Okay2stay
Okay2stay is for folk who are travelling in self-contained motorhomes and are passionate about buying local food and wine. Folk who
don't need to spend every night in an expensive campground and are prepared to sometimes get off the well-worn tourist route.
Hosts are mainly small producers of yummy food and world-class wine but also include rural cafes and experiences. Full contact details of hosts is available on sign up and each host is personally chosen and regularly visited by Colleen and Dave from Okay2stay.
Please phone or email your host ahead to make sure it is okay to stay (usually at least 24 hrs) and notify your host if your plans change. Arrive in business hours and show your Okay2stay ID. Hosts do not supply toilets, showers or electricity - just a safe and unique place to park. Make a purchase from your host (remember how much you are saving on campground fees) and be considerate by removing all rubbish. You are solely responsible for your safety and that of your party at all times.

“What a hidden gem of a place this is. Great wine tasting with the owner, who is so lovely and welcoming. The vineyard is only small and makes the experience better for it. Park up alongside the vines ..." Rebecca 2025
