    Lowburn Harbour

    1 febbraio 2024, Nuova Zelanda ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    This place is HUGE, was talking to a lady staying here who counted 195 campers here as she walked around, only to have more arrive. We are right beside the Clutha river, that has a small bay with a boat ramp and 2 jetties. We even woke to snow on the hills. One end you will find flush toilets, the other you will find a long drop. It says no tents but there are some. With all rhe campers its still quite. There are rubbish bins here, but not big enough for all the camper so rubbish gets pilwd up next to the bins. So please take your rubbish with you or wait till the guy comes to pickup the rubbish. 2 bars up for spark and wireless nation good.
    No tap water and dump station 5 mins back in Cromwell.    Leggi altro

    Franz Josef, Put on a nice display from the nzmca park for us, nice dumping of snow. We went on the Frans Josef wilderness quad bike tour. Highly reccomend, we had so much fun through the rain forest, big mud puddles and crossed the river. They surply all the gear and it goes for 2 hours so if you are keen check out bookme for great deals.
    Back at camp, its a metal park with rubbish bins, water and dump station. Also short walk to town. We had lunch one day at The Landing, could not fault the service or meal.

    We have just spent a lovely 5 nights at this camp right next to the creek. There are 5 camp spots that are devided by trees with many more places to camp. There are 2 flush toilets her along with a couple of old bbq's. The gravel track in is single lane bet there are places you can move over if need be. A few people come in to pan for gold in the creek which id neat to watch. And yes some did get there dust/ flakes. There is a short walk up along to creek thats nice to do in the bush. No phone service here, wireless nation 2 bars up. Starlink is good.
    This is a great place to stop before heading to the Reefton rally, our mates Tasman Travels joined us here also.

    Reefton Racecourse

    22 febbraio 2024, Nuova Zelanda ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    This stop was for the NZMCA National Rally, our very first rally. As younger members there wasnt really much here for us, but we are keen to try a smaller rally down the track. Would have been nice if more trades jumped on board as well. Theres around 900 mohos campers and caravans here. Was good to see all the rubbish bins around the place. Water on site was nice to top up our water. Saturday was very wet so we stayed in our van but headed over to watch the auctions and wow, some items went for more than they were worth. I took maggie out in her backpack for a walk and we found Bella a lovely little dog we follow on nzmca travelling with pets. Area photos today so we will meet other New Plymouth/ Taranaki members.
    Looking forward to sunday nights black and gold event.    Leggi altro

    North South Holiday Park

    4 marzo 2024, Nuova Zelanda ⋅ 🌬 23 °C

    We would like to thank the friendly team at North South Holiday Park. We dropped our caravan off to get a couple of things done at 8am, we were in the car with our cat Maggie thinking where do we go with her till 2pm, we are from the north island and dont know anyone down the south island, so we rung the camp to see if we could get in then. There cleaners were about to start and would get the cottage cleaned first for us to come in.
    Great service at the desk, the camp is huge, they have cabins, bunk rooms, a cottage, plenty of camper, moho and caravan parks down to tent spaces, . I found 2 dump stations 2 kitchens, 2 laundrys, 2 toilet blocks, theres bbq areas and a large play area for the kids, oh can't forget the heated swimming pool. So if you are looking for somewhere to stay around the Christchurch area but out of the city this is the place to be.    Leggi altro

    7 marzo 2024, Nuova Zelanda ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    First time staying at a winery. Only place they ask you dont park is between the big trees by picnic table and the olive trees so we are out of site for there customers. We dont drink wine but went over for a taste anyways and found one we liked so @ $16 why not we also brought a bottle of red for our friends @ Tasman Travels. We parked towards the main road near the grape vines on a patch of uncut grass for Maggie to play in. We had traffic noise by day by night very little. Pack in pack out here, very little spark cover and wireless nation is fine.
    Had a lovely walk around the vines,    Leggi altro

Phone and wifi cover here is good.Dont forget if you stay here you need to pack in pack out.Leggi altro
