“Enjoy the Barossa from this comfortable B&B”

Reviewed 24 March 2012

person found this review helpful

Greenock's is our second B&B in the Barossa and it really feels historic but comfortable at the same time (the first was Blickinstal in 2003 with the legendary breakfast from Judy, then owner). Doug, the owner, has thoughtfully and generously kitted out the lovely cottage such that you will feel very well-provisioned and comfortable indeed. Email exchanges with Doug during... More

“Perfect and most importantly - doggy friendly!!”

Reviewed 20 February 2012

This was my second stay at the Old Telegraph Station and I must say it was just as good, if not better, than the first time. We needed to check in early as we had to drop the doggies off before venturing over to our lunch booking. Doug was more than accommodating. Although he was still there finishing off the... More

“LITTLE SLICE OF HEAVEN”

What a lovely surprise this place was. We went to the Barossa Valley and wanted something more intitmate than a hotel chain. I decided on this place as it was in a lovely little town and it was very old as it used to be an old post office in the 1800's. We were not dissapointed. Once you book you... More

“Amazing Hideaway In Barossa Valley”

Reviewed 2 October 2011

It is great to find a "pet friendly" B&B that really is pet friendly. My wife and I recently stayed here with our travelling companion (Sheltie Puppy) and had a great time, with a fully fenced rear yard and with our dog being allowed inside with the only proviso being not allowed on the furniture. The property is warm and... More

“Really great place requiring just some minor attention to detail”

Reviewed 28 August 2011

Firstly, the booking process was very smooth, with excellent directions, information, tips and maps provided. The location is really great, just outside the touristy part of the Barossa, but still accessible. Greenock has that small town country feel but is only five minutes drive to restaurants and a big shopping centre. Along with that, on the weekend the Greenock pub... More

“Worth every cent.”

Reviewed 8 July 2011

This is a great place to stay, there were three of us and there was plenty of room with one queen and one double bed. The provisions for breakfast were very generous and everything we needed was there, even a cappuchino machine. We stayed on other lodgings that were more expensive and didn't provide as much. Beds were very comfortable,... More

“Home away from home”

Reviewed 20 February 2011

This is a great place to stay, it's like a home away from home. Comfortable and relaxing. Kitchen is great, we cooked ourselves dinner, it is well set-up. Spacious bathroom with a beautiful spa bath, it even has a washing machine with washing powder provided. Well situated within the Barossa. Could not have asked for anything better. More
