This is a beautiful home. Needed some help getting the fireplace going, but Jon came over right away to show me how. Loved it!

Beautiful cosy house which had everything you could want or need. Wonderful holiday in Beautiful Picton

A beautifully presented and well appointed villa. And the spa...A perfect end to the school holidays. Will definiely be back, thank you!

We absolutely adored our stay at Jon and Gaylenes. Their home is warm and cosy, and had the most wonderful touches (wifi engraved into a wooden block, robes hung up in the wardrobe), we loved every bit of this home. Will definitely be back!!!

Great property suited us perfectly, thanks

I doubt there is a nicer holiday home anywhere in NZ! Beautiful, clean, cosy and quiet. We loved our stay here and will be coming back!

Renovated villa comfortably furnished not far from the ferries in a quiet neighbourhood.

The accommodation was like a home rather than a house. It was very clean and tidy was obviously lovingly cared for. We would have no hesitation in staying there again.

We absolutely loved Jon and Gaylene’s home! Convenient to everything, quiet, beautifully decorated, and filled with every amenity you can think of. The gardens are meticulously tended and the outdoor areas a pleasure to be in. A truly amazing stay with lovely, communicative, thoughtful hosts!

Great place, will come back again !!

Beautifully presented, comfortable, spacious and very well equipped. A short easy5min drive into Picton. You will not regret staying here.

We had such a fantastic stay here. Really well cared for and serviced property, great spaces from spa to bbq to front porch, close to a lovey walking track to Picton and had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Lovely house... Everything you need bd more... Clean and comfortable and the spa was an added bonus... Check in and communication with the owner was excellent

Lovely home with all amenities including nice outdoor dining area and spa, at the end of a street so no through traffic. Peaceful and relaxing, enjoyed our stay very much, thank you!

We loved our stay. The spa was a real treat, super comfortable beds, lounge suit etc and gorgeous home. Awesome shower too! We would love to visit again!

Gaylene your home was very clean, warm, inviting and well equipped. My granddaughters enjoyed the outdoor spa pool. Having several tv' s, allowed the adults to watch the rugby, while the children watched other programs. The outdoor/ barbeque space was enjoyed by all the family including the two that visited from the cruise ship that was in Picton for the day. The house is in a quiet area at the end of a street, with only a short drive to the centre of Picton. There is several walking tracks nearby to enjoy. Many thanks for the wonderful stay.

We were very appreciative of Gaylene’s generosity as we needed to change our plans. Then spending a few days in this lovely home we got to appreciate it’s many features and creature comforts. Artfully decorated, comfortable beds, fully functioning kitchen with all utensils, good shower, warmth from wood burner distributes throughout bedrooms, many quiet spots to sit outside in the garden, on the veranda. Tranquil location next to Picton-Waikawa walkway. Highly recommend.

Thanks so much for the relaxing stay, we enjoyed spending time with the family

Great spot, Very comfortable stay everything we needed - highly recommend

We enjoyed the stay, too bad that we didn’t have enough time in Picton. Will recommend this to anyone and will definitely rebook for future trip.

Located close to Picton township this is a very well presented villa property with comprehensive modern amenities. We only needed to stay one night but it suits both short and long term lets. Very good communications with owners - our thanks for a great stay.

A superbly appointed home with incredible paintings and eclectic artwork. Loved the wood fire, the spa pool with TV and the comfy beds. Kitchen has all the modcons. This property has a wow factor - you will be impressed.

The stay was nothing short of perfect. We appreciated the good communication, really nice homey accommodation and cleanliness. The only slightly negative thing I could say is that now me missus added ‘purchase and install hot tub’ to her list of things I’m meant to do.

Well appointed, very comfortable, clean, and warm.

Immaculately presented accommodation (despite the book-a-bach photos looking more professional than most ... they still don't do the property full justice). Very elegant decor - a lot of time, thought, effort (& taste) has clearly gone into it. Warm & cosy on arrival (Gaylene had put the logfire on earlier in preparation ... we really appreciated the gesture) ... all the utensils & household items you could possibly need, very comfortable beds & lounge ... spacious bedrooms & bathroom (& a feeling of privacy/soundproofing between the various bedrooms) ... and, lastly, a very quiet neighbourhood (always an important factor for me) ... we had a great night's sleep. Precisely zero negatives ... 5 out of 5.

The home was very comfortable, warm and had all that we needed for a wonderful weekend away with friends.

This is a home with a lot of loving attention to all the details, spacious, clean.

The house was great that it had 4 bedrooms with queens and single beds and all so comfy. Everyone commented what wonderful beds and a great sleep they had. The log fire was great at night and the spa was a fantastic night activity.
