Beautiful camp site, loved our stay here! Clean facilities, hot showers, yes you have to pay $2.00 but it’s the only way the owners to preserve their precious rain water and to be honest we loved how off grid the place felt, easy to absorb yourself into nature rather than staying at camps that feel soulless! Nicky the owner is fab, very knowledgeable about the area and clearly loves her home and its surroundings, breath of fresh air! Definitely recommend staying here!

I dont understand what these negative reviews are about. I stayed here for two nights as a solo traveller and this place blew me away. I instantly felt welcomed by Nicky when she checked me in, gave me great local reccomendations for walks and activities. As for the campsite, the facilities are cleaned thoroughly everyday and this goes to show. $2 for a 2 minute shower, which is understandable because this place runs off rainwater. Best campsite in the South Island, I will 100% be back!

فشل كبير إذا لم يكن لديك، تجنب هذه الحديقة. تحتاج إلى دفع 50 NZD لكل شخص في الليل، في الأساس لنفسك. تحتاج إلى دفع إضافيًا للبضائع 2NZD لمدة 2 دقائق، من بينها يستغرق دقيقتين لتبدأ المياه الساخنة في تدفق. الحديقة والمساحات مجهولة. لا يوجد ماء شرب، تحتاج إلى إزالة الخلايا الخاصة بك. هناك علامات في كل مكان أنك لا تستطيع مسح الماء. لضمان هذا النوع من المال كنت أتوقع شيئًا مختلفًا. كنت مسافرة في كل جزيرة شمالية، كنت في العديد من المناطق الحديقة وهذا هو واحد من الأسوأ.

“Thank you for your feedback. Our sites are priced at $25 per person per night, rather than per vehicle. As a small rural eco-conscious camp, our rates reflect maintained grounds, clean facilities, and the costs of operating responsibly in a remote location. All water at Farewell Gardens is collected rainwater and is filtered and UV treated so it is safe for drinking and washing. Showers are metered to help conserve this precious resource and ensure water remains available for all guests. Hot water timing can vary slightly depending on demand. Cleanliness is very important to us. Facilities are cleaned and checked daily; however, as with any shared amenities, they can become untidy between cleans depending on guest use. Being located in a rural coastal environment, occasional insects may also be present despite regular cleaning. Due to our remote location, we ask guests to take their rubbish with them and to conserve water. These practices help protect this special environment. Farewell Gardens is best suited to guests who appreciate a simple, nature-focused camping experience rather than resort-style facilities. We wish you safe travels.”

هذه الحافلة لا تستحق 50 دولارًا ، أنا لا أوصي به لأي شخص. ليس هناك مياه شرب ، فكرة موثوقة بيئية تعني = الاستحمام لـ 2 دولار لمدة 2 دقائق ، البقعة والغبار ، الفئران في الحافلة ، الكثير من العلامات حول ما لا يسمح به ، والأهم من ذلك ، من الأفضل عدم الذهاب هنا على الإطلاق.

Very disappointed with this place. Paid $50 for the two of us which is very steep considering you then have to pay for showers ($2 for 2 minutes !?), there are no bins apart from green waste, and one toilet between everyone. Waste of money, won’t be coming back.

Good location, close to many walks like Cape Farewell and Wharakiri Beach.

“Thank you for your kind review. We’re glad you enjoyed the location — it’s a special part of Golden Bay, and having Cape Farewell and Wharariki Beach so close makes exploring easy. Safe travels and we hope to see you again.”

Big pitches, and close to Farewell Spit and Wharariki Beach. However, every wall of the communal rooms covered in passive aggressive signage and rules. Basic facilities, and 2$ for 2 min showers. Unclear what makes this site eco-friendly, besides rainwater and compost?

Beautiful camp at the base of Farewell Spit! Owners are fabulous and very knowledgeable of the area. Facilities are great and lovely and clean. Very homely feel, perfect time to visit as it’s not too busy but can imagine they get booked out over the summer! We had a lovely tent site and woke up to the sound of the birds singing, beautiful and very peaceful… thanks for having us! We will be back!

“Thank you for such kind words. We’re so pleased you enjoyed the tranquillity, the birdlife, and the homely feel of the camp. It was lovely to have you here, and we’ll be ready to welcome you back anytime.”

“Kia Ora! thank you for your lovely review, it was a pleasure to meet you both. Hope you enjoyed your fishing too! Look forward to seeing you next year, safe travels.”

تكلفة ضئيلة للكثير من الأمور التي تحصل عليها، 35 دولارًا على موقع غير قوي (1 شخص) وبدون شك أنك لا تزال بحاجة إلى دفع زجاجة. إطلالات غير عادية على الجانب السريع.

“Kia Ora، شكراً لك على الإقامة معنا. مواقعنا الخضراء هي على مستوى جيد ومسافة واحدة فقط من الطريق على الطريق من الشاطئ، مثالية للغاية للذهاب إلى الجلوس وتناول القهوة صباحاً! أسعارنا داخل سعر معظم المناطق الأخرى في المنطقة، أقل بكثير من معظمها، من الخجل أنك لم تتمكن من الوصول إليّ وتشارك في أفكارك، أنا دائما سعيد بتفسير ومساعدة!”
