Rustic, quaint and comfortable. Excellent location. This surpassed our expectations! It's very well appointed with everything we needed. Super comfy beds. Very comfy lounge. Alas, it was too cold for us to try the outside bath. We want to come back again.

Really nice place to stay, quiet and good views off the balcony. Very little noise as the property is set back from the road. Close to wineries- namely the "Cube" at D'Arenburg- Willunga Farmers market (every Saturday) and great historic pubs. Only 20-30 min drive to Victor Harbour as well. Host is very responsive to messages and provides great info of the Cottage and surrounding places to visit. Would definitlely recommend and stay here again.
