Morrinsville (Cream of the Country) is in the Waikato (North Island) New Zealand.
Heartland at its best – big enough to HAVE IT! Small enough for you to FIND IT!
Situated between the Kaimai Ranges and the Waikato River. Set on easy rolling terrain, surrounded by some of the best farmland in New Zealand.
We can offer you quality Accommodation, Restaurants and Eateries. Complimented by a full range of retail and other services.
If golf is your interest, we have several to choose from.
If Art is your pleasure why not take the time to stroll around the town and follow the “arts trail” of historic homesteads and buildings. The Matamata Piako District Council have recently updated the "Heritage Trail" booklet and this is now available from the Morrinsville Information Centre. The booklet covers the three towns of Morrinsville, Matamata and TeAroha.
A visit to the new Wallace Art Gallery on Thames Street is a "must see" for locals and visitors alike. We are very proud of this wonderful addition to our district. The continuous change of art exhibit's ensure repeat visits are essential www.morrinsvillegallery.org.nz
A great place for a stop over on your way to the East Coast, West Coast, Rotorua Lakes and Thermals, Waitomo Caves, the unique Coromandel Peninsular and Hamilton City. All within easy driving distance. Stop for a coffee break and a muffin or stay longer for a leisurely lunch.
Morrinsville can offer a variety of walks, along the river or around the town. Take a relaxed stroll through our recreation grounds, stop for a swim (pools open from November to March) or a picnic. The new Morrinsville Heritage Centre (Morrinsville Museum) will be opening later in the year, the old museum has been partially relocated to its new home on Canada Street. Come along and visit the Waka (opposite the new building).
