North Island ▷ Waikato ▷ Matamata ▷
Pohlen Park freedom camping area
4.0/5
Note: Our directions were wrong.
Entry is via Western St.
No issues at all. Pulled in late and left early. It’s basically just a carpark but a perfectly fine place to stay for the evening if you’re looking for a free spot in Matamata. Very quaint little area.

Camp Elsdon
3.0/5
Local animals are cute and the amenities work fine but feels a little like you’re camping in someone else’s backyard.
Lots of semi-permanent residents there. Everyone we encountered was friendly though.

Cuba Street Motorhome Park
2.5/5
Good in a pinch considering overnight campervan parking options are limited around Wellington but spaces are very tight though and there are no amenities.
Local bars and restaurants are basically on your doorstep which is a plus or minus depending how quiet or busy you like it.
Wouldn’t recommend staying more than one night.

No amenities but the area is nice.

National Army Museum
4.5/5
A great spot.
Felt very secure and the tanks at the front of the museum are fun. Minimal amenities but would still recommend if you need to stay the night while in the area.
