A campervan is the ideal way to explore New Zealand’s beautiful places, experiencing unique attractions and adventures while enjoying outstanding natural scenery.

Being motorhome enthusiasts, we know the sorts of things that make all the difference in turning a holiday into a great experience. Airport pick-up? No problem, even for the 11pm flight. Breakfast before you head off in the morning? Our pleasure. You want to hire some musical instruments to take with you? We can help there too. We also provide a welcome package of juice and snacks to see you on your way, knowing that sometimes you don’t want to stop at the first shop you see.

Hi, we’re Lyn and Rod of Christchurch, New Zealand, owners and hosts of Southern View Motorhomes. We’ve been employed and self-employed over the years in real estate, the food industry, driving and maintenance. This has given us skills in organisation, maintaining homes and equipment, catering and entertaining. In 2007 we finally had the sense to combine these with our passion for motorhomes and campervans to offer you personal service and a great start to your exploration of New Zealand.

If you are looking for advice or ideas we’re also happy to help. We’ve travelled all over the South Island and through most of the North Island and can give you first-hand advice on where to go, how to get there, and a few “must-sees” that you’ll remember for a long time. We can tell you the places where other people in motorhomes like to camp, and point you to things you might take many visits to find. Our vans sleep 2 or 4 comfortably, and are fully fitted-out with kitchen equipment, bedding, etc – all you need are personal possessions. Our minimum hire is 5 days and we offer discounts for hires of 3 weeks or more.
