  • Beautiful, beautiful place.

    I spent about 14 days there unplanned because my cell phone died and I was allowed to have a new one sent there. The whole time I stayed in a tent on the lawn in front of the reception, which is one of the nicest spots on the campsite. Flowers all around, trees, scented bushes, trees. There's a car repair shop not far from the campground if you need anything (I had a flat tire).

    There are lots of beautiful places to visit in the area. Rakaia gorge, Lake Coleridge, Sharplin Falls and many more.

    The owners are very helpful and friendly.

    Unlimited hot showers. What more could you ask for at the border of the plains of Rohan, the site of Edoras (Mt. Sunday). Land of the horse lords.

    I will definitely come again :).

  • Diane works at the campsite and was so great to deal with.

    They had a motorcycle group staying whilst we were there and the campsite was super busy. We called ahead and Diane sorted us out with a great spot out the back. The facilities were spotless and the cleanest on our two week trip around NZ. Not a creepy crawly in sight in the bathrooms 👌will definitely be back.

  • We can't rate this campsite and the owners, Georgie and Pete enough!

    Myself and my bf stayed here throughout the winter season whilst we worked up at mt hutt.

    Georgie and Pete were so accommodating! We really felt like we were a part of their extended family

    After a few weeks of living in our van we were offered one of their lodges for the duration of our stay!

    Everything was super clean, beautiful and the whole place is welcoming! Kitchen has everything you need and the bathroom has hot showers 😍

    Georgie and Pete go out of their way to make your stay the best it can be!

    We miss our home already 😔

    But will definitely make sure to come back!

    Thankyou Georgie and Pete ❤

  • What a lovely place!

    It's a sweet small camping owned by a nice family. Facilities are great and very clean. We even thought the price was to low ($26 non powered site, 2 people).

    WiFi is free and very good.

  • Lovely little old fashioned campground.

    Owners obviously take a lot of pride in their ground as it is neat as a pin with beautiful trees/garden. Very quiet and clean. I would prefer the bathrooms to be warmer, even if I had to put coins in a heater? But not a big deal. A nice option to stay in the countryside and also close to Mt Hutt, which is where we were headed after our night at Mt Somers. Would stay again.

    The facilities are clean and tidy, showers and kitchen spotless. The pub just down the road has a nice warm fire and does meals.

  • Small but friendly camp.

    Dated but immaculately clean facilities. Lacks a playground, so kids found it a bit boring.

  • Very neat camping ground with very friendly owners.

    The facilities are not the newest ones but very clean and we felt really comfortable. There is also a common room available where you can e.g. play some table tennis.
