The grounds of this property are just beautiful. The rustic front gate to the fountains throughout the gardens were a joy. The facilities included a beautiful looking pool and bbqs, fire pits all ready to go, if wanted. The accommodation was quirky.

This place is amazing. The spot is secluded, quiet and serene. The ONLY thing I would want people to know is it is about 7-8 minutes from the nearest restaurant. There are bbq facilities but if you’re looking to walk to dinner this is not the place. If you’re looking for a quiet breathtaking experience around every corner of the unit and grounds, this is your place.

What a fabulous stay. Beautiful gardens and surrounds, fabulous pool and quaint room with fabulous bathroom and spa. Rom included some plates, cutlery and glasses so could also use the outdoor (clean and provided paper towels, utensils and olive oil spray) BBQ for great meals. Also some dishwashing gear provided. lovely little bubbles and small cheese platter provided in the mini fridge. Highly recommend and visit the Moorooroo cellar door tasting right next door.

Magical Retreat in Barossa

This is one of those places where you count your lucky stars that you booked there. If you like outdoor spaces that are nicely landscaped with the feel of being on an estate, this is the place. The rooms were as can be seen in the photos. Our king room was nicely appointed, and had refrigerator and welcome items. The pool area with a canopied bbq area adjacent to it was divine. There is a common area building with sofas just behind a huge lawn (for lawn bowling). Five minutes from Jacobs Creek wines (and recommend the dinner there). For us, this place was magical.

The property has a nice assortment of accommodation suites. The character of the rooms and grounds is charming and offers a refreshing change to other accommodation options. The position of the property positions it a close drive to Tanunda that offers a variety of dining options. The garden and grounds are excellent and well curated blending well with the old and new builings on the grounds. Well worth a stay.
