Jugglers Rest - Accommodation with Atmosphere
Relax or Play - Fire Shows, Workshops & Friendly Staff
 
Picton's smallest hostel (with beds for just 16 people) is BIG on comfort.
Our lovingly renovated historic villa is an easy 10 minute stroll from the centre of town.
 
Small and cosy with all beds fully made up (no bunks), we provide every comfort for your stay including: 
 
* Superfast internet & wi-fi
* Organic fruit & veggie garden produce
* Free breakfast, tea, coffee, herbs & spices
* Quality book exchange
* Use of bikes, musical instruments & juggling toys
* A fire bath under the stars
* Workshops in poi & staff spinning 
* Real log fire and heaters
* Gas barbeque & picnic table
* Information/advice/bookings on local activities
  AND an atmosphere that can't be beaten!
 
Situated in a quiet residential area, far enough to avoid the noise of the port & trains, but close enough to easily access all pretty little Picton has to offer by foot, our location gives you the best of both worlds.
With shady decks, comfy chairs, bean bags, hammocks and sunny chill-out areas in lush gardens, either relax, play, learn or simply sit back & watch the amazing fire and glow shows at night.
 
There are  walking tracks right outside the door in the Esson Valley, and we can help arrange trips out into the beautiful Marlborough Sounds and Marlborough's famous award winning vineyards.
 
All facilities (fully equipped kitchen, lounge, bathrooms) are shared and all prices include breakfast - home-baked bread & home-made jam.
