Two bedrooms, both fully carpeted, both with queen beds and wardrobes. large walk in shower with grab rails in shower room as well as front loader washing machine for own use. large windows and double door opens out onto large covered patio area with seating/table and beautiful views across the almost 2 acres of multiple award winning landscaped gardens nestled on the banks of the River Angas, which flows through the gardens.

A blue tooth speaker to connect to your phone to listen to your own music in addition Wifi is available for free as well as a range of DVDs/books free to use.
Breakfast provisions both continental and for you to cook yourself bacon and eggs are supplied for first two nights of your stay, plus ample continental supplies. We also offer a complementary decanter of port sourced from our friends at Bleasdale.

Parking whilst staying is in our diagonal car spaces just outside the property. You are welcome to drive down to unpack and then again when you are packing.

We are perfectly positioned on the very edge of town, easy walking distance to four pubs, restaurants, coffee shops, Motor Museum and Antique/homewares stores. For the explorers we are only 15 mins from the wineries at Langhorne Creek, 20-25 mins from Mount Barker and Hahndorf, 35 mins from the coastline at Goolwa and Port Elliot with Victor Harbour just a short drive further on. The City of Adelaide with its international airport is only 45 mins away.

My adult son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Gasworks Garden Suite.Heather and Graham are very friendly and thoughtful. The cottage has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. We stayed for 6 days and would have loved to stay longer. The garden is stunning with vews down to the Angas River, lots of bird life and many delightful spots to sit and enjoy the serenity of the area. Their local knowledge is very helpful. We were supplied with local bread, wine and fresh eggs from the Diva Chooks at the bottom of the garden. Jake the staffie gave us his approval! Thanks Heather, Graham and Jake.
