I\u2019m Anke and this adorable furball is my dog Milo.

So we decided to spend the Christmas break travelling across the South Island, exploring new sites and meeting up with friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I ended up choosing Quirky Campers NZ after thoroughly researching all the campervans out there. The quirky style of the vans is totally me and I chose Buzz <strong>(no longer listed) <\/strong>for his looks, size and location (close to Invercargill). The wood interior looked super cute and I liked that the set-up of the bed was a couch-to-bed design instead of the more typical table\/bench set-up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"23084\" src=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23084\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-135x180.jpeg 135w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-45x60.jpeg 45w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-68x90.jpeg 68w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-72B37F49-6D50-4CC1-A7B0-0CDB41C1B7E2-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 300px, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"23085\" src=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23085\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-135x180.jpeg 135w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-45x60.jpeg 45w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-68x90.jpeg 68w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-98E0BC71-514A-4E74-A32E-FFD503EF9A09-1-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 300px, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Planning our trip<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After booking Buzz, I started planning our adventure. I knew I was going to be meeting up with friends so I planned my trip around that. I love using Google Maps in the planning stage as it gives me an idea of where the spots I want to go are located as well as driving times. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After I had a rough idea of the trip I started looking at good places to stay that were dog-friendly since Milo was coming along. I used Campermate for this as they have a pet-friendly filter option and I saved sites that looked good across the Island. I also found a Top 10 site that listed all their dog friendly Holiday Parks which was handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And then it was time to hit the road. Here\u2019s a link to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/edit?mid=1dWdWmcG23_A0j0cD-iiPioz1V0VYskjR&amp;usp=sharing\">route<\/a> we took and a run-down on our itinerary&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Queenstown &gt; <strong>Cromwell<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc71\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f Anke\u2019s Tips: Eat a pie at the Cromwell Bakery<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stay: Lowburn Harbour. Stayed the night freedom camping right outside of Cromwell. Lowburn Harbour is right on the lake, with lots of spots to set up camp. When I arrived it was already quite busy but I still managed to snag a spot on the lakefront. The site has toilets and it\u2019s really close to town, plus it&#8217;s less than a 5 minute drive along the lake to the centre of Cromwell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cromwell &gt; <strong>Staveley<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc3e&nbsp; Milo\u2019s Tips: Stop at Lake Tekapo\u2019s Dog Park!

This parking lot by day has a superloo where, for a few dollars, you can shower, use the toilet, do laundry etc. And we had a surprisingly good night sleep considering it was in town and it was New Years Eve!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also stayed at the Nelson Top 10, which is right outside of town. It\u2019s probably one of the smallest Top 10 parks I\u2019ve seen. Would recommend staying at the back of the campground as it is a bit more spacious and green. They don\u2019t always allow dogs so CHECK before booking!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nelson &gt; <strong>Motueka<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc71\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f Anke\u2019s Tips: Visit Toad Hall, it\u2019s dog friendly and the fresh fruit ice cream is delicious! Day trip to Marahau (skip Kaiteriteri as it is not dog friendly). The base camp for Abel Tasman Kayaks is located at Marahau so I booked a kayak tour. It was one of my highlights and the team also took care of Milo for the day which was amazing! We also took a day trip to Wharariki Beach to see the elephant rock, and on the way stopped at the Ngarua Caves on top of the Takaka Hills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc3e&nbsp; Milo\u2019s Tips: Marahau Beach is dog friendly and it\u2019s a great beach for swimming or lounging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stay: 328 High Street. The only dog-friendly campsite in town during the summer. Since we were staying for a few days I wanted to book in so I didn\u2019t have to worry about finding a place to stay. 328 High Street may be small, but it&#8217;s close to town and feels like you\u2019re in the middle of the fields including morning serenades by pukeko. We both would stay here again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"23089\" src=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-135x180.jpeg 135w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-45x60.jpeg 45w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-68x90.jpeg 68w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-24D9DABE-9280-4BEE-95E5-01ACDC84F701-1-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 300px, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"23090\" src=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23090\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-135x180.jpeg 135w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-45x60.jpeg 45w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-68x90.jpeg 68w, https:\/\/www..com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Anke-63850A1F-F118-47AA-97D7-47D2689625AB-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 300px, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Motueka &gt; <strong>Murchison<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udc71\ud83c\udffb\u200d\u2640\ufe0f Anke\u2019s Tips: Stay longer!
