Great free one. Fantastic playground for the small ones and next to it three public toilets.
Very quiet and lot off space.

Beautiful, plenty of flat spaces to park even big enough for our bus. Also has duplicates station, hose for fresh water has holes so cant use. Lovely spot will park there again.
Access savings worth hundreds of $$ on Top Ranked NZ Accommodation and Activities for just $1 per day.

Amazing large flat sites between soccer fields and the river, under trees and separated by bushes. A block of clean and modern unisex toilets is walking distance across the field. There's a kid's playground at one end. Parkland extends along the river and is used for rugby, dog obedience, pony club, and a riding club but when we arrived only a few joggers and dog owners were there. By the morning there were a dozen motorhomes there, but there's plenty of space.

Nice quiet place between sports grounds and river. Clean toilet near entrance. Plenty of clean parking on the grass between the trees with good privacy. Locals friendly.
Each camping location is approved by a regional council in NZ. So if it shows on the map, you’re allowed to stay.

We stayed in the car park beside some trees and it was nice. Very quiet and secluded.

We love stopping over here. Never have anyone right beside us, it's peaceful and sheltered. We have stayed at all times of year and seasons and would highly recommend.

Doesn't feel like you are in town. Lots of 'travellers' around with their amazing caravans. Parked near toilets at the entrance but near the dog training centre so alot of barking until they had all gone. Also loads of dog walkers in the park. Otherwise a nice quiet spot.

Good spot. Opposite a large grassed park or sporting fields. Seasonal stream behind parking spot.
