Feb 2012 		Retreat Inn  - Reviewed by Evelyn ad Mary
02 Sep 2008 If you are planning to include Picton in your travelling in New Zealand you could not do better than stay with Alison and Geoff at the “Retreat Inn”. Their lovely house with its delightful garden provides the ideal place from which to explore Picton and the north end of the South Island. From our arrival off the ferry from Wellington for a two-day visit, to our final leave taking after a brief stop in Picton on our return journey, we could not have been made more welcome or have been better looked after. As hosts, Alison and Geoff really go the extra mile. They obviously enjoy the company of their visitors and are ready to make time to get to know them. We left Picton feeling that we had made friends whom we would hope to meet again, either in New Zealand or in Scotland. Mary and Evelyn Edinburgh 2008

Feb 2012 		Retreat Inn  - Reviewed by Edith and Ron Reese
We've enjoyed the hospitality of Alison and Geoff in 2005, 2008 and now 2011. We can't say enough good things about this B&B and our hosts - wonderfully caring and cheery folks. It is a peaceful lodging so that you feel as if you are in the country, yet only a short walk to Picton for dining and activities. Geoff is at the ready to transport any traveler "downtown" if you're without a car or need to leave the car with them. Makes a great spot for Queen Charlotte Track trampers. Scrupulously clean rooms and very comfortable mattresses, even an under-sheet blanket if the weather is chilly. Tasty breakfasts, often with fellow guests at the table for sharing travel experiences. The area has so many attractions that even our 4 nights in 2011 left us wanting to return again to Picton and to Retreat Inn. Edith and Ron

Feb 2012 		Retreat Inn  - Reviewed by Jean and Philip
February 2012 Thanks for a delightful stay in your beautiful house. So peaceful and the view from our bedroom was great - loved all the tree ferns and agapanthus. Philip was envious of the boat, radio controlled model planes and helicopters. Only wished we could have stayed longer. Best wishes Jean & Philip, Lymington, Hampshire UK

Feb 2009 		Palm Haven  - Reviewed by Tom, An, Robert and Chris
We received such a warm welcome and immediately felt comfortable with some appertizers and a local wine during a chat with our host. We enjoyed the nice and cosy interior of our rooms and had a delicious breakfast. We'd return every weekend if it wasn't that far from Belgium!

Mar 2008 		Koromiko Homestead  - Reviewed by Jane Horlings
Hosts Ian and Pat made our stay here very enjoyable. Their homestead is off the main road a short way from either Picton and Blenheim. It is comfortable, immaculate, in a lovely, serene setting, with internet access in a little lounge. We enjoyed getting to know our hosts over drinks and appetizers on the deck in the garden. We actually stayed 2 days, separately, with a trip to Abel Tasman in between. So glad we stayed here, would highly recommend to others!

Mar 2008 		Grandvue  - Reviewed by MALCOLM WOOD
I stayed in 32 different B&B's during my two month stay on north and south islands and Grandvue was the best. The welcome from Rosalie and Russell was terrific and so was the breakfast. Don't be put off staying here for two or three days, Picton is not just a ferry port, the area has a lot to offer. Thanks again Malcolm Wood.
