Loved our stay here, just across the road from her beach and right on the Kawatiri CycleTrail. The park itself is very well maintained with daily mowing of the grass and bathrooms regularly cleaned. Showers included which was much appreciated. Staff friendly. Will stay again.

Campground is nice and organized. Like that the sites are grass and no gravel. The showers are clean and organized. The kitchen is quite large with lots of burners and sinks! Then it’s right across the road from the beach which is an awesome spot to view the sunset. Would definitely recommend this place to stay when starting or ending your west coast trip!

It’s close to the beach and near to Westport. The park and the facilities have been clean and the shower hot. We haven’t used the kitchen, so we can’t say anything about. The staff was friendly and helpful every time.

It was amazing to watch the weather roll in and along the mountains. Enjoyed a day in westport just down the road. Was great to have the dog welcomed. Didnt even mind the rain, as it was warm and not constant.

Sounds like you had a relaxing stay with us kmock222. Most of the time poeple watch the beach, but the views of the mountain range behind the park is just as amazing to watch. Hope to see you again with your wee pooch.

34 students and 3 staff all looked after very well for 2 nights. Facilities great and the local restaurant [and owners] were brilliant. If you are looking to stay in the Buller area then I would thoroughly recommend this place as a sensible choice.

Thank you Rudi for your review of the Park. Those sunsets are certainly something! In the winter time they set on our beach, great to sit in the hot tubs and watch the sunset too. Also having a friendly bar restuarant in walking distance over looking the ocean is brillant too. Hope to see you again.

One of the best camper parking areas we've stayed at next to a beautiful beach. Quiet area with very nice kitchen, bathrooms and other facilities. Nice hot tubs and kids play area. Cafe/restaurant right down the road. Not too far from town where there are grocery stores and stuff. Best of all is the proximity to the beach.

We stayed here for 4 nights and couldn’t fault the facilities or the staff. Everything is clean and modern. You are just across the road from Carters Beach and the sunsets are amazing. This is the best motor park we have stayed in to date.

Great place to stay .more signs as you are coming into Westport at both ways to advertise your holiday park so people from out of town and overseas no you are there and can come to your lovely holiday park to stay in.

Yes bellarick, we would love more signage too. The local and government laws make it impossible to get. They only allow theirs. But regardless, we are happy you found us whether is was via the internet of local information.
