Very unfriendly owners. Not a good spot to stay. Beautiful place ruined.

Cheap spot to stay, but wifi and showers aren’t included so all you’re paying for is a spot for your van (they put us on a hill so it wasn’t even flat ground), use of their dirty kitchens, and toilets. Maybe it’s because it was a holiday weekend but the facilities were gross. And outdated. The place was overrun with locals and children. Definitely a family friendly spot but not relaxing for travelers and not worth $20 pp a night. Hectic, noisy, and dirty. They also don’t offer refunds lol.

Excellent campsite, close to the river and some short walks in the forest nearby. Owners are friendly and helpful. Showers are hot and decent. Listen for the native birds and wonder at the night sky. The kind of campsite you’re happy to stumble across, planned for 1 but stayed for 2. Swim in the river, walk up to the waterfall (take a packed lunch for fun), you’ll be happy you stayed at Ashley Gorge holiday park.

Such a beautiful spot but ruined by the owner who we witnessed shouting at young children for doing nothing at all. Waving his arms around. Not a nice individual. Very scary for the children involved. Stay well clear of this place as we also noticed a large volume of security cameras around the area which felt like an invasion of privicy.

Great Campsite, all the facilities you need! Very peaceful and only a short walk to the river, definitely a good place to stop in the summer! The owners are lovely, made us feel very welcomed!

One Word: Amazing

We stayed here before our flight home from Christchurch (only 45 min drive) and couldnt have imagined a more peaceful, scenic and friendly place so close to Christchurch. Very friendly camp owners, beautiful kitchen facilities and great wood fired hot showers with token from reception. Loved our short stay and would 100% recommend to anyone!

Yesterday we spent a really nice, quiet and relaxing camp night Michel and Jean Pierre offer an excellent welcome, a little extra for us Jean-Pierre speaks French, thanks to them and good luck

Wonderful camping facility. Lovely location and park layout which was well maintained. Owners are super friendly and helpful. 21$ for solo traveler at a powered spot. Felt very safe here as there was basic area lighting and the camper area was gated off from the public at night. Kitchen was spacious and clean. 2$ washer 3$ dryer (about 20 mins of dryer time). Bathrooms very clean and 1$ for a shower token for 5-6mins of hot water. Came for one night but stayed for 2. Nice mini tramp to a waterfall (1-1.5hr loop) and the river right at the camp behind the tree line.

Awesome campsite. Quiet setting surrounded by trees. Lovely walks which we still did in the rain. Grounds are well maintained and the facilities clean and tidy. Shower token ($1 at shop) lasts just under 5 mins but you can put in more. Warm welcome. Highly recommended.
