Dennis Cottage Clare Valley

The space
Dennis is a beautiful two-storey cottage with a Mediterranean flavour at the gateway to the glorious Clare Valley. Wine, local produce, rolling pastures and peace. Unspoilt and beautiful, yet only an hour and a half from Adelaide. A magic getaway for two people or two couples.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A spacious well-equipped kitchen features an under bench oven, cooktop, microwave, full-size fridge, dishwasher, capsule coffee machine (coffee pods included), tea selection, the very best of knives, cooking utensils, crockery and glassware. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking your meals and is supplied with cooking necessities such as cooking oil, salt, pepper, and sugar.

Leading from the kitchen is a separate dining room that looks onto the rose garden and down towards Dennis Creek. There are large French doors so you can savour the beautiful garden while dining.

The cozy combustion fireplace (with complimentary wood) is wonderful to sit around on cold nights and there are plenty of things to entertain yourself with - smart TV with Netflix (!), high-speed complimentary WI-FI, a DVD movie library, games, books & a smart speaker to play your favourite music.

Two light-filled upstairs bedrooms, both with full ensuite and walk-in dressing rooms with floor-to-ceiling mirrors. Queen-size bed in both bedrooms with high-quality linen. Guest amenities such as shampoo & conditioner, shower gel and a hair dryer are provided.

A separate downstairs spa room with a large triangle spa bath is ideal for a couple to soak away the stress of city life, share a glass of complimentary wine and relax. High-quality Turkish Cotton towels & robes are provided.

There are two areas to relax in outside the cottage. Nestling at the rear is a private courtyard garden with a wishing well. There is a teak outdoor setting, a market umbrella & a BBQ.

A covered veranda graces the front of the cottage overlooking the rose garden. Amongst the giant pepper gums sits a quaint antique street lamp and further down a small bridge crosses Dennis Creek. This is a lovely spot to watch the sunset in the evening.

Our complimentary provisions include:
- Bottle of Velvet & Willow wine of your selection
- Drinks including beer, soft drinks & bottled water
- Coffee pods & milk
- Tea selection
- Hot chocolate
- Treats
Additionally you get a free coffee voucher, a wine discount voucher and a breakfast voucher from our beautiful neighbours at Velvet & Willow Pantry which is just next door.

We found the two storey cottage to be even lovelier than it had appeared in the photographs as it is surrounded by a wonderful garden. Very private, although close to the main street and the grounds of the nearby cafe. Comfortable beds and the living areas/kitchen made our stay very enjoyable. The additional provisions for breakfast as well as wine and choccies made our stay memorable and were greatly appreciated.

The cottage is a wonderful place to stay. It is a relaxing space with a wonderful outdoors space to relax in. The house is well provisioned and the gift of a bottle of wine was well appreciated. The location is perfect for exploring the wineries and walks of the Clare Valley. We loved staying there

We enjoyed our stay. It was comfortable, had everything we needed, has a lovely, tranquil garden & the spa was definitely great after a 50km bike ride. The added extras such as chocolates, a bottle of wine, bacon, eggs, a loaf of bread & water bottles was an added bonus. (Just sorry that Velvet & Willow Wines was not open over the Xmas/NY - would have loved to have stopped in there.) Thank you for letting us stay, Ileen & Richard.

We loved this little cottage providing is with all the facilities we needed and situated in a beautiful garden. Attached to the property was another little cottage and a cafe/wine tasting space. The cafe was open early every morning for a great coffee. The location for our visit, a wedding, was perfect and then close to some of the best vineyards of the Clare Valley. We had no problems with our booking and entry. Highly recommend!
