You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Barn - a little bit rustic, a little bit luxe & little bit wild

The Barn is where the past meets the present in a blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. The thick stone walls and exposed timber beams have stood for over a century and tell a tale of history and heritage from the original Barossan settlers.

Relax in luxe comfort between crisp white cotton sheets and French linen pillowcases/duvet on the super-sized king bed. Light the candles for a romantic evening and feel like a world away from modern life. Wake up to rural views from your private north-facing deck, a perfect spot to unwind and recharge. For your modern needs, be entertained with the smart TV with Chromecast and portable wifi Ultimate Ears Bluetooth speaker. A Nespresso Vertuo coffee machine is provided with a selection of pod coffees alongside teas including herbals.

Your private lockable contemporary bathroom with a separate lockable toilet (and a ‘dunny' view) is a short walk away. Bathrobes are provided. You may not be in a tent but you will enjoy the nuances of glamping as you look up at the stars and feel the magic from the sparkling universe above.

Opposite The Barn, you'll find the Pug Lounge that offers a comfortable covered space to have a BBQ, to lounge and enjoy the atmosphere. You will have access to a Weber gas BBQ, . Additionally, The Barn itself has its own kitchenette equipped with a fridge, microwave, kettle, air fryer and crockery. The Barn does not have plumbed water but a 2-litre ceramic water filter vessel is provided for drinking water that filters out bacteria, contaminants and fluoride.

Whether you're here to unwind , explore or create special memories, the Barn has been a unique location for many of our past guests. We have hosted numerous proposals, engagements, honeymoon and anniversary celebrations for couples who have chosen The Barn to create special memories that last a lifetime.

Whilst it may not suit everyone - especially those who require the comforts of an ensuite bathroom at night - if you think you can enjoy this unique experience, we warmly you to Pondicherri and The Barn.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with Netflix. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bathrobes. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board. Change of towels is available on request.

The main room with the bed was well appointed with lots of lovely little touches. Pod machine, chrome cast on tv, king bed, beautifully decorated. The outdoor sitting area was lovely and relaxing and the toilet and bathroom modern. William our host was helpful and a pleasure to deal with.

This was a lovely place to stay for a night or two. The barn has a very comfy king bed, big TV with streaming services provided and a very thoughtful array of tea/coffee/hot choc. It does have the bathroom facilities (including all sources of running water) in a separate block about 10m from the barn. The hosts were friendly and their pug is super cute.

Hideaway in the Hills

Good proximity to Barossa attractions. Very quiet. The fire pit was a hit. Huge bed. A little bit cluttered in the main quarters and a little bit disjointed, having three separate buildings to go to in order to get things done. The host William was very accommodating and keen to make our stay enjoyable.

Quaint and secluded

We didn’t think we were going to like the rustic place but strangely we did. We felt very comfortable in the large bedroom and there was everything we needed. Loved sitting on the little deck in the sunshine. The bathroom facilities are very modern and only a short walk from the bedroom. Thank you.

Winter stay at The Barn

Spent 2 nights at the Barn and despite the wet and woolly weather we enjoyed our time here. Would get even more out of our stay in the warmer months what with the lovely outdoor areas. Highly recommend eating at Harvest Kitchen near by

Fantastic little cottage. Quiet, peaceful, homely and so relaxing. Came complete with absolutely adorable black pug and a very friendly cat that decided that sleeping with us on our first night was the way to go. Very clean and private too. 10/10.

Barossa Retreat

Lovely quiet retreat from our busy every day lives in the most captivating space. Was amazing to be able to strip back and enjoy the fresh air, gaze at the stars and watch the morning mist roll in from the comfort of the beautiful barn! We will definitely be back as soon as we can.
