Wellington TOP 10 Holiday Park

The campsite is well equipped, with lots of facilities, including laundry and BBQ areas, and the staff are really friendly. It's a solid top 10. The downside is that it's a bit outside Wellington, so getting to Te Papa museum and the CBD isn't ideal, especially if Te Papa is on your list. It really is a must-do.

Everything was clean, and the staff were very friendly. The facilities were top notch: a huge laundry room with a big folding table and ironing stations, though each machine takes $6 in $2 coins; huge showers with a changing area, bench and mirror; and a large kitchen and BBQ area.

The rain was horrific and flooded most of the sites, but luckily we had a massive campervan. The bathrooms and kitchens were super clean, and the amenities were great. There's a games room for the kids and a hot tub you can book for colder or miserable days. As always with a Top10, it was a nice stay. It's a bit farther from Wellington than I'd prefer, but I guess having a holiday park in the middle of a big, growing capital city would be difficult.

The staff were really nice and helpful. I stayed one night in a bunk cabin during the off season, and liked the location, though traffic can get loud in this fairly busy area. The cabin felt homely, with a good-sized table and stool for eating. The metal bunk beds squeaked a lot, and bedding wasn’t supplied. The door locks by itself when you shut it, so don’t leave your key inside.
