Copthorne Resort Solway Park Masterton is set in 24 acres of landscaped grounds in the lush Wairarapa Valley framed by the towering Tararua Ranges on the outskirts of the town. Masterton is the largest centre in the lower North Island 100 kilometres from Wellington. The large low-rise complex has 56 deluxe and 42 standard rooms, 4 suites with spa baths, and 5 motel units. It also has a huge range of conference rooms seating from 20 to 400. The resort is in a major wine growing area and one that offers many activities on land and water. Guests enjoy everything from a visit to glow worm caves and arts and crafts tours to parachuting and abseiling. There's trout and deep-sea fishing, canoeing, rafting, jet boat trips and shooting using laser guns.

The 4 star resort has very many on-site activities from billiards and pool to pitch'n'putt golf, a golf driving range, tennis and squash, and a jogging track. It has 2 swimming pools, 1 of which is indoor and heated, 2 spa pools, a solarium and well equipped gymnasium. As it specialises in conference, the resort offers extensive team-building programs including a high ropes course and a full-scale confidence course.

Vines Restaurant offers a la carte and set menus complemented by an excellent selection of Wairarapa wines, while the casual Cobb and Co is ideal for family dining. There is 24-hour room service and the town centre is only 3 kilometres away if you feel like a meal downtown.

The resort offers a local tour guide service, tour and excursion bookings, and babysitting.
