Enchanted Escape is a recently renovated guest house in Picton, where guests can make the most of its garden and bar. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 2 km from Picton Memorial Park Beach. This is a dream property with amazing hosts. You feel welcomed the moment you enter the gate. They have created such cozy spaces for guests and the provide great amenities like coffee and tea, toast and other small breakfast items. I appreciated the small fridge in the room, pressure in the shower and how quiet it was at night. I also walked to town and it was easy and fun. There’s a lot to do in this part of the world! Thanks for the great stay Lisa and Andy!

Boasting garden views, Boathouse Apartments features accommodation with patio, around 600 metres from Picton Memorial Park Beach. The property has sea and mountain views, and is 600 metres from Shelley Beach. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station. This might be the nicest place we have stayed since beginning extended travel in retirement. It was a bit more than our budget, but we cooked our dinners to compensate, which worked out well as we really enjoyed being there in the evenings. The photos do a great job of showing the large bedroom, bathroom, and full kitchen. It's decorated like a home rather than a hotel, and has a large deck with a lovely view of the marina. It does take 10-15 minutes to walk into town, depending on your destination, but it's a lovely walk. We were able to arrange a ride into town with our luggage the morning we departed as we had already dropped a car off.

Situated in Lochmara Bay, Lochmara Lodge - 20mins by boat from Picton features free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a garden, a terrace and a bar.

Some units have a balcony and/or a patio with sea or mountain views. We loved everything about our stay at Lochmara Lodge. We stayed for two nights with our family and It was a little bit of a splurge, but did not disappoint! The location was stunning, the fact that you got there by water taxi made it remote and uncrowded, and there were plenty of things to do (hike, paddleboard, kayak). Also, the food was delicious and the staff was accommodating and helpful.
