    About 4 km from the center, so we walked. Both hosts were very friendly and helpful. Great bathroom and the option to use the garden. Unfortunately no dump station (which was also advertised) so we had to drive 6 km to the next dump station. Overall, great and we would come again. We spent two nights and slept very well.

  • I stayed 2 nights at Baskers and Janets place.

    They are the most welcoming and helpful hosts. This is not a classical campground but a wonderful safe place to park your campervan close to the city and have access to a nice outside dining area and the most fantastic bathroom I have had during my travels here in NZ. I will definitely come back.

  • Our stay with Janet and Basker in Auckland was absolutely wonderful!

    We spent our first and last night of our four-week camping trip at their place and both times we felt incredibly welcomed. Upon arrival they greeted us warmly with a cup of tea and shared some great travel tips. They kindly allowed us to leave some of our luggage with them which was a huge help. Their home is very close to the airport, making it a perfect location for travelers. On our last night we enjoyed a lovely evening together, sharing a glass of wine and great conversation. We couldn’t have asked for a better start and end to our trip—highly recommended!
