Es war einfach großartig. Jill und Peter haben uns sehr warmherzig empfangen. Wir fühlten uns gleich sehr willkommen. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber und extrem gemütlich. Wir hatten eine eigene Terrasse und man ist auch willkommen, den wunderschönen Garten mitzubenutzen.Es wurde wirklich an alles gedacht. Ein Ort um sich wohlzufühlen. Wir können diese Wohnung nur empfehlen und würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

We were so lucky to find the Owls Rest. It far exceeded our expectations. The hosts were lovely people. The room was so cosy and clean and we loved the Owl theme. There were tea and coffee making facilities. Also cooking facilities, although we didn't use them. Also some nice biscuits and tea, coffee, milk. Even some lavender pillow spray. There was a nice seating area outside in the pretty garden. It was close to the start of a great walk, we walked a couple of hours along the Queen Charlotte Track and back again. It's close enough to the ferry at Picton too. We highly recommend The Owls Rest
