What a great place to stay in Mclaren Vale, located right on the rail trail and only a short walk from the main street. Room was spacious, very clean and the bed and pillows were so comfy, they provide a mini bar, microwave, kettle, pod machine, cups plates and cutlery for your use. Lovely, friendly housekeeping team providing daily housekeeping ensuring our room was well stocked for our 2 night stay. Each room has an outside seating area overlooking the lovely grounds, watching the hundreds of parrots, who arrive every evening at sundown was a highlight. There is also a very nice looking outdoor swimming pool on site, but we didn't use it. As a bonus they give guests a voucher for a complimentary wine tasting for 2 people at their cellar door. Would definately stay again.

We were only there for one night but the entrance to the grounds was amazing. It was beautiful. Easy to check in and staff were super friendly. There was a complimentary wine tasting which was a really cool extra! The room was clean and spacious and had everything you needed. It was perfect for our travels.

The location was absolutely fantastic. We loved the attached winery and truly enjoyed the complimentary wine tasting. It was a wonderful experience overall. However, I was very disappointed to find a large number of dead flies in our room. There were not only dead ones but also live flies flying around. I understand that flies are common in McLaren Vale, but the amount in the room was excessive. Although there was bug spray provided and I used it, it didn't solve the problem completely. Coming from Japan, I am not accustomed to seeing insects indoors, so I expected a much cleaner environment. Seeing dozens of dead flies on the windowsill was particularly disturbing. I strongly hope the housekeeping will be improved.

This property was great for us. We had a 4 night stay here while visiting family in the area. The bed was comfy, the room was very clean and serviced daily. The water pressure was excellent and provided for a great shower. The shower is over the bath, not a problem for us but could be an issue for some people. We had an excellent meal at the restaurant on the Friday night. They have a pool that was very much appreciated on a 34 degree day when visiting from Tasmania. We will definitely stay again as the prices are very reasonable in comparison to other accomodation in the area.

For the price of our stay we found it to be poor value. The accommodation is in desperate need of an update, worn and to be honest filthy. I am not sure if it was just our room but it was not clean, dead flies and dust everywhere, mould and hair ridden bathroom. Customer service isn’t existent, other than check in you don’t see staff, they don’t answer the phone when you call reception. The pool, despite the photos is dirty and very uninviting.
