I was looking for a magical spot to introduce my American friend to the Adelaide Hills. I wanted somewhere hidden away in nature surrounded by bird calls, cosy and warm inside. CloudsNest delivered in every way. Our lovely hostess provided us with everything we wanted and many things we didn’t know we wanted. We felt welcome and special and at home.

The perfect little getaway

My friend and I had a truly wonderful time staying here. The view was incredible and to be surrounded by nature and wildlife was really special. The host was lovely and so accommodating towards us. We had two lovely bedrooms with our own bathrooms and our hosts prepared a beautiful cheese platter in the afternoon.

Adelaide Hills perfect stay

I did visit Adelaide Hills for work, travelling with a client. We stayed at Cloud Nest and it was a real discovery and pleasure. We found the place very unique and authentic. The all experience was great, from arrival, breakfast, bush view, the native fauna and air quality.The bedrooms were very comfortable and the host incredibly attentive and discreet. I will come back again and it is definitely in my favourite stay in the area. Thank you so much for the great hospitality.

Beautiful haven

Jean was very welcoming. The rooms were really comfortable and had everything we needed (with big comfy beds as an added bonus). After taking in the views over breakfast, we all enjoyed exploring the property and seeing some kangaroos along the way. Great place to stay when exploring the beautiful region.
