For a camp which only has 30 or so sites I would have thought 3 washing machines, one brand new and two dryers, one for light clothes and a heavier one would have been more than sufficient. Did you tell the proprietor things were not working ? because we have received not one complaint in the past three months. Someone had ripped off one of the lids of the washers, had to find out ourselves, nobody said a word, the lighter dryer has been jammed with something in last couple of days, but not word from campers, this was not a month ago. We cannot fix things if we don't know they are broken, I think this person was disorganised possibly did not like having to wait their turn - we would need a washer and dryer per site to satisfy them. Sandflies are our fault ! Now really that is beyond a joke - they bite everywhere not just at the beach and are usually a sign of impending rain.- every sensible camper carries repellent for any eventuality (and lotion for any areas that do get bitten) This applies for the entire world - if you are living in the outdoors prepare for it !

Hi Singapore Sling,

Thanks for your review of our campground. We were disappointed you only scored us 5/10 though. We thought being off the main road is a positive, as there is less noise and traffic and pollution. We also state we have no dump station, as we are an eco campground we compost waste, but can not allow any chemicals from campervans in it. We also highly recommend a walk through our native habitat as this is why we live here, and it is very rare in this part of NZ. Check out is at 12, so everyone should have plenty of time to explore. Thanks Marcus and Megan.
