Cozy time capsule

My husband and I stayed in the property for three nights. We really enjoyed it. Peaceful, quiet location, lots of space inside and outside. Lots of things to explore in the area and then return to this beautiful cottage and relax surrounded by tranquility and local history. Museum and home in one! Fantastic holiday! Thanks so much John and Jan!

A beautiful spot and a comfy/productive cottage.

Moculta is delightful and the property's back yard is lovely - with many trees. The cottage is really well organised for guests. I was able to be very productive, working from the dining room table, which was great. John is extrememly responsive and helpful in helping solve issues that cropped up (not many, mind you).

Past, Present and Future.

Staying in Lemke cottage was like staying in the pioneering era. The house has been renovated with beautiful stone and woodwork that maintains the integrity of the cottage. It's furnished with a collection of 'labour saving devices' from the past, such as an old washing machine and wringer and allowing us to imagine the hard work that was required in everyday life over a hundred years ago - 'mod-cons' or not! Lemke cottage is situated in the small, quiet village of Mocculta. The drive into Angaston and other Barossa towns, is beautiful and at the end of a day of sight seeing etc. can be enjoyed once more, knowing that the feeling of home and comfort awaits. We will certainly return to the home of the true artisans that have recreated it with their own vision.

A cosy cottage full of charm and yesteryear!

A sweet cottage with lots of charm from years gone by which we loved. Comfy beds and lovely linen with great soft pillows. Appreciated the electric blankets too! The bottle of wine a nice gesture. We had a lovely three days covering all parts of the Barossa and plan to return very soon. Thanks again. Regards Chris and Marg

disappointed

The house was fairly dirty in areas .. under furniture and in corners. the lift bed sheet had marks in main sheet like linen not changed. The hot water was very difficult to adjust in the shower... so we couldn’t get temp right and hav a proper wash .The coffee machine leaked so we didn’t use it. there was no room near fire to sit ... as the lounge room fire place wasn’t able to be used . The cottage is on main rd and it didn’t feel private . There was loud music playing til after 12 mn on sat night .

Winter Barossa Escape

From the outset the communication with the owners was perfect, John and Jan gave us ideas for activities and had literally thought of everything - it was a cold weekend but the house had ample firewood, reverse cycle heating and electric blankets, there is no way we could be cold. There is a pod coffee machine, a BBQ, a well appointed bathroom and the cottage is private, cosy and in an area that is a short drive to most of the local attractions. An easy drive to Angaston, Nuri and Tanunda, there are wineries, gourmet cafes and the egg and bacon rolls and coffee at the Angaston Market are worth the trip alone! Small places selling local produce makes it easy to cook your own meals or drive to one of the local towns for cafes and restaurants. Would stay again, had a great weekend!
