About the hotel

Drink in the splendour of the renowned Adelaide Hills wine region from this exclusive adults-only retreat, awarded Tripadvisor’s 2025 #1 Luxury Hotel and #1 Small Hotel in Australia and The South Pacific. Be enveloped by beautifully appointed accommodation, breathtaking views of Mount Lofty and the Piccadilly Valley and over 170 years of history at the five-star Mount Lofty House Estate - Adults Retreat.

Heritage meets grandeur at this awe-inspiring 19th-century estate, reminiscent of a stately English country manor, with 30 acres of sprawling vines and manicured gardens. The cherry on top? The chef-hatted deliciousness at Hardy’s Verandah Restaurant.

After days spent exploring over 200 vineyards and cellar doors in the Adelaide Hills, Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale, treat yourself to a smoke-infused tipple at Arthur Waterhouse Lounge, soak up the views at Terrace Garden Bar or relax at the hands of an expert spa therapist at Gatekeeper’s Day Spa.

Great service!

I have just returned from my first holiday where I was astounded by the value for money, so on my return I went straight back online to book my next break. Excellent service received from Joel S today when I needed to amend my second booking. Happy days!
