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: pet-friendly, private, walkable.
We had such a special stay at Meriel’s cottage. It is so beautifully and meticulously put together. Meriel was a true B&B host, going the extra mile to make our stay perfect, even leaving an Easter egg hunt for our boys to enjoy on arrival! I loved the personal touch in all my communication with Meriel. We cooked a number of meals in the well equipped kitchen, and a highlight was eating outside in the stunning garden on a balmy evening. We were able to take a very pleasant walk through the Botanical Gardens into the Art Gallery from the cottage and also took an outing to see the pandas at the nearby zoo. We’re already plotting our next stay.

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!

The Ardmore at The Vineyard McLaren Vale
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful accommodation in Blewitt Springs. The location and views were absolutely breathtaking, making it the perfect spot to unwind and take in the surroundings. The accommodation itself was cosy yet luxurious, immaculately clean and tidy, and felt truly high-end. The hosts had thought of everything, including a wonderful goodie basket filled with local produce and breakfast items, which was such a thoughtful touch. Check-in was seamless, and the whole experience was effortless from start to finish. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway—it was simply perfect!

Cute modern cottage
We loved our stay, once again everything was perfect. We used the BBQ and cooked in the kitchen both were adequate and worked well. Local fish and chips was great. Our dog loved the garden as did we, spending time sitting in the sun. The beach was invigorating. All in all our stay was wonderful, it was to celebrate 🍾 our birthdays, which we did with great enjoyment. Would recommend "The Shack" 100% it was everything we wanted.

Number 10
Excellent place to stay for our basketball weekend. Very quiet neighbour. Great central location. Dog friendly.

The Beach Nook. Cosy in winter, beach lifestyle.
From the moment we walked in, we felt right at home. The house was very cosy, The kitchen was fully equipped, with the addition of spices and cooking condiments if needed. Plenty of towels and beach towels supplied as well as bathroom necessities which is great for a traveller that likes to carry little. The back yard was very quaint and peaceful, great for my morning coffee and read. The house was is in a great spot, walking distance to beach , shops, and many great coffee shops and restaurants. Overall very satisfied and will definitely return .

Déjà vu Cottage
We stayed at Julien's place for a week while our daughter was settling into Flinders University which is only 10 minutes away. Julien provided clear accurate instructions on accessing his place and helped us with check-in. There was so much space in the room, and we were very comfortable. It was equipped with everything we needed for a short term stay including electric frying pan, mini oven, toaster and bar fridge. It is located right behind the train station and only five minute walk to Belair Hotel which has great meals and service. We took the train into the city, which was roughly an hour trip but the scenery was beautiful travelling through the hills. Overall the stay was very comfortable, accommodating, and we would definitely stay again.

The Cottage at Bella Cosa
Mel’s place was very nice, clean and tidy with a remarkable neighbourhood in Mc Lauren Flat. We enjoyed our stay at Bella Cosa with some cold nights and great heating provided. Mel was very great at hospitality providing stuff when we arrived and support during our stay.

Dairy Cottage - A cosy cottage in Cherry Gardens
We absolutely loved our stay at this gorgeous cottage. From the moment we arrived, it felt welcoming and special. All the thoughtful little touches that Jane left for us made our stay even more memorable – you can really tell she goes the extra mile for her guests. Waking up to parrots feeding just outside the kitchen window each morning was such a treat, and we especially enjoyed having breakfast in the lovely outdoor area. It was peaceful, comfortable, and just perfect. We really enjoyed our time here and hope to return in the future!

Picker's Cottage
It was lovely to return to Johnny and Ann’s exceptional hospitality. Their property is a charming slice of history, beautifully renovated with great attention to detail. Everything you could need for a comfortable stay is thoughtfully provided, including generous breakfast supplies that were much appreciated. Johnny and Ann are such warm and friendly hosts, making the experience all the more memorable. Highly recommended!
