Great Stay at Johann's Cottage
This is a lovely cottage - in the main street of Tanunda, only a few hundred metres from the Tanunda Hotel. I stayed there for two nights with a friend and the hosts, Mark and Tanya, provided lots of extra 'goodies' to make the stay more enjoyable. Lots of historical memorabilia and superbly outfitted and decorated. A real 'step back in time'. We rated it 10/10.

Had a great stay. Cottage was great for our needs and located close to town centre. Very welcoming. Only downside was limited TV channels (no sport) in the evenings and no WiFi.

Great location
This was a comfortable and well-located accommodation. In the main street of Tanunda it was easy get to cafes and restaurants and good shopping - especially loved the Iron Cottage. The owners set us up with very welcoming complimentary goodies, biscuits, chocolate, wine, cereals and bread. Very thoughtful. Everything you needed was on site. Sleep was comfortable.

A quaint historical cottage in the heart of Tanunda
A historic well set up cottage with lots of memorabilia. Short walk to anywhere in Tanunda including the fabulous FermentAsian. A great base to explore all the Barossa has to offer. Be sure to go into APEX bakery another living historic site. Ask nicely and the team will let you in to see the original oven form 1924!! And the bread is amazing!!

Lovely old cottage in a great location
We enjoyed our stay in this cute cottage in the heart of Tanunda and really appreciated all of the generous touches in the house. My only complaint is that a couple of things were a little unclear on the description: while it does have air conditioning, it’s only in the living area and the rest of the house was stifling hot on a 40c day. Also, the living area can only be accessed from inside via one of the bedrooms. I understand that an old cottage can pose challenges but I do think this should have been made clear on the description

Charming and convenient
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was carefully decorated to evoke its history and it is very convenient to Tanunda town. Kitchen and bathroom are well-equipped and modern (no dishwasher for obvious reasons - there's no room). The rooms are small by modern standards, again reflecting its 19th-century origins. Someone with mobility limitations might find it a little inconvenient. But that is what comes with a charming historical property. Highly recommended for adults seeking a quiet retreat.

A beautifully appointed 1800's cottage featuring memorabilia from a past time. Great location in the heart of the Barossa , walking distance to the township of Tanunda, topped off by a generous "Welcome Pack" upon arrival. You will not be disappointed.

Charming, comfortable, convenient
Johann's Cottage is a delightful historic cottage which has been sensitively and stylishly decorated and updated to provide lovely accommodation in the central main street of Tanunda. It's easy to find, easy to live in and easy to use as a comfortable base for exploring the Barossa. The cottage displays many items and artefacts that reflect its history and add to the interest of a stay while the generous provisioning and signs of a warm welcome really make guests feel they made the right choice! Its location means Tanunda is super-easy to explore on foot and excellent restaurants like fermentAsian and 1918 are just a stroll away. Highly recommended.
