King Edward Park. It's one attraction you'll usually find on many visitors' to-do lists. If you still have room on your itinerary, Stratford Golf Course and Taranaki Pioneer Village will keep you busy too.
What are the best road trip destinations near Stratford?
See what's going on in nearby Hawera. What's 16 miles when you've got your very own car? The drive itself is half the fun!

If you can only find time for one attraction here, let it be Bowl of Brooklands. (But we'd also recommend Pukekura Park and Lake Mangamahoe.)
