Private cottage in the hills
Loved our stay & how peaceful it was.
Very relaxing spot - wifi not good if you need to do any work/emails. Hosts provided lovely items for breakfast.
Would stay again!

Wonderful stay
Lovely touches to welcome us throughout the beautiful cottage. Cozy and calm setting overlooking the fields
We spent our third visit to Belles Cottage within 2 years and our experience was as good if not better than our first 2 visits so much so we are planning our next stay with Jane and Fergus. This time around I had a conference in the city. I was able to balance my work at the conference with the “extra curricular” activities on tap in the Adelaide Hills and McLaren Vale. Jane’s attention to detail has not waivered. You will not be disappointed however please ensure you do not book the Cottage when we are planning our next trip to Adelaide! Geoff

Wedding stay
We stayed at Belles Cottage for our wedding night. We were amazed at how clean and stunning the place was. We used the 2-way open fireplace at night to create the cozy feel.
We also had a hit of tennis on the immaculate condition.
Jane was always easy to contact and we will definitely be back to stay for another anniversary! Thanks!

Absolutely incredible
Cannot fault this beautiful property. Stunning location, easy to access the Main Street in Stirling and exceptionally clean. The amenities and breakfast were so thoughtful and made us feel at home and comfortable.
Thank you to Jane for her incredible hospitality and making us feel so special. Your care for your guests is incredible. Photos do not do this property justice. We will be returning!

Second time around and we were not disappointed
This was our second stay at Belle's Cottage. We stayed longer this time (for a week). Our high expectations based on our last stay 6 months ago were met and exceeded! We are looking forward to our next stay
