About this property

Chic & cozy guest suite with lovely rural views, close to many fab wineries.

In the heart of Adelaide Hills wine country, Elouera on Shobbrook is located in the small district of Flaxley, and is perched high on a hilltop with beautiful views of the valley below and open countryside.

We are hosts who embrace the values of inclusion and diversity, so all are welcome at our little piece of paradise.

The property’s first release accommodation is a guest suite which we have named ‘Little Fermoy’. It accommodates 1-2 couples sleeping across 2 very large bedrooms – 1 King and 1 Queen – each featuring beautiful vintage furniture and wares, high quality French flax linen bedding and luxuriously comfortable beds.

The bedrooms share a large heritage styled bathroom with deep soaker tub, separate large walk-in shower, and featuring a double marble-top vanity, under floor heating, overhead heat lamps and heated towel rack.

Included in a stay at Elouera on Shobbrook are cooked breakfast provisions sufficient for the first day of your stay, including freshly baked bread (made by host). The kitchenette has all the food staples, kitchenware and cooking equipment you could possibly need to whip up light meals, and includes a Nespresso coffee maker with starter pack of pods, a range of Brewed by Belinda teas/tisanes, and full-sized fridge freezer.

The kitchenette is co-located with a cosy lounge/dining area, with several dining options. There is also an outdoor dining table setting for 4 located on the deck if you prefer to eat outside, and an electric BBQ . A 3-seater couch and coffee table, together with a wall-mounted smart TV, complete the living area.

The guest suite has zoned reverse-cycle aircon/heating, block-out blinds, double-glazed windows, ceiling fans, 100% wool carpet and natural wood flooring, for year round comfort.

Elouera on Shobbrook is located just 5 minutes drive from the historic township of Macclesfield, with its newly renovated General Store and Macclesfield Hotel (renowned for its award winning schnitzels). The stunning family owned Longview Vineyard (with day spa) is located on the outskirts of Macclesfield and is in good company amongst the many Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale and Langhorne Creek wineries which are within comfortable driving distance of the property.

The property is 30 minutes to the outskirts of the city of Adelaide, and 45 minutes from the Adelaide Airport. The large regional town of Mount Barker is a 10-minute drive away. The well-known tourist township of Hahndorf, Australia’s oldest surviving German settlement, is a 15 minute drive away.

Secluded and private, Elouera on Shobbrook is an ideal place to relax and unwind and take advantage of the peace and quiet of its rural location.

Sit on the 3 metre wide covered wrap-around verandah with a glass of wine or cup of tea and a good book, with picturesque valley views as your backdrop. Or take advantage of one of the many cafes, country towns and pubs, wineries and distilleries, chocolatiers, vintage and gift stores and more that the surrounding Adelaide Hills offer. The choice is yours.

We have thought of everything you could possibly need for a healthy, relaxing, restorative, fun-filled and positive stay in the Adelaide Hills, at Elouera on Shobbrook.

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Wood

Host profile image
Hi - I'm Melissa. Because of my experience in the travel industry, & with holiday rentals, I'm currently managing the reservations for this lovely property for my sister, Michele (Shelley) - that's us together in the photo! Shelly & her husband Chris are a semi-retired couple now living in the Adelaide Hills. Before retiring from the full-time work force, Shelley worked for 30+ years at a number of universities across Australia, interrupted by a 6 year full-time stint as an Officer in the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). In addition to welcoming guests to their beautiful property, Shelley also runs her own home-based on-line business - In the Knit of Time; she designs and hand knits bespoke bed/couch throws and other homeware items. Chris spent his entire 40 year career in the RAAF also as a commissioned officer, and continues to serve part-time in the RAAF Reserves. Shelley & Chris spend a good deal of their spare time working on the property, but when they're not doing that, they love to travel both locally and overseas and sneak in a bit of snow skiing and scuba diving when they can.

I'll be looking after you throughout the booking process, & Shelley & Chris will be looking after you during your stay in their vintage-inspired guest suite, which they have lovingly restored. Together, we will be making sure your stay is everything you expect it to be!
