Upclose Safaris is based out of New Plymouth and can help arrange bookings with hotels/motels/lodges whatever your tastes and budget. However for some hunts like Wild Cattle or a Trophy Fallow its best to stay ‘on site’ in cabins or shearers quarters to get the most out of the hunt and not spend too much time travelling.

Staying around New Plymouth can be great especially if you are travelling with non hunters (mum and the kids) as there are heaps of walkways, cafés and shopping centres.
