Wake up between the vines. On a working farm, beside a river, or above a bay you would never have found on your own. Campable opens up private land across New Zealand to motorhome and campervan travellers. Hundreds of sites on vineyards, farms, orchards, sports clubs and resorts — bookable in seconds from your phone. Some hosts will come out and walk you round the vines. Others simply leave the gate open and let you get on with it. Both are the point. No queueing for a numbered bay. No hunting for somewhere legal at dusk. Just a quiet paddock and a view you did not have to share. FIND SOMEWHERE TO STAY • Browse every site on the map, or switch to a list as you travel • Filter for self contained or non self contained vans • See photos, nightly price, facilities and house rules before you commit • Search ahead for your whole trip, or find tonight's stay from the road BOOK IN SECONDS • Check real availability and book instantly — no waiting on a reply • Pay securely in the app, with more than one card saved if you like • Keep your bookings, dates and directions together in one place • Get your host's phone number when you book, so you can reach them if plans change STAY ON REAL PLACES, NOT IN CAR PARKS • Every host is checked before their land goes live • Reviews from travellers who have actually stayed there • Working vineyards, farms and orchards — places you would need an invitation to reach Campable started because New Zealand is full of extraordinary places to park up for the night, and almost all of them are on land you would never get to see. This is the invitation. Download Campable and stay somewhere worth remembering.
