Paprika Spa Cottage in the gardens of Buxton Manor
Had a wonderful stay here with a friend for Gather Round 2025. Well positioned for the Adelaide Oval games. Also on the free city bus loop which was helpful. Regina was super responsive and helpful with check in etc. The cottage is lovely and decked out in period furniture. Beds were comfy Thanks for the stay

Cumquat Cottage: tranquil, pet-friendly
A truly wonderful stay for us (couple and our dog). Meriel and Patrick's beautiful cottage exceeded our expectations in every respect. Beautifully appointed and styled, it contained everything we could have possibly wanted for our two night stay. It was almost like Meriel had read my mind when she went shopping! The house had all the essentials to keep us going, and her attention to detail was impeccable. I particularly loved the fact that 'pet friendly' didn't translate to compromises in comfort, cleanliness, and a little luxury. Some places can feel more like they are 'pet proof' rather than 'pet friendly!' It was not the case with Cumquat Cottage. A highlight in my many years of AirBnB stays, thank you.

The Strand at The Vineyard McLaren Vale
We had a wonderful stay in the beautiful cottage, everything was extremely clean and thoughtfully set out. We really appreciated the bits left for breakfast for both mornings and also the wine and snacks which we enjoyed on the terrace. Would 100% recommend to anyone staying in McLaren Vale!

Cozy cottage-spa bath-Breakfast-Wifi
I've done a fair bit of travelling and without a doubt, this is one of the best Airbnb's I've ever had the pleasure of staying at. It has everything you'd need for a holiday, it's great to see that there are hosts out there that still care about providing a memorable experience and not only a roof over their customers heads. I can't reccomend this place enough. I would definitely reccomend to family and friends, and I will definitely be back!!

Galway Cottage Willunga, 1843 Heritage listed.
We had a wonderful stay at Galway Cottage. It was a bastion of calm in our holiday! The scenery is beautiful and Jason gave excellent recommendations of local places to go. You felt like you were stepping back in time, even though Jason has ensured there are all the modern comforts one needs. We hope to return and stay longer!

Kent Cottage. Family friendly, cosy & convenient
Jacky was a great host, and the Airbnb was awesome, she was excellent and we found it incredibly easy to communicate with her. Thank you for having us!!

The Ardmore at The Vineyard McLaren Vale
Such a relaxing and beautiful place to stay, location is fantastic with no expense spared to make you feel welcome and at home. Partner and I loved it, will recommend

Clare Cottage Willunga 1843 Heritage Listed
The cottage was absolutely beautiful! Jason has done a beautiful job creating such a welcoming atmosphere with everything you could possibly need during your stay. Attention to detail and stand out features were amazing. Jason was a great communicator during our stay and on check out day/morning when a storm had hit, Jason suggested and offered that we stay a little longer until the storm had passed. I would highly recommend the cottage and Jason as a host ☺️

Excellent place to stay for our basketball weekend. Very quiet neighbour. Great central location. Dog friendly.

The Beach Nook. Cosy in winter, beach lifestyle.
This is our second time staying at this beautiful little place. The location is great. We could walk to get groceries or get coffee at the beach. Nice little parks nearby. The house itself has all you need. Gillian was super friendly and communicated well. She went above and beyond for us :)

1930's Character Cottage - Beautifully Restored
Great place to stay if you'd like to walk to the shops and restaurants in McLaren Vale. Well furnished home with everything you want in the kitchen. Anna is very responsive and easy to communicate with.

48 West
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 48 West. Sarina was a wonderful host, with her home being beautifully styled and well equipped. Every last detail was thought of! As a gorgeous heritage home right in the heart of town, 48 West is the perfect place to relax, spend time with family and use as a base to explore the beautiful Adelaide Hills. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable!

CURROLGA Elevated Sweeping Seaview Coastal Retreat
We just spent the long weekend at Olga's place. It was exactly what we imagined and did exactly what we needed - family down time, great views, simple screen free weekend. The place was spotless, fire was ready to go, dog had a blast running around the enclosed area. We spent an evening painting the view from a photo we took during the day and then projected on the blinds, explored deep creek conservation park and played lots of cards and board games (supplied) by the fire ☺️ Oh and a windy winters walk up to the next paddock to feed the friendly horse and donkey! Thank you, Ali & Family

Cosy home huge garden great beach
Great place to stay. Everything you need is available and clean. Welcome pack in the fridge is good after a long day travel. It is walking distance to the beach and cafes. The house is a good size and suits us well for a hassle free getaway.

Yankalilla Farm Stay "Moana Views" Pet friendly
Thank you for your lovely hospitality! The place was both cosy and beautiful. It was well kept and just enough for the two of us! The place was very clean and comfortable, thank you for providing us with fresh eggs and milk. It was an experience that the both of us will never forget, and we will definitely be back!

Enchanting Farm Cottage
The cottage was as enchanting as promised. We loved the understated warmth and charm of this getaway. Arriving to a heated house, and other treats including a good bottle of shiraz was especially appreciated. We were so taken with this beautiful cottage that we booked it again almost straight away - and look forward to our return. Highly recommended :)

Ridgetop Retreat secluded but central
We really appreciated the generous breakfast supplies. Thank you

Adelaide City Cottage.

Amazing accomodation - better than the photos! Spacious and in an amazing location. Lovely big yard space and lots of fun things for kids (balls etc) and the sauna made it extra luxury for the adults. Lots of thoughtful touches.

Jetty View at Myponga Beach
Thank you Hugh and Jess for a fabulous stay, and kindly accommodating our last minute booking. The place is fantastic and one of kind with its exceptional views. Highlights were the modern bathroom, kitchen, fireplace, all the games and dvds, local brewery’s only 10 minutes away. Would definitely stay again.

Blueberry Farm Cottage - Nature. Connection. Rest.
A perfect stay at Blueberry Cottage, McLaren Vale! We had such an amazing 4-day getaway at Blueberry Cottage! The place was spotless. Clean beds, fresh sheets, cozy blankets, and a super clean bathroom with great water pressure. Jess and her mum were so welcoming and accommodating, making us feel right at home. The little touches made it extra special: freshly baked bread, local jam, honey, and milk waiting for us in the kitchen. We loved trying all the local products! The cottage was warm, cozy, and peaceful. The perfect place to unwind. We especially enjoyed sitting by the fire pit in the evenings (thank you for leaving us wood!), roasting marshmallows, and just soaking up the serenity. My son had the best time picking apples from their orchard - it was such a treat for the whole family. The location is perfect. Close to wineries, cafes, and everything McLaren Vale has to offer. Thank you so much for an unforgettable stay, Jess and family! We’ll definitely be back

Aldgate Creek Cottage Bed & Breakfast
This cottage is absolutely stunning! The photos don't do it justice, the energy and surrounding nature made the stay even more peaceful. Bonus is also the local foodland that is just a short walk accross the road! Finally & Terry were wonderful responsive hosts who seemed lovely. We loved every single moment of this place and can't wait to come back one day. Thanks again guys!
