Are you in Kaikoura, checking out the free site by the beach in the pouring rain, imagining a shivering cold night ahead? Stop what you’re doing and roll over to Donegal House! It is FREE if you don’t require power, and their pub has a roaring warm fire that you can warm yourself by for hours, with a comforting pint, before you tuck yourself into your beloved van. We did, and we couldn’t have been happier about it.

I found this location to be excellent, I almost feel guilty that we stayed for free. But I got over it. Friendly folks, very interesting history of the place and we found the restaurant food to be excellent. Plus the wife did have a regular Coke which I sampled and tasted very good. I assume the Coke is made with sugar and not corn suryup like it is in the US.

Very nice place, free toilet, shower 4$, very good food, and very much places available. Non powered is free. And a nice few in the morning.

Great place for a stay!
Clean facilities, friendly people and non powered sites are free! :-)
Good pub/restaurant with a.o. Guinness on tap and if you like Irisch pub food, this is home with a mountain view.

What a gem! We stayed in a non powered site for 4 nights completely free. Showers are 4 dollars for 4 minutes in really nice well maintained bathrooms. Plenty of places to site by the duck pond. Great place for food and a drink. There is drinking water but it was really warm so we just filled up our water in the isite in town each evening

This is a great property with tons of space and a cozy bar. It is free or a donation if you don't need power. We were there over Christmas so it was very quiet and some of the facilities were out of order.

Great place to stay. Like others say, plenty of space and free non-powered sites available. Great bar inside too
