About this property
Magpie Lane Cottage in the heart of the Clare Valley
Nestled in the hamlet of Penwortham in the heart of the Clare Valley this quaint, unique cottage (circa 1896) is set well back from the main road. Magpie Lane Cottage is situated only metres from the Riesling Trail. Drive, cycle or walk to some of the best winery cellar doors and restaurants the beautiful Clare Valley has to offer. Enjoy the abundant birdlife (including Bob, our resident magpie) and watching sunsets from the deck in this peaceful and tranquil setting.

Hi there I am a retired Scottish born Australian and spent my working life in the Refrigeration Industry. My wife Deanne is also retired but busier than ever. We love the food and wine of the Clare Valley and hope you do to.
