We stayed one night in Picton before traveling to the north island by ferry and were very pleased with the accommodations at Echo Lodge. The rooms were comfortable and immaculate. I do not think you could find a cleaner place. There is a very nice living room to relax in after going out to dinner. The owners Sharon and Russell... More

Besides being a nice B and B, Sharon and Russell are very friendly and helpful. We discussed our plans and desires with them and Russell gave us some options and suggestions. Then he called around to find the prices and arranged our itinerary for the next day. His suggestion of Lochmarra Bay Lodge was spot on for what we wanted... More

Looking for a place to stay for the night before we caught the ferry to Wellington, Echo Lodge was suggested by one of our previous B & B stops. We are pleased we took their advice because Sharon the new owner was wonderful, a warm friendly welcome with a cup tea/coffee and a lovely chat on the area. It was... More

We totally agree with all the excellent reviews you have received - Echo Lodge is such a charming old house, yet fresh and tastefully renovated. And we'd especially like to thank you for your wonderful hospitality and delicious breakfasts which created a very convivial atmosphere. Thanks Sharon & Russell - can't wait to visit again.

Echo Lodge provides very good accommodation. The owners are friendly, helpful and informative. We stayed there before walk the Queen Charlotte track. WiFi is free. Breakfast is very good and the rooms are very comfortable. The b & b is just a short walk from the centre of Picton
