First impressions are everything and entering this house is a treat. It's set up so well, and a bit of exploration reveals the very generous supplies that have been... More

Everywhere we looked there were little treats, even a birthday cake with a lovely note wishing a happy birthday, what a special touch!! We felt... More

We decided to stay at Hillgrove in the Adelaide Hills as they had won many awards for being the best romantice accommodation in South Australia. As we market romance, we decided to see what we could learn from these multi award winners. On arrival at this gorgeous place, we found a fridge full of local produce. Cheeses, Maggie Beer pate,...

We've just returned from our 8th visit to Hillgrove House, & we again return home with beautiful memories. Who would believe that 40 minutes from our home, there's such an idyllic setting with a gorgeous historic cottage that's been restored with sensitivity & class.

Wonderful, peaceful, relaxing, romantic and beautiful. Every little luxury you can think of is generously provided. I can completely recommend staying here, we had a wonderful time the first time we stayed at Waratah Cottage, and I have just booked another weekend there. You wont regret staying here... you'll just wish you could stay longer.

For us, the original attraction to spend two nights at Hillgrove was the ability to take our home-comforted dogs along for the trip. But when we arrived, Hillgrove clearly had so much more to offer. The views are spectacular, the surrounds quiet and the ammenities second to none. Everything was provided - and in such quality that we were left... More
