We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this property. The house itself was spacious, beautifully presented, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway. The grounds were stunning, immaculately maintained, peaceful, and perfect for enjoying the outdoors.Every aspect of the property felt thoughtfully designed, creating a welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. Whether relaxing inside, exploring the beautiful gardens, or spending time with family and friends, there was plenty of space to enjoy.The combination of the beautiful home, picturesque surroundings, and attention to detail made for a truly memorable stay. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat and would happily stay again in the future.

Fantastic family escape

My family and I had a wonderful time together on this stay. The accommodation was beautifully turned out with comfortable and stylish furnishings and decor. The rooms were fabulously spaced out, allowing us to relax individually or spend quality time together. Our two children are pre-teen and teenaged, and we found the property offered them plenty to stay entertained and happy for hours!! This was important as it was a winter break, so we wanted a space where we could enjoy the great indoors. Having said that, we did get out for some sightseeing and took advantage of local attractions, including a quick trip to Willunga, Maxwell winery, plus delicious meals locally at Manna's and Oscars. All in all a brilliant getaway. Would definitely love to come back and stay here again!! My family rates this property 5 stars 🌟 🤩

Tenants are expected to do the sheets themselves. Owner leaves the bed sheets in a closet and NOT in bedroom, making it difficult to identify single bedsheets, double bedsheets, kingsize sheets to the tenant to sort out. On departure, u r also expected to pull out all the sheets !! Keys to the property are left in a secured lockbox BUT, the lockbox location is NOT highlightedd in the Expedia website !! We had to search for it !!

Family wedding

Very clean and comfortable. Not sure if a later checkout was available - we should have checked because getting 6 adults out of the house and doing associated cleaning by 10am was a challenge. There were 2 showers available however the automatic watering system seemed to be timed to run at this time too. That affected the water pressure so we didn’t run more than 1 shower at a time. We also guessed that we might have been the first users (?) of some Sheridan towels as they left black flecks on the skin, floor and shower area. Limited hanging space for clothes but was easily worked around. Overall, it was homely and beautifully decorated.

Thank you for your positive feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Yes we do offer later checkouts if requested, whilst 10am is the industry standard for checking out, we do our best to accommodate our guests if we can. We provide a basic linens for our guest, for their convenience. Including quality Sheridan towels which are provided at the property at no additional cost to guest. Watering system is in place to keep gardens in good order, however it can be switched off if guest prefer at the wall. All hanging space is displayed in photographs including one wardrobe area, draws and two other clothes hangers as well as above door hanging provisions in all bedrooms.

Beautiful modern home , great location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this gorgeous property . As an avid gardener myself i truly appreciated the effort made to maintain the lovely landscaping .Everything was green & well looked after. The home had everything we needed for our short stay . Only disappointment was the beds ...we struggled a little to get in & out (being quite low to the floor) but otherwise a 10/10. perfect quiet location & friendly neighbours too :)

Winery getaway

The house was lovely however the beds were extremely low (maybe 18 inches from floor to top of mattress) so would not be suitable for people with mobility issues. All windows are locked so couldn't get any fresh air in the house. No front screen door or sliding screen on back door either to enable fresh air. If you are travelling a long distance to stay - beds were not made up so that is one thing you need to do before relaxing. You would need to bring top sheets and additional blankets if you feel the cold.

Amazing short stay

Came down to McLaren Vale area to have a short stay with my two kids, husband and parents. Was such a nice house, had everything we needed. Outdoor area was excellent for us and the kids had a great time roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. Clean, well maintained, excellent location, quiet area, reserve across the road (kids loved that), roomy house with books, games, xbox and tv's. Great spot to be able to do day trips to wineries. We absolutely loved our time here. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of booking. 5 stars!
