A great weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at The Gums at Mclaren Vale. We had a busy day at wineries including walking down the road for lunch which was so easy. We will be going back there with all our family and would recommend this accommodation to our friends. Thank you. Velma Jones

Lovely convenient location. Nice, well equipped house.

We had a lovely time staying at Jillian’s house. The kids loved the kangaroos that hang around the house. Conveniently located near the main rd, close to wineries and not far to the beach. The house is perfect for two families with two master bedrooms and seperate living areas. We had a very relaxing stay.

Country getaway

Comfortable home with an charming 80s vibe. House is spacious and well laid out and had plenty of room for the six of us. We loved the open fires - and kept toasty warm all week long. Jillian is an extremely attentive and responsive host. We had a very relaxing break from city life!

The Gums Mc Laren Vale

This is a great house to stay in with a large family. The house has all the comforts you would expect and close to the town of Mc Laren Vale. Jillian is a great host and gave us some really good tips on local destinations and walks. We will be back Jillian!.

The perfect getaway

Absolutely magnificent property set In the beautiful Australian bush with sweeping views over some of the vineyards of this world class wine region. Quiet and peaceful, perfect for 4 couples, a 3 minute drive or 20 minute walk to the town and the property is even better than what you see on the web. Thouroughly recommend The Gums. Greg D
