Something a little different, a huge area where you can stop and set up wherever you like.

Plenty of clean long drop toilets, fresh water and a minutes walk to the sea across white sands.

Managed by Ray and Cindy, very pleasant hosts. Cost $13 pp a night. We were provided with a rubbish bag and told we could dispose of that and recycled stuff at the exit gate on the way out.

No power but there are hot and cold showers. Very nice.

What a lovely camp, helpful and friendly management and staff, nice clean abloutions and amazing views.

The sites we had all had their own grey water drain, water supply and power, magic.

I can not understand whingers that cry on about camp fees, hey if you’re that poor go camp in a farmers paddock, I’m pleased I don’t have you for a neighbour. Get over it

I struggle with cheap skates that would moan if something cost a dollar, you don’t deserve to camp in New Zealand if you can’t open your wallet, you’ll die the richest moaner in the cemetery.

Having got that off my chest.

A great place, 2019 and still $10 pp for a power site with toilet and hot showers available.

You MUST go to the Caltex petrol station first and get it sorted, then it’s a breeze and a great place to stop over.

Moaners not needed or wanted, be positive and appreciative of our beautiful country, not destructive.

This motor camp cares about their campers, Martinborough is suffering bad drinking water at the moment, the camp has a full mobile water tanker on site for campers, well done.

Lovely and clean facilities and sites, good price if you’re a TopTen member and use the discount.

Lovely people in the office, highly recommended.

A lovely clean, friendly camp with great facilities, right by the rolling surf.

$44 a night, nice lady at reception, we stayed here two years ago and I am pleased the standards and cleanliness continue, Most certainly 10/10

A very nice camp apart from our caravan site was very boggy, still that’s life.

Friendly staff, $31.50 for two on a power site with NZMCA discount. Clean toilets and showers.

I loved all the massive eels and the biggest would have been so welcome in my smoker but the eel police have a sign up No Fishing, lucky eels and trout, haaaa haaa.

Yes I agree, the woman who served us in the office had attitude and the personality of a zombie, it was like she didn’t want to be there and I wish the same!

However, the camp was lovely, spacious and apart from a groundsman who mowed the lawns the entire time we arrived until almost dark, we enjoyed the quail running around.

$74 for two nights, two adults on a power site up on the hill very near ablutions.

All very clean, quiet and nice.

Despite some negative reports on this fantastic website, I was beginning to think maybe we'll pass this camp by, but I'm pleased we didn't.

We've never been here before but will definitely come again. Jenny Barlow greeted us and husband Harry guided us on his quad to our site on the hill. Yes, he wants you to park just so, he's that sort of a guy, but he was very friendly and we treated him as our host. We had a fun exchange of banter over thirty minutes before setting up our caravan. There were friendly tame goats tethered around the camp eating up the grass on the banks where the mower couldn't reach. Yes, some of the the camp facilities are a little tired and could use some extra TLC, the owners have been here 23 years and I guess they are a little over it, as I would be.

Realise that you are camping for a couple of days or just over night, so make the most of your stop over and quit moaning about the little things, have a wine and enjoy the fact you are alive and enjoying this beautiful moment in time.

The harbour views are wonderful, the fee of $20 per person for a power site with water is very competitive. No wi-fi, so..... buy your own hotspot device if you need wi-fi, I have.

A friendly lady at reception, cost $88 for three nights which is good, no discount for NZCA members.

You have to buy wi-fi if you want it. Facilities are a bit rumpty, quite a lot of permanent campers and their below standard old heaps of rubbish caravans and buses spoiling the scene. Despite there being two large NO FISHING signs by the stream, I saw a woman standing there with a fly rod, then she disappeared down stream a little to do whatever! There were heaps of eels, trout and ducks there, back to nature, very nice.

A lovely secluded camp, each caravan site has its own little unit consisting of a shower, toilet and handbasin, outside water and power supply and your own dump station, amazing, I've never seen that before

. $40 for two adults, good price. Highly recommend it.

A lovely place, with a discount it was $41 a night for two adults, we were told to park where we liked so we went right next to the boat ramp.

A lovely place, with a discount it was $41 a night for two adults, we were told to park where we liked so we went right next to the boat ramp. The tide was full and came right up to the grass and went out a real long way by low tide, not much in the way of shellfish. The camp facilities were nice and clean and the boss was friendly, it was a pleasant three day stay. There's a good equipment shop outside the camp with everything you could want, hardware, food, drinks, bait etc

DON'T miss out going to the salmon farm down the road, catch your own salmon and pay $22 a kg for it, they will smoke it or you can take it away and do your own which is what we did, yum!

A lovely camp, Dianne made us most welcome and wangled things so we could park up our 8 metre caravan on a site, they seem to cater more for camper vans and smaller caravans.

Very idyllic and as to one review here..... WHAT road noise? It is a lovely peaceful spot. Top marks.
