A beautiful home and garden! Relaxing and comfortable; the home had all we needed for our 4 night stay. Very clean, with a well equipped kitchen and everything in working order. A beautiful garden and deck for afternoon drinks and morning coffee. Great communication with the owner and easy access. The location among the trees is quiet but still close to Hills attractions and amenities. Recommend and I’d book again.

We absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful home. It was super comfy and wonderfully clean. Host thought of everything we might need. Garden was glorious and our furry friend had a wonderful time sniffing around. Communication with host was excellent and she was very generous with a couple of extra needs we had. Our favourite place to stay around Adelaide so far!

Lovely quiet, clean pet friendly home. Beautiful garden and house. Only thing missing is a bath, but for the hills the water pressure was amazingly good.Gorgeous front and back verandas on the house that we really enjoyed.

A lovely escape
If you are looking to recharge your batteries and enjoy some peace and quiet this is the place for you. Sitting by a crackling fire whilst sipping some beautiful South Australian wine was pure bliss. Communication with the host was exceptional and aside from a few difficulties extending our stay we had the most relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

A Perfect Family Retreat in the Adelaide Hills
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful Aldgate house. The gardens were stunning and perfect for bbq’s and relaxing, while the central location made it easy to enjoy everything the Adelaide Hills has to offer. From wineries to charming villages, it was all so close, and being just 20 minutes from Adelaide was a bonus. It felt like a peaceful retreat for the whole family, and we can’t wait to return!
This property is beautiful. The house is comfortable and sleeps a family easily. The garden is amazing and inviting. The communication was easy.
A fantastic place to stay

Paradise Revisited
Second stay at this idyllic hideaway nestled in the valley just outside charming Aldgate. So nice I extended my stay yet again.
Once again the immaculate manicured garden was a joy to sit in and relax the day away. With friends calling in for lunch and enjoying the visit sitting amongst the pine trees and amazing camellias. Inside is clean and very homely with amazing ambience and everything provided for a long stay.You can spend hours just looking at the interesting furnishings throughout the house. The beautiful walking trails located outside the front door were a daily treat. The host Anna always responded very quickly and was very helpful. I would thoroughly recommend staying in this beautiful house.
