Fabulous view over the bay and to the mountains beyond. Quiet location a 5 min drive from Picton centre. Our room (no.3) was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. Rachel and her staff are great - we were given a warm welcome on arrival and they were helpful throughout our stay.

Beautiful motel on the bay

The motel was very nice, with rooms opening to a nice lawn with a view of the bay. I have to mention the care and honesty of the staff if this family-run motel. We forgot a piece of jewelry behind and they made sure we got it back via post.
