The room was so cozy and comfortable it was hard to get up but the smell of the fresh pastries they had for us for breakfast helped lol. Their three course breaky was the best we had in all of NZ. Amazing stay!

The spacious studios and apartments at Harbour View feature a fully equipped kitchen or a kitchenette. The living areas offer a flat-screen satellite TV with 50+ satellite channels and a CD player. Some offer a balcony or patio. A washing machine and dryer are available on-site in the communal laundry.

The view was amazing and the room was really nice and clean. The only thing I would say is the parking is a little tough. I would highly recommend this place.

    This house is a good size for a large family or two families on holiday. The kitchen was modern and the pantry staples were helpful for cooking. the bedrooms were a good size, although a little old. We liked the garden for the kids and that it was placed really far back off the main road so we felt they were safe. It was a very quiet only a 2 min drive from the main street of PIcton. Plenty of hot water in the shower and bath tub and as we live in Australia, the kids found the carpeted bathrooms a hilarious novelty.

    I loved the room, the warmth, friendliness and hospitality of the owners and their two kids, plus dog and cats. They have a beautiful garden. The hosts went out of their way to provide information on the local area and suggest activities. They were amazing and the continental breakfast was delish.

    We loved this retro, lockwood, family bach. It has an excellent layout for a family and the setting and views were spectacular. Tuis fed on fax flowers right beside the deck. Everything was really clean and there were plenty of dishes and utensils for cooking Xmas. It is a welcoming sort of place.
