At the cottages

We are on a continual quest to think of all of the ways we can make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. We welcome guest feedback and use this to further develop package ideas and inclusions. We regularly update and refresh the decor and have a great working relationship with local interior design guru Jen from Decor Made Easy. Tina and Jen could spend hours talking about fabrics! Rachael and her guest services staff ensure that the rooms are prepared to a high standard and are always clean and fresh. It’s likely you will notice something new or different each time you come to stay, either with external developments, internal decor or new inclusions and package offerings.

Reggie, the naughty one!

I have learned that the only one that can give Reggie a command and he will obey is Evan.
Reggie and Tilly were up by the vineyard shed, having a sniff around. Whilst talking on the phone I became distracted and Reggie took full advantage of this and decided to go exploring. Tilly thought it was a fabulous idea and decide to go along and see what might eventuate.
First stop the lake, where both dogs took a little dip as it was a warm day, next a meander through the bush vine Grenache and then up to the Shiraz. The whole time I am calling him using a commanding voice, a cajoling voice and finally a pleading voice. Reggie always managed to be about three feet out of my reach, just enough distance for me to still see the disdainful look of pity he was sending me. By now all my hope of catching him or him actually obeying a command had completely dissolved, I thought i would be walking around the vineyard for hours!!
How was this resolved? I called Evan who drove up the vineyard driveway, one call and Reggie was by his side……..
he was in trouble for taking off, but, I don’t think he was too concerned.

Our complimentary wine

We have a new wine for the complimentary wine in the cottages – Michael Hall Wines, 2017 Sang de Pigeon Shiraz. The philosophy behind the crafting of Michael Hall wines is ‘slow wine’. Rather than moulding the fruit to a style, Michael is interested in passively crafting the wine with as few material inputs as possible: hand picking, maceration, wild yeasts, lees contact, barrel maturation and no filtration. Allowing the season and site to show themselves.
Michael Hall wines cellar door is located at the heritage listed 1860’s barn in the Langmeil pioneer settlement of the Barossa Valley. Taste and experience where artisan meets agriculture every Friday & Saturday 11am-5pm or make an appointment for a curated intimate tasting experience, contact Phillip or Michael to book your bespoke tasting next time you’re in town, info@michaelhallwines.com, +61 (0) 448 911 835
