Really great site, especially if you have just arrived and may be tired or dropping off your car/motorhome the next day.
Within a few minutes of camper hire sites and the airport. Full facilities plus more. Loads of bins to get rid of your recycling and even a space to wash your motorhome. Can’t fault it bearing in mind you are virtually in Christchurch

Refrigerators were full and no cooking pots, pans, etc are provided.
Tent sites tend to be hot and dusty in the summer.

In der Nähe der Campervan Station, also ziemlich praktisch.
Der Platz an sich ist ok. Die Kochgelegenheiten, Duschen und Wc‘s teils ziemlich abgerockt.
Da wir schon ein par Wochen Camperleben hinter uns hatten war es für uns ok.

Reception staff lovely, friendly and helpful.
Have had 2 stays here, one in a tent and once in a cabin both due to travelling to the airport.
Both times the road noise and the fellow campers/ residents constantly woke us up. Not the site’s fault but if you’re staying here a campervan or self contained cottage away from the main facilities would probably be a lot better

Stayed on powered site on our last night before returning the camper.
Chose the site as its 5mins to camper rentals and had a dump site and fuel station. Dan was great and gave us a good lot. Heavily used bathroom facilities as site was super busy, just used our camper facilities. Kitchen was clean. Recommend to use the site if ur only returning the camper next day as it might not be a great site to end ur holiday.

Just a quick overnight stay after flying in just after midnight.
Key and map tapped to reception window was a different way to do after hours check in but it worked fine.
Room was simple which was fine but most importantly it was nice and clean.
Let us to check out a little late as we were waiting for our campervan to arrive which was much appreciated.
Good alternative that is really close to the airport.
Thanks

Ok site with older facilities.
Bathrooms ok though hard to tell if the showers were occupied or not. Tired kitchen but serviceable enough. Convenient location after flying to the airport.

Great place to start or end your campervan holiday. If you are starting, check out the kitchen, for left over salt, pepper, toilet paper etc. etc.
If you are ending : the drive to Britz/Maui/Jucy/Apollo is just 5 minutes.
We stood at a grassy site (no. 48), where power was not working and sites were not very level.
Burger King is at the fuel station, a few minutes walking.

1 night for 2, powered site $40. Our last van night before we go home. Friendly welcome. Reasonable price.
Maybe not the most salubrious place we have been to in 8 weeks but perfectly ok as a last stop. Don’t forget where it is, near the hire depots and in an industrial area.
Car/van wash area. Cold water, bucket, brushes and rags. Hose pipe not quite long enough and it leaked when pointing up so I got a bit wet. However, it was there and didn’t cost extra. Try not to splash the people in the adjacent cabin.
Van sites are gravel, ours was level with power and water. Picnic tables too on the grass area between pitches.
The toilet/shower block nearest reception is undergoing an upgrade and was supposed to be finished by 2nd November so should be soon. The other one is ok.
Shower is push button. Pre set temperature that is good, no messing about trying to get it right. 6 minutes followed by 3 minutes delay. Rush through and enjoy standing in the hot shower!
Plenty of rubbish and recycling bins.
Kids play stuff and a swimming pool for the summer.
Free WiFi. Unlike others we had no problems with it at all.
Kitchens.
Laundries with choice of hot or cold washes!
Outside the park is a commercial vehicle cleaning area with vacuum hoses at a good price.
There is also a Z fuel station. Perfect for the final refuel. Don’t forget your 6cents a litre off from New World. Other supermarkets are available. My wife particularly likes Countdown for their muffins!
Unfortunately there are no near bars or shops. Either a long walk or you have to drive. Z fuel do have a shop with the usual fuel station goods. No beer.
Noise. A bit of road and plane but not so bad. The high revving cars late at night were more annoying. Hopefully an unusual episode.
Not a place we would stay for longer than the last night of our trip but all things considered a good option.

2 adults on a powered pitch mid March.
We stayed due to the proximity to the airport as we were returning our camper there the next morning. We were fully aware of the proximity to the motorway and airport, and hence accepted we would be disturbed but traffic - which we were. I would only recommend if you desperately need to be so close to the airport, otherwise I’m afraid this place was soulless, and I’m sure better alternatives exist.
Dan was very helpful however in helping us with the terrible WiFi, which still didn’t really work...
Showers available but I couldn’t bring myself to use it, it wasn’t the cleanest or the most inviting.
Not worth the money, you’re paying for the closeness to the airport, and little else.

The price for a van, 2 persons, 1 night, non power was $40 and that’s expensive for what you get.
Very narrow roads, dirty bathrooms, kitchen was okay and the WiFi was worthless (connected but didn’t work). Bad first night road tripping.

We stayed here for two nights before returning our motorhome.
Easy to drive into the centre of Christchurch from here. Lots of showers and toilets. Picnic bench by each site which was handy as weather was lovely.

Nothing special here, handy if you need to return your camper or like Burger King.
Not cheap.
Hi Gary - thank you for your review. Sorry you felt our prices where too expensive for you and your family however please be aware that our prices are extremely competitive compared to other Holiday Parks in the area. We do offer a 10% discount for those guests who state they found us on Rankers so if you had mentioned that at the time of check in you would have received this discount. We do hope you had a great trip around NZ. Regards Dan

Very clean camp site with a playground for the kids, the staff are really friendly and are used to people using the site before picking up or dropping off campers at the airport, and try to accommodate
you the best way that they can when you need an early check in our late check out.. we have stopped here on two occasions and each time the staff have gone out of their way to make our short stays perfect.
Hi Craig - thank you so much for taking the time to review our park and team here at NSHP. We do have a lot of people staying over night being so close to the airport. We hope to see you again for a thrid and fourth time in the future. Regards Dan

Just what we were looking for on a one night stay before returning our Maui Campervan.
Very helpful chap in the office took 10% off the camping fees when I mentioned using this app to find them. We got a stack of washing and drying done that had accumulated through our tour of South Island and used their dump station, also a filling station for diesel is right by the entrance....perfect! Really appreciated being able to leave stuff that we hadn't got round to using in their "recycling box" rather than throw it away.😎
Hello Rode Stella - thank you so much for your review and feedback we really appreciate it and it is great to hear you enjoyed your stay with for your last few days in New Zealand. The new Z Energy Petrol Station beside our park is becoming a real bonus for those needing to fill their vehicle or gas bottles. We hope you had a safe flight home and hope to see you again in the future. Regards Dan

This was a late find for us.
We arrived at around midnight and there's a note saying where to park and pay in the morning. We did just that with no problems. It's right by the airport and the camper van rental companies so it was really handy for our last night. If a little bit pricey... $42 for a powered site on grass, 2 adults, running water, recycling facilities. I wasn't bothered by the airport noise like I thought I would be. The showers are clean and fairly modern, they're limited to 6 minutes but that's plenty long enough and they're hot. There's a little pool for kids as well, we spotted lots of young families around.
Hi Nicola - thank you for your review. Great to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. The convenience of being so close to the airport and campervan rental companies is always a positive bonus for our guests. And yes the swimming is extremely popular over summer for all guests including children.

What a find!
We needed somewhere to stay the night before getting on a flight to Auckland and this was ideal! Adequate kitchen and bathroom facilities. Thatched roof picnic area for lovely al fresco dining. Petrol station nearby to fill up your camper and the airport parking is a 2 minute drive away.
The 2am start didn't seem too hard...
Thank you so much for your review - Great to hear you are enjoying some of the new features of the park. The thatched roof picnic area was built this year and our main kitchen is having a major renovation as well as our outdoor BBQ area. We agree with you that having the brand new petrol station and Burgerking right next door is such an added bonus for our guests and it is open 24 hours.

Great park and the amenities are good.
The showers are timed for 6 minutes which doesn't seem long but I found myself standing there enjoying the shower for some time after I had actually finished. Water was plenty hot enough though. Location was out of town a bit and the road noise I thought would be a problem but it wasn't. Will stay there again.
Hi Sheryl - thank you so much for your review - so nice to hear you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to having you stay with us again.

So nice to find a camping ground so close to the airport!
We had a good sleep after our long flight... $40 for two adults powered site. There is a pool, the kitchen is small but alright, the bathrooms are nice with heaters in winter and even though you just have 6 minutes of hot water in the shower, the music that is playing makes a nice ambience. The best thing was the food box with leftovers. You could get basic stuff like salt but also muesli. Such a good idea! Would go there again before or after flying!
Hi Helen - thank you for your feedback. Our music selection playing in our facilities blocks are a bit hit with all guests. Great to hear you made the most of our free basket - you would of noticed there is no need to buy salt or cooking oil. Hope to see you again soon.

Old and tied, grotty showers, small dog kennel sized expensive units, sewage smell near veranda, expensive for condition of accommodation.
If you take it away from proximity to airport you wouldn't stay here. Very friendly staff and good food recycle bin.
Hello Goldfinger - sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay with us. Our smaller units are perfect for those who just want a bed for the night and for most of our guests they really enjoyed these unit. I'm sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us but perhaps for your next visit book one of our ensuite cabins or park motels which have all the necessities you may require.

Great for an overnight stop and very close to the airport and campervan hire depots.
Surprisingly quiet with little aircraft or road noise. Easy to find. Good value.
