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!

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

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

Groomsmen's cottage

My groomsmen & I stayed at this property in the leadup to our wedding, and we were blown away. First of all, if you think the photos are stunning, the actual house itself will take your visionary senses to that next level. Rustic and warm, with a slick touch of modernism blended in. We were in awe, with my mates and even our photographer asking us a bunch of questions about the property so that they too could stay here in the future. Our photographer who has a decade plus of experience under his belt filming weddings around the world said it was the best cottage hes ever seen. Legitimately. Secondly, additional features if hosting larger guests. The owners provided ample supplies for us to cook more than enough breakfast to feed four grown men. There was a lot we didnt use too. Fresh eggs from the chicken coup, a herb garden free for us to use, a footy oval, well maintained tennis court, basketball ring, surrounding gardens and driveways; Adelaide Hills scenery exemplified. Very secluded too from the main road, but easy to find, and the owners made it easy to check in and out. You will feel like you are a world away. Finally, the owner's customer service. Great communication from the get go online, always happy to give advice re where to eat or what kind of scenery shots are available for photo opps, and even home baked cookies with a personalised note - she knew how to be personal, attentive, and welcoming, whilst giving us our space so that we felt like we had truly gotten away from the everyday hustle and bustle of life. This was an unforgettable experience that set the tone for a weekend that will live in our hearts forever, and it has my highest recommendation if you are considering a getaway house in the hills for a special occasion. Thankyou.
