Good for a very short stay only

Host was very accommodating however the property description doesn't match reality. Cooking was via a shared barbecue, washing up needed to be done in the bathroom vanity and the restaurant was closed. Most meals required a 20 minute drive to Nairne...or slightly further to Mt Barker. It would be OK for an overnight stay or weekend if you wanted to travel around the Adelaide Hills. Longer stays are very difficult.

South Australian Holiday

The location enabled us to do day tours of the Fleurieu Peninsula, Hahndorf and Barossa Valley, plus a day in Adelaide. The accomodation for a couple was ok. Bottom step needs replacing. No cooking facilities ( microwave only) was a surprise. No washing up facilities a bit tedious. Used bathroom sink to wash cups etc No tea towels It appears from promotional stuff on the website there is cooked food available. Overall we enjoyed our stay and had a great time visiting all the places we had planned. Karen and Peter

Very disappointed

We first booked believing that the property was in the Adelaide hills, not past them. We chose the property based on the fact that all.of the ads featured a cafe. We were looking forward to coffee and a cheese platter based on the ads as well as a lovely dinner without having to leave the property. When we arrived it was all closed 😢 we were also looking forward to breakfast, which turned out to be bread which went soggy in the wet fridge and some jam plus half a carton of already opened milk. All incredibly disappointing

Great host and a nice place for a comfortable stay. Our family of four and the dog enjoyed our stay there. The town is very quiet so ideal for a getaway from the city life.
