"We have travelled the world and have never stayed in a more beautiful place. The accommodation, ambience, surroundings, birdlife, generous food provisions and outstanding attention to detail are second to none."

"I think I've gone to heaven! Why would anyone want to stay in a "same old, same old" hotel? This is what real hospitality is all about."

"We thought the website looked good, but nothing prepares you for the utter beauty and indulgence of this place. We are speechless with admiration!"
Locality
Basket Range is an historic tiny township in the centre of the outstanding, cool and always green Adelaide Hills wine region. It lies in the steepest part of the Mount Lofty Ranges, its steep slopes dotted with apple and cherry orchards. The views over the surrounding hills are breathtaking.

This is the perfect location for exploration, indulgence, romance, rest and relaxation, and still within easy reach of the city. Great wineries and first class restaurants, fabulous regional food, walking trails and wildlife. Ideally situated to explore the Barossa and Clare Valleys and the Fleurieu Peninsula.
Property
Waratah Cottage, a charming four-roomed cottage, is the perfect, intimate retreat for honeymooners and romantics. Fully self-contained and completely private, with every modern amenity for an indulgent stay. (Fenced for canine companions, who are welcome by arrangement.)

Hillgrove House, built in the 1870s, is an elegantly restored country house which provides accommodation for up to four people in two private, self-contained adjoining suites. Great for friends travelling together or exclusive occupancy for just two people. (Fenced for canine companions, who are welcome by arrangement.)
