Fabulous place in Picton
Great attention to detail and comfort. Very comfortable bed indeed as it is firm and means you don’t have problems of your partner disturbing sleep. Tracer’s warm welcome is rare to experience these days from other managers at most establishments.

We love how friendly Tracee is and how welcoming she is with my Service Dog Molly. There was a bit of confusion over payment as Expedia had already taken payment out of our account. However we managed to get it sorted.
