NZ's friendliest regions and towns

Hi there,
Canterbury has been named the fifth most welcoming region in the world in the Booking.com Traveller Review Awards, while Oamaru, Hokitika and Invercargill have been named the most welcoming towns in NZ. They were followed by Cambridge, Picton, Lake Tekapo, Kerikeri, Palmerston North, … View more
Hi there,
Canterbury has been named the fifth most welcoming region in the world in the Booking.com Traveller Review Awards, while Oamaru, Hokitika and Invercargill have been named the most welcoming towns in NZ. They were followed by Cambridge, Picton, Lake Tekapo, Kerikeri, Palmerston North, Paihia and Twizel.
We'd be really keen to hear your thoughts on this based on your own travels around New Zealand. Do you think Canterbury is NZ's most welcoming region? And are these our most welcoming towns?
Where in NZ have you been made to feel particularly welcome on your travels?
As usual, please put 'NFP' in your comment if you don't want it to be included in an article. Cheers.

Thinking about a new venue for your community group in 2021?

The Sunnynook Scout Hall is a great facility on the edge of Sunnynook Park. It is very well used by the Kea, Cub, & Scout groups in the evenings, but is vacant most of the time during the day.

It is a good backup venue if the Sunnynook Community Centre is booked up. It is also fairly robust, so suitable for things like preschool ball sports.

In the last few years we have put a lot of time and effort into improving the hall so it is now a lot tidier, safer and warm in winter.

You can check out the booking calendar and facility details at the Scout Group's website - sunnynook.org.nz
