Reviews of The Kumara Box
L.Really pleasant experience super lovely couple fun to ride in the barrel train the little church was so cute being the tiniest church in NZ
J.Amazing short stop in Dargville, don't just driveby, stop and see the smallest church in NZ and jump on the cart ride through the secret track or just have a chat with extremely friendly host and grab some fresh kumara. Highly recommend.
J.May and Ernie are incredible. The Kumara Box Museum is amazing. Everyone need to go there.
L.This is a roadside attraction par excellence. May's show was absolutely delightful, and the cabinet of curiosities was packed with everything imaginable. The kitchen is clean and well stocked. We had a lovely view of the sunset across the fields when we camped. We were certain we would be murdered, one of the weirdest places I've ever been, cannot recommend it enough.
M.Awesome place. Thanks Ernie really enjoyed the "train" ride and the show
E.The absolute best people, amazing hospitality, lovely and genuine married couple who runs
The Kumara Box. When you arrive they welcome you into there home and you get offered a hot cup of tea or coffee with some nice biscuits. You sit down and have a good talk to start to get to know one another. Just the perfect location to stay at.
Thank you soo much Warren and Mavis, I am going to miss you.
S.Funky place to stay in a camper, and your fee for overnight gets you in to see museum as well as a lounge area, kitchen, and shower. It’s an eclectic collection honouring Kumara history, nautical and marine life, and a bunch of other miscellaneous things that captured the owners fancy. In the morning I walked over the New Zealand’s smallest church. Kumara Ernie was away so I didn’t get to meet him, or see a show in their theatre.
This really is a one of a kind place for being so unique, and the hosts are such lovely, friendly people!
A.This was such a cool experience! I don't even like kumara, but I had a great time. Ernie is larger than life and took us for a ride on a train made out of old 44 gallon drums through his garden of weird and wonderful creations. Indoors we saw how kumara are planted, picked and processed - it was actually pretty interesting! Ernie showed off more quirky tricks and inventions and told us about the area and its history. Well worth the visit.
M.I went to the Kumara Box on june25th2019 on a working holiday & I thoroughly enjoyed it. I gave a 5* rating bcos we were treated with lotsa love, respect & entertainment. I'm glad I met Ernie, he has a great sense of humor & the nicest kumara. We brought 5 bags all up. Thankyou Ernie, you & your lovely wife r the best.
C.bought a bag of 10kg kumara for $15, really a bargain. The lady over there told us the owner died of cancer, and he took good care of the kumara box in his life. We can tell from the presence and a large well maintained field.
s.I really enjoyed this there are some very talented people in Dargaville and surrounding areas.Well worth the Tim's to visit...
L.Everyone should visit this and have the tour. For $10 per person you get to have a guide your of the creative display plus to visit the smallest church in New Zealand. A must for tourists and locals
A.Eric was great. It was an awesome ride on his barrel carriage
P.Interesting little place to drop by. It's not just the tiniest church, it has a lot of interesting large craft pieces/sculptures to see (that's how I'd describe them). Well worth a stop if you're passing by.
H.Ernie is awesome, what he and the lovely May have put together is incredible. If you like quirky, rural humour this is not a place to be missed and just say you were recommended by Uncle Hugh
S.Owner very friendly. Took us to see workers and machinery racking up Kumara from the ground. Offered us cup of tea. Kumara was beautiful and CHEAP. Recommended.
K.A perfect place to stay in campervan.
You have the kitchen, the dinning room and the hot shower. May and Warren, the hosts, are simply lovely.
E.Love to come here and talk to the lady here.
