    Stayed there last night. Unfortunately I don’t think it’s been maintained since last summer. Grass is knee height which means bugs everywhere. The ground is uneven no matter where you park. Only good thing was a local Weka hanging around.

    Beautiful and quiet camp side. The toilet is clean. 5 minutes walk to the beach. One of the best drives ever .

    It's not that close to the sea (several fields away, which is a great shame give the stunning possibilities at this site). The field itself slopes to an uncomfortable degree, except for one area. If you are are the second group to arrive you therefore sleep on the slope. Also DOC either deliberately or inadvertently have let cows graze in the adjacent fields so there is a fairly active population of big flies buzzing around.

    Agree with previous comments. Lovely warm water for swimming but watch out for the giant sting Ray!

    We spent ages looking for this camp ground. The road ended with a closed gate which said private property.

    Such a beautiful campsite with an awesome view of the Marlborough Sounds and very quiet too! Pretty long but beautiful drive. Well worth it!
