About this property

Lorondale Homestead

Lorondale Homestead has been held in the same farming family since being built in 1904. This large rustic farm house sits in the middle of the farm with its nearest neighbour being over a kilometre away.

The homestead boasts large bedrooms and spacious living areas and comfortably sleeps 4 couples with maximum beds for 11. Some of the bedding configurations can be changed to suit your preference and pets are allowed by negotiation.

There are two large living rooms, one of which is set up as a dining room with seating for 12 and the other as a lounge room with couches and a sunny window seat. There is also a cosy library/sitting room with a wide selection of books to read and some of the family and farming history available.

Situated between the popular wine regions of Clare and Barossa Valley, and only an hour from Adelaide, the homestead is secluded enough for a relaxing stay and close enough for day visits to wineries or cycling trips.

Full bedding, linen, towels, bath mats and tea towels are provided for your stay.

A lovely stay in the countryside

We really enjoyed the history of the old farmhouse, the warm fireplace kept us cozy during the cold nights. It was nice to wake up to views of the surrounding fields.

Rural wine & food retreat with friends & family

Great central location to Clare Valley & Barossa Valley to move between and explore the food and winery options. Felt great at the end of the day to relax on the verandah looking over the fields with a glass of wine and platter of local goodies.
