Amazing views and a friendly host.
It’s their back garden, not really a campground. Nonetheless, the views are great, appropriate amount of space and VERY clean facilities. There’s a shower, toilet and 2 sinks (one for bathroom, one for cleaning dishes). The water is clear and great for drinking. There are also 3 sockets if you need to charge your electronics.
Keep in mind: the driveway to the garden is very steep and you have to turn 90 degrees while in the middle of the hill. Definitely doable for a car and maybe minivan, not too sure about a camper.

Amazing manager of the campsite!
The campsite is very simple and has everything you would need: hot shower and a bathroom.
We got stuck on the way and arrived quite late but were accepted no problem. And the lights in the campsite turn off during the night, we saw the best night sky in NZ so far.
All in all: amazing value.
