    Cost was excessive as we had 1 extra child in the end and cost per night seemed extreme for 1 extra considering what we'd already paid.

    Location, facilities, comfort, breakfast provisions!!

    if you don't like antique old furniture, it's not for you, but it's very charming if you appreciate it. Lightining could be a bit better in the dining area, otherwise all was good

    large property, great b/yard, private parking, great BBQ facilities, pool table, easy to get to everywhere in Barossa, nice quiet street, plenty of space to do anything you like.

    Great location. Shops and restaurants within walking distance. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. Gary was amazing and kept in contact before arrival. He greeted us on arrival and showed us around the home. Breakfast was included and had a great variety. Eggs, bacon, cereals, condiments, tomatoes, mushrooms, bread, milk and orange juice. We had a wonderful time and are hoping to return again next year. Thank you.

    It was so comfortable, the amenities were amazing. Couldn’t want for anything more. It was also quiet, private and relaxing. We spent a lot of time on the back deck, eating all of our meals there. And on a beautiful street of old homes.

    Cars parked across the street making backing out difficult, but that was not the fault of the owners of the property we had booked!!!

    The facilities were good, and friends were staying right next door, so to be able to use the access gate which joined the two properties was wonderful! The fridge was full of delicious breakfast ingredients and the owners were supportive and helpful. We enjoyed our stay!

    Bed could have been al little more comfortable - {maybe a mattress topper} xx A box of tissues would have been handy - although the paper towel and serviettes were sufficient if needed

    The place was beautiful - breakfast provisions were fantastic - ALL PROVISIONS were exceptional - Place was beautiful and warm upon arrival - Host was full of information about the area - I was thoroughly impressed and will be back for another weekend away with the girls It was nice and close to main street - walking distance BBQ area was lovely (will benefit from that next time)

    A dishwasher would be helpful, especially since the house can accommodate a large group (a lot of dirty plates, glasses, etc.). But not a big issue though.

    A house with character. Everyone loved it! Clean, spacious, cosy, fantastic outdoor areas, great breakfast provisions... The photos don't do it justice. Highly recommended.
