About this property

40 Acre Retreat -rural seclusion, central location

This large, spacious and comfortable home with its roaring fire and reverse cycle air-cooling, has a fully equipped kitchen, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and open plan living, making it an ideal property for couples and families alike.

40 Acre Retreat offers the perfect location as either a central base for enjoying the wine and food tasting experiences of the Barossa or to relax and catch up with friends and family in privacy, surrounded by the grape vines, birds chirping, while watching the sheep meander in the paddocks.

Enjoy the peace and tranquility of country living amongst the vines and the gums while being conveniently located 5 minutes or less from the Barossa Valley’s top wine and food attractions; Tanunda, Seppeltsfield, Maggie Beers, Hentley Farm, Whistler Wines, Torbreck, Appellation’s Restaurant and only a short walk to Two Hands cellar door.

Please note we can not hold any type of functions ie. weddings, engagement parties etc at the 40 Acre Retreat, it is a guest house only.

The 40 Acre Retreat is holiday accommodation, we do not supply breakfast. The closest supermarket is 7 minutes drive, which is open 7am -8pm and there are many great eateries in the Barossa, ask us for more info of where to go.

This is also a working sheep farm, we love that you want to bring your dog on holiday and try to accommodate that, the yard is sheep proof not dog proof, if you feel your furry friend might be a little too interested in the sheep then our property might not work for you.
