We had a fantastic stay! We especially loved daily visits from the two horses in the pasture. The cottage is absolutely beautiful, extremely comfortable, tastefully decorated and impeccably maintained. It is well equipped with everything you might need for a restful getaway. The mattresses and linens were very comfortable and made for restful sleep. Jane was an excellent host, provided fantastic ingredients for us to cook breakfast and was very responsive to any inquiries.

3rd time and it gets better

We spent our third visit to Belles Cottage within 2 years and our experience was as good if not better than our first 2 visits so much so we are planning our next stay with Jane and Fergus. This time around I had a conference in the city. I was able to balance my work at the conference with the “extra curricular” activities on tap in the Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale. Jane’s attention to detail has not waivered. You will not be disappointed however please ensure you do not book the Cottage when we are planning our next trip to Adelaide! Geoff

Wedding stay

We stayed at Belles Cottage for our wedding night. We were amazed at how clean and stunning the place was. We used the 2-way open fireplace at night to create the cozy feel. We also had a hit of tennis on the immaculate condition. Jane was always easy to contact and we will definitely be back to stay for another anniversary! Thanks!

Cannot fault this beautiful property. Stunning location, easy to access the Main Street in Stirling and exceptionally clean. The amenities and breakfast were so thoughtful and made us feel at home and comfortable. Thank you to Jane for her incredible hospitality and making us feel so special.

Beautiful property, would highly recommend!

Friends and I stayed at Belle's cottage for two nights and absolutely loved it! It is a beautifully designed and decorated property and the host, Jane, has thought of everything and added plenty of touches to make it feel like home. The wood heater is just amazing and warms the whole house. Breakfast provisions were delicious. We all wanted to move in, ha ha! Thank you Jane for a wonderful stay, we will be back! Amie

very very comfortable, host was most helpful. Great fire and plenty of fire wood. Couldn't work out the Smeg oven, however nice places to eat out in and around Stirling. All in all we had a very special weekend catching up with family, and staying at Belle's was a real positive.

5 star luxury in the Adelaide Hills

Every attention to detail and no expense has been spared in the presentation of Belle's Cottage. We usually stay in high end accommodation and Belle's Cottage delivers in spades. The owner Jane is the perfect host both accommodating and providing helpful tips throughout our stay. The location is the perfect jump off point to the Adelaide Hills, McLaren Vale, Adelaide and surrounds. Jane's family dog Arlo's visits were a treat. We will definitely be returning here. 11 out of 10

Continues to live up to expectations

This is the second time we have stayed at this property. We stayed with some friends to celebrate the New Year and a birthday. We already knew how great this place was but now we have another 2 converts. A great way to unwind. Peaceful, absolutely what everyone needed to say goodbye to 2020. Best ingredients available for the big breakfast. Thank you for making this such a wonderful experience again.
