Fodor's Expert Review Sennen House

9 Oxford St., Picton, Marlborough, 7220, New Zealand

Just a 1-km (½-mile) stroll from downtown Picton is this white, peak-roofed 1886 villa, with verandas overlooking 5 acres of lush landscaping and bush and suites and apartments equipped with carved wooden bedsteads, stained glass, rich upholstery, and brass fixtures. The spotless bathrooms have heated towel bars and hair dryers. Owners Richard and Imogen Fawcett bring a yummy continental breakfast hamper to your door each morning.

PROS
