Art Deco No. 2 Apartment is located in Picton. The air-conditioned accommodation is 200 metres from Picton Memorial Park Beach, and guests can benefit from on-site private parking and complimentary... We really enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable, quiet apartment right in the centre of town, close to bars, cafes and restaurants. Also just a short walk to the wharf from where cruises and water taxis to Marlborough Sound leave and also close to the Inter-Islander ferry terminal.
