Overview
Built in 1886, and registered with the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, Sennen House is one of Picton's original colonial homesteads. This grand two-storey villa has been extensively restored in keeping with its gracious style and era, to offer guests a unique accommodation experience set in 5 acres of mature gardens, native bush, and orchard, yet only a short stroll to Picton's restaurants, ferries, galleries and foreshore.
Three elegant one bed roomed apartments and two spacious suites, combine Victorian charm with every luxurious convenience, to offer privacy, peace and individual character, three having their own private lounge (two with open fire), kitchen and dining area and all having private entrance and ensuite or private bathroom.
Relax with a glass of local Marlborough wine on sunny, north-facing verandahs, or take a leisurely al-fresco breakfast, (generous hamper provided daily) with views across the grounds to Picton and the sea or hills beyond. Indulge in the luxuries of pure cotton linen, heated towel rails and robes, listen to native bird song or simply absorb the timeless tranquil grandeur of Sennen House.
Within minutes of Picton's amenities, we are ideally situated to explore the stunning Marlborough region with its wineries, waterways, magnificent landscapes and famous Queen Charlotte Track.
Your hosts, Richard & Imogen are landscape architects and have travelled extensively both internationally and throughout New Zealand. They and their young family, invite you to share their local knowledge and passion for this truly unique, memorable and very special place.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
