“Perfect base for exploring the Clare Valley.”
+Very comfortable, warm house in a good locationfor doing the Riesling Trail and visiting the wineries of the Clare Valley. The kitchen was well equipped for self-catering, with excellent breakfast supplies provided. The host was very helpful when we locked ourselves out, thanks Sue 🙂 Would definitely recommend.

“A nice place to stay.”
+A very cute little cottage located very conveniently beside the Riesling Trail. It's an older sytyle house that has been renovated, and is clean and modern. The kitchen is well equipped, spacious and clean. Provisions (and plenty of them) had been left in the refrigerator for breakfast. The town of Clare is very worth of a visit and we'll be sure to visit again as we didn't really get to see all of the sights. There are some great wineries to visit.
−The floors in the two front bedrooms were very creaky and really should be looked at.

“Quiet, comfy, convenient.”
+Great location, (short walk to the town centre), off-street parking, clean and roomy house, 'a home from home'. flexible re check-in time which in itself was very easy; despite being located in what looked like a commercial area it was very quiet. Everything needed re kitchen utensils etc was supplied, as was breakfast. Would def stay again :)
−Nothing particularly, but being picky:- being two couples another hairdryer for bathroom 2 would have been handy, kitchen window let in a fair amount of water during heavy overnight rain. Stay was too short :)

“We had a nice stay but there are things that could be done without spending a lot of money to improve the property.”
+It was spacious and clean.
−Need a heat light in second bathroom given that it is the closest to main bedroom. Towels need updating. The steps up and down to main bedroom and second bathroom, also the steps near the front door are a trip hazard. An air con unit in the main bedroom would be great.
