  • 20 designated spaces in the car park.

    Clean toilets open 24/7. Can stay for two nights, signpost a bit unclear though as says camping only permitted between 18:00 - 09:00 so if you’re staying for two nights I’m not sure if you’re meant to park somewhere else in the day?

    Regardless, a fine place to stay if wanting to walk to nearby vineyards for tastings etc.

  • It’s just a carpark but plenty of spaces, great location for wine tasting in Renwick, and nice restrooms open 24 hours.

    As far as carpark campgrounds go, it’s about as good as it gets!

  • A nice, quiet carpark (on a Wed), can fit max 20 cars.

    The freecamp space is clearly marked in yellow. There were 10 of us when we camped there, so plenty of space for everyone. Felt safe the whole time. Really clean toilets nearby.

  • Good clean public toilets available 24/7, near a couple of pubs and a small supermarket.

    Ideal if you want somewhere free outside of Blenheim. I even got picked up here for a wine tour!

  • A large car park next to a sports field with spaces available from 6pm til 8am.

    Public toilets close by and are open all night. A short walk to a small supermarket, butchers, bakers and an excellent coffee shop. There is also an ‘English’ pub. Excellent location for visiting local wineries especially if you do it by bike. We would highly recommend Wine Tours by Bike who are within walking distance of the domain.

  • Allocated area in car parking lot.

    Nice and flat and with good, clean flushing toilets nearby. According to the 2023 council byelaw number of spaces has increased from 10 to 20 although signage at the car park has not, as of yet, been updated. Convenience store and fish and take away really close round the corner too!

  • Flat, tarmac surface, clean toilets in the sports block, well lit all night, wide open space all around the rec fields.

    Only stay in the numbered spaces close to the car park entry, you can stay until 9am. Small supermarket, nice butchers and bakery, pub, tavern and take away all within walking distance. Thank you Renwick for the great space, we felt welcome and safe and it was blissfully quiet all night.

  • Arrived at the parking lot early and no one was there.

    Thought this was a beautiful spot to park up until… someone from the Sports and Events centre made snarky remarks to my partner about campers. We were parked in the correct zone allocated so didn’t see the issue. Then some noisy cars came and parked nearby which made me feel uneasy as more cars turned up. I just couldn’t shake that feeling of unwelcomeness so we took off after only an hour of being parked up. Went to Taylors Pass instead and felt better. Hopefully your experience will be better

    Clean toilets. We stayed here because we did a wine bike tour during the day. Really nothing to complain about when it's free. No problems with noise for us

  • Initially looked like it would be a lovely quite spot only 2 other vans.

    Then the local boy racers turned up loud cars and people. Within minutes of them leaving another group turned up we left the grounds at 3am as couldnt cope. It must be the place for the young ones to gather. Is a public spot so guess its always possible.
