Paul, 1-night trip

Loved the room tucked away and private with great facilities for my dog. Therewas a cold spell while i was there and the bathroom was pretty cold, but the shower was excellent. Host was great, there when needed. Close to food outleys and supermarket. Great night in with netflix and other digital services. Would stay again.

10/10 Excellent

Great value in Picton for a nights stay before/after the ferry with super friendly hosts. A bit noisy due to location right on the main road, but quiets down at night.
Jorma, 1-night trip

Nice guesthouse

Tracee was super helpful and we were able to drop off luggage early so we could go explore. Nice guesthouse, decent sized room and bathroom. Bed made noise every time you moved but otherwise it was a good stay.

10/10 Excellent

Loved it! Room 3 was clean, well equipped, and perfect for our stay. Only a 10 minute walk to downtown which was very convenient. The host, Tracee, was absolutely fantastic and really goes above and beyond to make your stay the best. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in Picton.

8/10 Good

The room had everything you could need . We had the pet friendly accommodation, only one available at the time of booking, we did not have a pet with us This would be perfect for anyone travelling with their dog We ate in the Irish pub twice for dinner , which was very good
Trish, 2-night trip

Lovely hosts and lovely property, likely one of the best, if not the best in Picton. Make sure that you can carry your luggage up about 5 steps, there is no ramp.

Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved it at Top of Town. Tracee was very welcoming and the bedroom and ensuite very, very, very comfortable. Spotlessly clean with good hot drink selection. Tracee was very helpful in every way. There was no option for breakfast but many choices in short walk.
