Lake Opuha
4.5/5
A good and quiet lakeside site.
Not busy, only 1 other campa there, on a day when there were 30 tents and campervans visible across the lake at Bennett’s Road. No facilities so must be self contained.

Slab Hut Creek Campsite
4.5/5
Very quiet, about a km down a gravel road from the highway.
Nicely sited beside a lovely little river.

Kawatiri Beach Reserve – Westport
3.5/5
Spectacular beach, clean toilet, but the official space allowed for camper vans is small, the night we stayed there ended up being 23 vans, close to touching!

South Island ▷ Canterbury ▷ Hanmer Springs ▷
Hanmer Springs TOP 10 Holiday Park
3.0/5
Mediocre campervan site, spaces were cheek to jowl with no privacy screens/hedges/trees between.
Generally not as good quality as most Top 10s. Appeared a bit run down .

South Island ▷ Marlborough ▷ Havelock ▷
Pelorus Bridge Campground
5.0/5
One of the great experiences in non powered campervan sites.
We stayed on a grassy terrace right beside the river, site well maintained and groomed. River noise overnight was terrific - it rained heavily during the night, and the river doubled in volume! The walks are wonderful, part of the circle track is a part of Te Araroa, the walking trail that goes the length of the country (their website, teararoa.co.nz, offers downloadable maps and Trail guides, well worth the download)
