Met owner of Farewell Gardens in January 2022, she seemed lovely, and we loved the camp ground.

Called and made booking in April and told they had availability for our family of three for early January 2023. My partner and I organised time off work for our dates at Farewell Gardens. Owner contacted us in August to say that there was only a 3m x3m campsite available but that, in her experience, that’s as much as three people usually need. I responded that if we’d known in April that a 3m x3m campsite was all that was available we would have booked somewhere else for our summer holiday. Have been looking forward to our Farewell Gardens holiday all year and now we have to scramble and, hopefully, find somewhere else to stay in Golden Bay for these dates. Total lack of transparency and terrible communication. Definitely wouldn’t recommend.
