About this property
Vintners Retreat: Stylish Retreat near Sea & Vines
Vintners Retreat offers a peaceful escape with luxurious Queen size bed, a cosy sofa to enjoy the wood combustion fire or appreciate the cooling air con.
With its own separate entrance, the Retreat is a completely private studio space for you to enjoy.
Fully equipped kitchen with stove top, microwave and pod coffee machine, and BBQ in your own private courtyard, plus use of lounge poolside means you can eat al fresco watching the spectacular sunsets.
The Retreat has a large bathroom with walk in shower and ample storage.
Swim in our heated pool - from mid Sept to end of April - with amazing views.
Tea, fresh Cuban and pod coffee, and all the basic necessities you need are supplied. Breakfast is not supplied but Maxwell's Grocery & Cafe in Aldinga old village does great breakfasts and coffee. (206 Port Rd, Aldinga SA 5173).
Parking is available in the car port. Access to the Retreat is along the side of the main building, clearly signposted.
You can relax in the various chillout zones scattered around the property. You have sole use of the pool and gardens during your stay. (We do have a private garden area for Billy, The Westie).
We will be available as much as possible to meet you on arrival, however a key will be left out for you to let yourself in. After parking in the guest car port, clear signage will guide you to the Vintners Retreat. We will be available by 'phone or in person, if you wish, for the duration of your stay. You will be given a very warm welcome by the super-friendly Westie, Billy!
We are based on the edges of McLaren Vale vines and our local pub is the historic Victory Hotel. We are a short drive from Willunga township - check out the award winning Farmer's Market held in the Town Square every Saturday morning.
We are also close to fantastic restaurants - The Salopian Inn, The Star of Greece, The Currant Shed and Maxwells (winery & restaurant) being firm favourites!
Sellicks Beach is mere minutes away from us and Port Willunga beach a little further on - it's definitely worth a visit with soft sands, gentle waves and we always see a dolphin or two!
You'll need a car to get around the McLaren Vale region.
With notice, we can arrange wine tours with Chook of Chook's Little Winery Tours. He creates tailor-made guided tours with lunch included so you can fully experience and enjoy the amazing wineries McLaren Vale has to offer. (www.chookslittlewinerytours.com.au)

The most wonderful location, very serene and relaxing with beautiful views. The retreat has everything you could possibly need for a weekend away, every tiny detail has been thought about. The pool and garden are stunning and the retreat is beautifully furnished and was very clean.
Lovely property, spotlessly clean and a pretty garden and location. Really peaceful which was just what we needed. The bed was very comfortable too. Leigh was a great host and Billy was sweet too.
We appreciated the cleanliness and overall quality of the accommodation, and the friendliness of the hosts! Set in a tranquil location, this B&B is the best!
Very clean, comfortable and well presented. Host very obliging and has thought of everything you might need. Very generous breakfast supplies. Lovely private courtyard and swimming pool. Definitely recommend.
We had the most relaxing time in such a beautiful place. We enjoyed the surroundings (Sellicks Beach, Aldinga Beach and Willunga) and the heated swimming pool. We will definitely come back.
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Vintners Retreat. A solo getaway in the country with the peace and quiet was divine. A great sized pool I had a ball! Perfect size cottage for 1 or 2 people, comfy bed, all the kitchen and bathroom necessities you can think of with little surprises thrown in on arrival. Great location. Thank you so much Leigh.
My husband and I spent two nights here. The accommodation itself is just beautiful. The grounds, pool, and all the special high quality touches, including substantial breakfast provisions, made our stay a stand out and we will definitely be back. Leigh was lovely and greeted us on arrival making check in easy. It’s also perfectly located to explore the beaches of port willunga and aldinga and also mclaren vale.
Could not recommend more!
Excellent stay, perfect location. Loved the pool. Breakfast supplied was amazing. We loved our stay the room was perfect. And we were well positioned for our outings to McLaren vale and Aldinga beach.
Beautifully appointed, stunning location and wonderful hosts!
Beautifully appointed, stunning location and wonderful hosts! Spotless and well thought out design for two. The breakfast provisions were amazing as was the little wood fire for a cold winters night. Great location for exploring beaches and vines!
Photo's don't do this place justice! Stylish, spacious & private with very thoughtful touches like organic smoked bacon, eggs for breakfast and freshly baked bread. It is well kitted out with everything you need to cook if you were to stay home and enjoy the most of the fireplace in the winter as it was freezing outside.
There is also an awesome swimming pool you can use during summer.
Plenty of amazing beaches, beautiful wineries to visit & restaurant's to experience.
Can't wait to be back!
