My wife and I stayed for 5 days at this wonderful retreat. Very comfortable, clean and definately a 4 star accomodation. Our friendly host Sue cooked great breakfast and afternoon tea was with home baked muffins or scones whilst she shared her knowledge of the wine business with us. All this included in a very reasonable tarrif. We highly recommend... More

Thanks for the great review, we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Yes we do have some amazing views from Blickinstal and certainly even better just a short walk up the hill. More

My husband and I stayed here in January 2912, our first ever stay in a B&B. Every other B&B we stay at in the future has big shoes to fill. We had a lovely two days, enjoying beautiful food and exceptional hospitality. Sue is a wonderful host, who really made us feel at home. I've recommended the Blickinstal to others,... More

We had 3 tranquil days at Blickinstal and could have easily stayed for a week. The location is a quiet, picturesque setting amongst the vineyards at the foot of the hills. It's far enough from the towns to be a bit of a sanctuary but close enough to easily tour most of the main wineries within a 10 minute drive.... More

Great views, comfortable rooms and a wonderful hostess. We were constantly full from all of Sue's delicious cooking! The scones and homemade strawberry jam was excellent. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Nice views - would definitely recommend this place! More

We visited the Barossa Valley during our honeymoon in Australia in January 2011 and spent a perfect two days in Tanunda. The Blickinstal was the perfect place to stay while enjoying the Barossa Valley -- convenient location, gorgeous surroundings, comfortable room, and amazing breakfasts cooked by Sue (who was also incredibly nice and gave great recommendations on what to see...

Everything about this B&B was wonderful. We booked a Studio for 2 nights & it was bigger than some hotel suites I have stayed in. We had a stunning view of the garden & grapevines. It was beautifully furnished, with a well equipped kitchenette. There was a complimentary carafe of port, a good selection of teas & coffee & a... More

Everything you need for a wonderful stay in Barossa. About a 15 minute drive to Tanunda and many of the finest winery cellar doors and convent to the other main towns. Beautiful complex in the countryside with farm animals and amongst the vineyards with splendid views. The lodge units are well designed and feel spacious with loft bed rooms and... More

I stayed at the Dove Cote Studio for 2 nights in October. Unlike the Blickinstal cottage, the Dove Cote is directly in Tanunda, 2-3 minutes walk from the main road. As I did not rent a car, Sue suggested that this would be a better option for me than the Blickinstal accommodation which I believe is few km away from... More
