Perfect Picton stay

Just the best accommodation option for the two of us. Mary was a great host and the stay had everything we needed. A much better option than a tiny motel/hotel room with shared walls. Easy walk to shops, harbour, just fantastic.

Perfect for a stay in Picton

Thank you Marry! Very comfortable and nice. The apartment is in walking distance to the small town Center in Picton and to the watertaxi. You can park directly in front which makes it easy to arrange your luggage while travelling. To the ferry it’s a 3min easy drive which makes the flat suitable for having a good sleep before you take the ferry early

Cozy, simple sleep out.

This was a lovely, well-situated place to spend a couple nights in Picton. Mary responded very quickly and helpfully to all communication. The room was clean and tidy. It would be nice to have a coffee plunger in the accommodation, and a screen for at least one door or window to allow air in but keep the mozzies out. The wi-fi password needs to be re-written clearly in order to make it usable. Thanks again for the lovely stay Mary! :)
