beautiful views, amazing forest to walk through, and very cute bit of land to set up camp. So much to explore! And really nice hosts, would definitely recommend
Spending the night there was great.Its a quiet place with a beautiful view.Erica and Athol were lovely and really helpful.They offered everything needed and are really helpful when need something or look for places to visit.A great spot to stay
A conservative review. It really depends on what you are looking for. The "bad" or "look out for": - price is 25.87$ all together not 20$ - this isn't suitable for long heavy vehicles (We have about 6m long campervan and it could not fit into designated site. The owner had to open another field. - if you are truly self-sustained with shower and fixed toilet, it is a waist of money coming here - the road leading to the property is gravel and very steep - no cellphone reception, no internet reception - the shower is with a bucket of water, the toilet is just a dump hole (see pictures) The good: - quite and peaceful - song of birds - beautiful nature - host let's you use the wifi
Link for booming does not work...
Beautiful location, had a wonderful time, cheers
Tennis court now fully marked and playable in a lovely setting
A beautiful and peaceful camping spot nestled in lush green farmland. Erica and Athol were really friendly and lovely to have a chat with. We felt relaxed after our stay.
A hidden gem. Come here if you want to stay somewhere really off the beaten track! The spot to camp is on a beautiful paddock with many tuis and other birds singing continuously. There is a sink for washing hands/dishes (the owners bring you water) and a solar/camp shower with walls so you can take the shower naked. We could also lend tennis rockets from the owners and had a private tennis field for our use just next to our van (for free). I'm not sure if I would come here with a big caravan (depends probably on your driving skills), since you have to drive up to the paddock through relatively narrow gate, but we got up easily with our nissan vanette. Such a nice place to wake up to the birdsong!
