We were in Picton in autumn and it was quite cold and rainy during our visit. John's place is quaint and a step back in time. He is very responsive with info prior to the stay and during the visit. Because of the outdoor temps, the apartment unfortunately did not have adequate heat. This made it a a bit uncomfortable temperature-wise and to keep the heat in we needed to keep all the curtains closed which made it dark inside. This apartment would be better in good weather with its nice porch and second floor balcony.
