THE VINTAGE
McLaren Vale, Fleurieu Peninsula
The Vintage is a lovingly restored, tastefully decorated 1850s homestead set amid the vineyards of McLaren Vale. You can choose to stay in either of two elegant, self-contained suites. In both suites you’ll find a wood fire, spa bath and a romantic wrought iron bed complete with canopy. Upon arrival you’ll be treated to a premium bottle of local sparkling wine, port and Medlow liquor chocolates. Everything you need for a continental and hot breakfast is also provided. The Vintage is the perfect base from which to explore the McLaren Vale’s 60 cellar doors, restaurants, cafés and scenic countryside. Best of all, it’s only an hour’s drive from Adelaide, so it’s extremely handy for a weekend escape.

MERLOT AND VERDELHO TOWNHOUSES
Penola, Limestone Coast

CALEDONIAN INN COTTAGE
Robe, Limestone Coast
Robe is one of Australia’s most picturesque coastal resorts. While it’s still a working fishing village, it also has everything you need for a luxurious seaside holiday.

The newly renovated Caledonian Inn Cottage is the perfect place to stay while you’re in town. Exquisitely decorated, the cottage features a gorgeous loft bedroom, a spacious kitchen, a huge bath tub you’ll want to soak in forever, and even a cozy wood fire to ward off the winter chills.

THE OLD SCHOOL HOUSE
McLaren Vale, Fleurieu Peninsula
It may be called the Old School House, but this self-contained accommodation is strictly for those who want to relax, not work or study. The 1800s building retains its heritage charm, but it’s also rated five stars for luxury. That means it’s equipped with everything from a spa to a fully-equipped kitchen, and is spacious enough for groups of two to six guests to stay in absolute comfort. Set in the main township of McLaren Vale, the cottage is within walking distance of all the major cellar doors, restaurants and attractions of this wonderful wine region.
