Whanganui River Top 10 Holiday Park

In terms of entertainment for kids under 12 years old, who still act like children - the heated swimming pool, slide and jump pad is a plus for any kid that is active and a plus for the parents wanting to chill out whilst still watching their children from the comfort of the riverside units or non riverside units. The mattresses in the units left much to be desired by, not very comfortable - you aren't there to sleep comfortably apparently - I have stayed in the family cabins, if you are there in summer it is best to bring your own fan as they get very warm and it's hard to say if it would be safe to keep the door open whilst sleeping. We took one but the riverside units weren't as hot, as more windows to open :) It is far away from the town but we like that. Less sirens and cars and people. We didn't like the bathroom light and fan that stayed on for 10 minutes - not fun in the early hours of the morning - I do think this could be rectified - even for 5 minutes?! Also don't forget to clear the filter of the fan since you draw so much attention to it - we also had no shower gel - it wasn't replaced - wasn't an easy process to rectify this but we got there in the end.

Very good grounds with nice big sites. Very good facilities and everything well looked after and clean. Highly recommended

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the camp. We stayed in a self contained unit which was fresh, clean and well equipped. The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. My husband enjoyed his cafe-style coffee sold at reception. We are already planning our next visit and would definitely recommend to others. Power boat racing on the river was a nice surprise!
