About this property
Sandy Grapes Cottage: A McLaren Vale Adventure
Enjoy the best of McLaren Vale’s wine country from this charming cottage, perfect for families or small groups. Sip a steaming mug of hot chocolate by the crackling indoor fireplace, toast marshmallows beneath a starry sky at the backyard firepit, or linger over a long alfresco BBQ on the covered patio. Breathtaking beaches, a vibrant town centre, and over 90 world-class cellar doors, including d’Arenberg, Down The Rabbit Hole and Maxwell Wines, are just minutes from your perfect getaway.
Nestled in a leafy pocket with easy access to all McLaren Vale has to offer, this home embodies relaxed country living. Step into the inviting living room, sink into the sofas and let the warmth of the crackling wood fireplace set the scene as you unwind with your favourite TV shows.
Whip up comforting meals in the well-equipped kitchen, complete with an oven and dishwasher. Gather around the elegant dining table with seating for six, or step onto the covered patio, where the alfresco dining area and BBQ invite you to savour relaxed, open-air meals. As night falls, light the outdoor firepit, wrap yourself in a soft blanket, and sip a glass of McLaren Vale’s finest wine under a starlit sky. The sprawling backyard, overlooking a vineyard, is the perfect spot to unwind with a morning cuppa while the kids play safely in the open space.
Recharge in thoughtfully designed bedrooms, each fitted with ceiling fans for personalised comfort. Curl up in the primary bedroom’s inviting queen-sized bed, settle into the double bed in the second bedroom, or let kids retreat to the third bedroom with twin beds. Refresh in the sleek bathroom, featuring a walk-in rain shower and a separate toilet for added convenience.
Take care of your laundry needs with a washer. A travel cot and high chair are available on request. Secure on-site parking is provided for three cars in the driveway.
Due to local regulations, we can happily host you for up to 90 nights. Any bookings that exceed this duration will be cancelled by Vrbo.
