Great property and very comfortable to be based at. Only one downside is that you have to get in the car to shop or eat as limited with anything within walking distance.

Great stay in the heart of wine country!

We were in the region as part of our wine tasting tour. The apartment was in a great location, super comfy and very spacious. The staff had some great recommendations for places to eat in the evening. The generous breakfast was also very welcome for our long drive ahead.

This was the perfect stop for us on our way To Adelaide. Quiet away from the highway noise. Close to the wineries and the main street. Modern and well-appointed and had everything we needed for a stay, plus the benefit of a Continental Breakfast that kept us going all day. Will definitely be back.
