Highly recommended

Lisa is the perfect host and her property a wonderful place to stay. Surrounded by gum trees, so quiet, and yet close to all the attractions of the Adelaide Hills

A quiet, secluded place to relax

We spent 3 nights in this beautiful modern 'tabernacle'. With its high ceiling and open plan, and the bed screened off from the living area, it felt spacious and airy. The facilities were excellent and we were able to relax completely. It was lovely to sit outside with horses only a few metres away in their enclosure. We also walked in the beautiful bush at Mt Barker Summit, and spent several hours at Laratinga Wetlands, only a few minutes' drive away. Lisa was an excellent host, very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. Thanks very much, Lisa.

Fantastic

A great place for 2. Such a well designed space, the amount of thought going into the experience was obvious, making it very comfortable. We stayed in both nights rather going out to a restaurant as we wanted to be in the space for longer... definitely recommend it.
