It is a very quiet and relaxing location, where your hosts Jill and Peter make you feel very welcome in their beautiful home that sits in farmland at the base of the Queen Charlotte Sound. Wonderful place to stay.

From the moment you walk into Hopewell, you get a feeling you are staying somewhere very special. After a fun and scenic little boat ride to the property (which is part of the experience of ‘leaving the world behind’), we were greeted by warm and friendly hosts and staff. We were assisted with our luggage, along a magical short / easy path through the oasis to get to our cottage. With a view to die for, our cottage was perfect in every way, clean and everything we needed (with super comfy beds!). We could tell so much care had been taken to make our stay wonderful. Do yourself a favor and order the pizzas for dinner , homemade by our hosts. They are humongous and made with delish fresh ingredients. We enjoyed them outside on a candle lit table by a toasty fire, finished off with complimentary toasted marshmallows! We changed things up to prepare our own meals on other nights which we had fun preparing in the best shared kitchen / facilities I have ever seen! There is nothing you want for.. it has everything from basic staples to sharp knives.. something you miss during travels ! (Even includes a huge, comfy living room with a toasty fireplace the staff are constantly stoking up !) We also enjoyed freshly baked homemade bread in the morning for breakfast and delicious espressos (we are from Melbourne , so takes a lot to impress us with coffee!!!). After a long journey around the South Island, we chose to take it easy at Hopewell.. easy strolls around the property to enjoy the breathtaking views, took a bike ride, played and swam in the sound shoreline with our toddler, kayaked, read a book in the hammock overlooking pristine landscape, and an evening soak in the hot tub. But you could do as little or as much as you like, with generous hosts available to help you plan activities as you desire. We found Hopewell absolutely magical, where we got lost in relaxation and making beautiful family memories together.

Fast wifi- 80-89 mbps while we were there, and stable (reason we had booked the accommodation, so glad it met expectations). If this is a priority for you/all you need from an accommodation, then definitely book here in Picton.
From our brief interaction, the accommodation owners (Nikki and Gary) seem keen to help and problem solve. I think their service and care is likely reflected by the overall high score of this accomodation on booking.com
Whilst there is some extra info I would have liked to know before hand(see below), the check in process after hours was seamless such that we could get to our room after a long day and go almost directly to bed. This was even with us unexpectedly changing to the later ferry that day and forgetting to inform the team of this delay. Really appreciated them being so on the ball!
Well equipped kitchen area which was relatively clean (some staining on dry food storage shelves/ but this is more wear and tear- not unclean). Great refrigerator system.
Room relatively clean excepting the smell (see below).
