We were delayed on check-in day, arriving at the accomodation just before 7pm. As this is my first time booking a 2 1 accomodation, I omit to mention to Becky that we need the day bed made up, as well as towels for the 3rd occupant. Becky was kind enough to assist despite it being really late, and we were very grateful about that. There is also no wi-fi, a conscious decision to allow travellers to enjoy the beautiful town and its surrounds - we thoroughly loved Goolwa Barrage (seal sightings); Port Elliot's Horseshoe Bay; Hahndorf (duh!) and Coorong Yelloweye Mullet which is a delicacy from the unique Murray River x Southern Ocean habitat. On the way to Strathalbyn, we crossed the Murray River at Wellington, a free 5-min boat ride - that was exhilarating! Glad to have found this property months earlier and be able to explore the quieter area in peak tourism season.

This many 5 star ratings don't lie - absolutely fabulous place. Favourite thing that wasn't apparent from the photos is the private back deck that overlooks the Angus River Nature Walk area, could happily sit there all day watching the birds (or better yet, lull around in the spa while doing so). Super clean, generous provisions and just such a peaceful relaxing vibe. Would definitely stay here again, and probably will.

My stay was nothing short of exceptional. The bed was supremely comfortable and provided such incredible support that my back felt completely at ease throughout the night—something I don’t often experience when traveling. The tub was absolutely stunning, offering the perfect space to unwind in style, while the combustion fireplace added a warm, intimate ambiance that made the entire room feel both luxurious and inviting. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, combining comfort and elegance in a way that created a truly memorable experience. This was, without a doubt, a 5-star stay that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking both relaxation and refinement.

We were really impressed by this cute little modern cottage. It has 2 fireplaces, one in the bubble bath area and one in the bedroom. It has a cozy feel to it and was the perfect choice for our 2 night getaway. It was clean and well equipped. This place is absolute magic.
