Gateway to the Marlborough Sounds
Just ten minutes from the Picton town centre and across the road from the redeveloped Picton Marina, our Picton holiday park is ideally situated for exploring everything this remarkable area has to offer.
The inter-island ferry docks at Picton, and it’s a great base for cruises, kayaking, swimming, winery tours and day trips. Walk the Queen Charlotte Track or hire a bike and take your pick of some great rides suitable for everyone from beginners to pros.
Visit an island bird sanctuary, swim with dolphins, watch for whales and meet a living fossil. Or take it easy and stroll around the town, marina and foreshore. Check out the world’s oldest merchant ship, meet some amazing locals at the aquarium and relax with a flat white or cold beer at one of the many local cafes and bars.

Probably the very best Top 10 we’ve ever stayed at.
Helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant staff. Site was everything we could have wanted sparkling clean amenities - 2 hair dryers in the ladies. Music playing in the bathrooms a plus, as was the coffee in the morning. Can’t recommend it highly enough. Easy walk over the bridge into town. A must stay place.

Very good campsite!
A bit more expensive we were $118 for 2 nights with electric but you definately get what you pay for, very clean toilets and showers, laundry facilities plus drying areas, big kitchen area, bbqs TV and games room and a pool. Very close to the town center so you can leave your van and go for a drink and stunning surroundings. The only thing for me was there wasn't enough showers for the size of the site.

Enjoued our stay here.
Great facilities. Multiple toilets/ bathrooms/ laundry areas. Two sky TV's available 24/7. The games room is pretty cool. And a nice big kitchen area. The male owner is a bit odd, walked into the women's bathroom twice during my stay, at weird times, saying "clean up" or something similar. Felt a bit uncomfortable but nothing major. Would still come back.

Our usual stop before/after the ferry. 2 nights.
Friendly reception.
Some pitches are close to trees which effectively shortens the pitch. If you have a long and/or high vehicle let them know.
Push buttons for the showers, outside the cubicles.
Close to town via the marina. We saw a few rays in the water, one just resting right underneath where we stood.

The people there were filling in for the owners and were very obliging. The facilities were nice and clean. Here is a good bit of advice, if you find chestnuts on the ground, just up above the spa pool complex, DON'T eat them. They look like the regular sweet ones but they are horse chestnuts and poisonous! Being a bit of a scavenger, I collected and cooked some up, one bite fixed me. Looking on the net it was a big no-no. A handy place to stay to catch the ferry.

Friendly check in lady.
Campsite much smaller and older facilities than Kaikoura, as many have said, but it still had a nice feel. Some complimentary WiFi. We stayed for the location - just a 10-15 minute stroll to town through the marina which is very pretty. Picton is a lovely little place.

Welcoming staff and pretty large pitch for our motorhome (far more spacious than say, Top 10s in Dunedin,Te Anau and Queenstown).
Pleasant site with good facilities, within fairly easy walking distance of town - and, obviously, handy for ferry to N Island. We enjoyed our time here.
