Picton Tasman Holiday Parks
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.

Kitchen was well equipped and clean. Bathrooms were clean and free 7 minute shower. Good location if getting ferry from Picton or touring wineries.

Has changed from Top10 to Tasman.
Continues to be an excellent facility. Great location being only minutes from the ferry and town centre. Always be our place to stay in Picton. Bonus for us was being pet friendly at that time of the year.

Easy place to stay for an early morning ferry ride.
Everything was very clean and staff were friendly. Don’t miss the bakery in town that opens up at 6:00 am.

We arrived at midnight with the last ferry and booked in advance.
There was a note for us at the entrance where to stay. As all Top10 parks there were a lot of facilities. Showers were clean, though a bit old.

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.

Close walk to the harbor and to downtown to have a pint or two. Friendly and helpful staff. Multiple different types of sites, even non power van parking.

Depending on the site you could be packed right on top of your neighbour.
Had to close our windows and use earplugs to drown out the snores. However bathrooms are spotless and it’s a ten minute walk into town. Nice staff.

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.

Stayed in a self-contained flat.
Absolutely amazing, but also a good price. Very friendly staff.

Much nicer than the places in Picton.
Quieter, cleaner, and a short walk from a pretty marina with a decent restaurant. Just 3km from ferry docks too.

The sites were small and it cost $50 a night.
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.
