AMAZING STAY! We celebrated our first year anniversary here - we booked the Stone Villa We wanted something that was off the beaten track, quiet and secluded. We didn't see anyone until late on our second afternoon when I think one of the owners was walking her dog and it came up to us! All the finishings in the Eco Villa were amazing, starting from the heated bathroom floor that automatically turned on twice a day, to the CBUS lighting and not forgetting the skylight that allowed us to lay in bed and look at the stars. We were worried that we would be woken up by bright sunlight in the morning, but after the first morning we weren't too concerned as it wasnt bothersome. Bonus was that it was a retractable cover on it so we could open and close it whenever we wanted to. The bed was HUGE and a little soft for our liking but comfortable! Special little touches like heart chocolates beside the bed, a choice of complimentary Riverland wine (red or white or sparkling) was waiting for us, plus a cheese and fruit/nut platter. Breakfast provisions were generous, including two types of cereal, milk, a whole loaf of bread, condiments, yoghurt etc. Coffee was provided in pod format, also local ground coffee and instant was there if we needed it. The kitchen amenities were well supplied, even olive oil and basic spices were there for us if we wanted to use it. There was even a bottle of tawny port with two shot glasses if we so wanted to partake (I did!) We used the BBQ both nights using local produce, it was simply bliss sitting on the balcony sipping wine, eating Barossa cheese and drinking Riverland wine. The spa is amazing, BIG and warm. Im sure we spent a few hours in there at night during the course of our weekend. The bathroom was exceptional, we were a little hesitant upon seeing the tall window next to the shower but literally not a soul was around us so we lost our inhibitions. The shower was wonderful for couples with two rain shower heads, add in the heated flooring and it was exceptional! The location is great, a short distance over the ferry at Lyrup to get to Renmark I cant wait to come back and try the other Villas they have! A+++++ read more
