Kiwis B & B, near Picton

I have to say a few words about this very luxurious B&B overlooking the deep waters of Mahau sound. It is a few km from Havelock on the scenic road towards Picton, and well signposted with a red kiwi bird and the white swiss cross superimposed.

It is run by Swiss born Conny and her Kiwi husband, Mike. They do everything to the highest standard, and we had a lovely dinner with them, and chatted long into the evening about Mike's travels in Africa, from Kenya to Cape Town.

They have a wild Wiki bird that comes in the evening to peck around their decking area, and we thought we saw a pod of Orca whales jumping around in the sea near some yachts at anchor.

I would recommend anyone coming to use the ferry at Picton, or wishing to explore this region, to come and stay with Conny and Mike. You won't be disappointed - they do things in style!
