“Secluded getaway in beautiful surroundings”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2012

No this accommodation itself is not luxury in terms of decor etc - but it's perfectly fine. Three cabins and one larger house surround a winery on top of a hill just outside McLaren Vale - surrounded by vines and beautiful views of the wine country. Whilst the cabins are fairly close to each other, the way they're positioned makes them feel much more secluded. The winery is a lovely spot to sit at the end of a day wine tasting in the region and enjoy a glass of wine on the balcony - their GSM is very good and great value.

Highlights for us were watching the sunset from our outdoor spa and waching the alpacas wander around the property and enjoying the BBQ area for an evening meal with local produce and wines purchased during the day in the area.

You won't be wowed by the decor - there's nothing wrong with it, but if you're into ultra modern this probably isn't the place for you. Still, we found it great value for somewhere well located to explore McLaren Vale and... More

“Just OK...”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2011

person found this review helpful

Don't mind the wine (their shiraz is quite a nice drop) and the view but the accommodation is far from luxury. Got a good deal through Wotif...would have been very disappointed if we had paid a full rate. The spa on the deck is nice...just don't plan on going in on the night you arrive, we found it took forever to warm up...the best part of a day! Also there was no information pack inside the cabin...only a brief letter saying look at the pack for more information - I would have if we had one!

Quite possibly the most uncomfortable bed I have ever stayed in. We ended up getting the mattress from the sofa bed and putting that on top of the bed, kind of crazy but the only way we could sleep. We stayed in Cabin number 2....hoping the others are better....also the TV is outdated, not even digital....there is a DVD player but no movies to watch. The views are great and the spa is nice when it's working but other than that the accommodation is definitely not luxurious. More
