Dairyman's Cottage

Great authentic farm experience, Michael is very welcoming. Close to Barossa towns and wineries. Comfortable beds and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Our kids loved getting to see the cows and pigs in the farm and particularly loved farm dog Jimmy.

OMG, the list is so long. 10 out of 10 breakfast. Dairyman butter, bacon, sausages, fresh local farmed mushrooms, eggs & artisan bread is just the start. Great coffee, wine & chocolates. Walking the cows in on a balmy night was so relaxing. Being out of the town, down a gravel road, that was only 10 min from Lyndoch was perfect. The huge gum trees on the farm were magnificent. The perfect get-a-way.

The nonstick cookware was deteriorated, so we bought a new frypan from IGA at Lyndoch (at a great price for a quality frypan). Actually a bonus. No fly swatter

A great place to stay with kids! Owner is very helpful. Array of farm animals to visit and delicious bacon, ham, eggs and sausages provided

The bed was quite comfortable.

The bathroom was like a shower recess. There were no glass or walls to contain the splash from a waterfall shower head such that the entire bathroom floor other than one dirty corner was wet with each shower. There was an odour of either stale cows milk or animal fat when you entered the space. The kitchen was adequate but needs a refresh. There were copious and generous supplies of farm produce supplied. You could call it all rustic and chic or dirty and neglected depending on your point of view. The location was OK but not great. It is our first time to the Barossa. We would choose differently next time. Our contact with the host was minimal. He was clearly busy organising an eating venue attached to the property. On one of the three nights we stayed there this work continued until after 2:00am. At $300 per night you can stay in a 4-5star hotel suite in the Adelaide CBD.
