Smiths Farm Holiday Park

The family-run Smith’s Farm Holiday Park is located just 30 minutes from the Picton ferries in the picturesque Marlborough Sounds. I love staying here when travelling from Picton to Queenstown. This campground is set amongst a working farm in an idyllic, grassy-green spot. Welcoming hosts, onsite friendly farm animals, and a glow worm grotto make it feel extra-special. If you feel like exploring a bit further afield, you can do a day hike on the Queen Charlotte Track, go kayaking in the Marlborough Sounds, or sample the local speciality—green-lipped mussels—from the Mussel Pot in Havelock.
