We loved everything about our stay at Stephanette's Cottage. Anette is the perfect hostess and made our stay extremely comfortable and easy. We arrived on Easter Friday and provisions for breakfast, snacks, wine, port and chocolate were provided for the Easter long weekend. This was unexpected but we were extremely grateful as it took the stress away of needing to buy supplies on a public holiday. It also meant we were on 'holiday and relaxation mode' as soon as we arrived. The attention to detail is impeccable and it really felt like staying at somebody's very loved home rather than accommodation. With a vineyard right outside your door, you feel totally immersed in the beauty of the Barossa Valley.
The only very minor improvement could be thicker or better quality pillows on the bed but we still had comfortable sleeps.

The goods supplied by the host were high quality and there was a good variety for the breakfast and great bread. The cottage was super cute and extremely clean and well maintained. The backyard is beautiful with the scenery and the spa is also amazing a must.
Nothing! Place was very clean and exceeded my expectations. We loved it.

Very generous breakfast provisions and great location. Really quiet and peaceful stay with only a few occasional cars off in the distance that could be heard. The bed was extra comfy and the jacuzzi made all the difference. The extra goodies were also really appreciated.
Would've been great to have Netflix on the TV. Parking is in the open - so the car got pretty dirty under the gum tree.

Stephanette's Cottage provides extremely comfortable, spacious and private accommodation for a couple. For our winter stay we especially liked the underfloor heating and the fire place. The hosts were very welcoming and friendly - having started the fire and turned on the heating prior to our arrival. They gave us an excellent run through the facilities in the cottage before leaving us alone but made it clear we could call on them as we needed. The room had more facilities than we were expecting although some things we did not find immediately. On day two we found the tea in a little cabinet on the wall at the left hand end of the kitchen bench. Coffee was at the other end. We kept intending to try the spa but we never did. Too busy enjoying the fire inside. We used the cottage as a base for the evenings - getting up early each morning to go and explore the area leaving at about seven and returning at five in the afternoon. If we didn't get up and get going it would have been too easy to stay in all day. A huge range of breakfast supplies were provided from cereal to bacon, eggs tomato and mushrooms, that easily got us through three days. And also a number of bottles of wine. My wife was very impressed with the cereal provided. We ate lunches out and snacked in the evening on whatever foods had taken our fancy while out and about during the day. The cottage is close to the Barossa Farmer's Market that is open on Saturday mornings.
We loved the location of the cottage and found it central to all locations in the valley but also very private and quiet. You have to travel by car to any of the locations in the Barossa Valley we selected to visit and at best you could have selected accommodation adjacent to one of them. Nearby (5 min by car) Nuriootpa has the Barossa Distilling Co (could have been tempted to settle in for the evening) and the Barossa Fresh Foodlands (has a huge range of local products at the deli).
Only thing that could have been better is we could not find a facility guide in the room. Would be good to be able to confirm the information we were given on arrival. Never did find the wifi password but it wasn't important enough to go and ask. And it took some effort to figure out the coffee pod machine never having owned one.
The roads near the property have no footpaths and when we were there the verge was not mown making it feel unsafe to walk on. We had initially thought to walk to the farmers - probably a bit over over an hour each way - but decided against it.

Everything!
The cottage was beautiful, clean, quiet, had everything we could need and then more.
Fantastic bathroom, comfy bed, cozy living area.
Plus a lot of little extras that were just amazing
Nothing!
This is the perfect cottage for our first kid-free getaway in over a year.
The only thing I didn't like was leaving.
6.0
Location was great, wine and port provided on arrival were both a nice touch. Close to two towns and some excellent wineries. Host also very friendly and dog very lovely. Other facilities in the cottage good, great shower, living room area pleasant and provisions for brekky were all local and good quality. Outdoor spa is good though not entirely private.
Two single duvets on a double bed seems odd...have seen other comments about it as well and clearly an issue. Lack of air-con in the bedroom a bigger issue though, gets very warm and given the mossies in the area makes it risky to sleep without cover. Also seems fairly pricey in hindsight vs other options in the area. Booking mentioned bike hire and tennis courts (not available without paying more for) which was a little disappointing. Large number of earwigs in the area...possibly part and parcel of the area but not ideal.
