Approximately 120km north of Adelaide, nestled in the Skilly hills, just 2 kmâs from the township of Watervale in the middle of the beautiful Clare Valley, Sir Walterâs Cottage opened in early 2020, 2 bedroom but 2-bathroom cottage located on Hughes Park, a large historic property and homestead . Originating from 1845, surrounded by beautiful vines and historic sheep farming country â perfect for a stroll and a photographerâs delight. We are family friendly and children are welcome. Snuggle up in front of the open fireplace in winter.
Lovely old cottage beautifully renovated. We appreciated having two bathrooms which is not easy to find. We would have liked to meet up with the hosts to say hello.
Booking was easy, check-in and out was a breeze. The accommodation was outstanding. Gorgeous location and so very well maintained. Very relaxing way to spend our short honeymoon - thank you
Restful, stunning private location, comfort and luxury. We loved the connection to nature, farming and history. Our most favourite property of all we stayed at in SA.
Very comfortable, well presented quality accomodation, in a private and country setting. We appreciated the kitchen breakfast supplies - no skimping here! We would love to come back!!
The property is set in natural grazing land, spacious and beautifulâŠa new view from every window.
The 1846 cottage has been entirely renovated and was pure heaven, peaceful days and nights seated around a potbelly with a great supply of wood.
Recommended either as a retreat from rush and bustle, and or , a base for exploring the Riesling trail ( is is only a drive of a few kilometers from Clare) and the many wineries of the area.
Highly recommended.

Our home for the days we stayed in the Clare Valley was situated 5 kms out of Watervale on a family owned property. It was quiet aside from the birdsâŠ.no traffic to bother us. The building dated from the mid 1880âs but had been fully renovated & was very comfortable. We will definitely stay at this address the next time we visit the Clare wine district. Highly recommended
Beautiful comfortable cottage, cozy combustion heater to keep us warm on the frosty nights . The Clare valley gave us beautiful wineries and lots of lovely eating places. Highly recommended the Watervale Pub!
Amazing place to stay. Could not fault the cottage. Very clean and modern facilities. Full kitchen is beautiful. Lovely spot to come home to after a day out to relax in front of the fire.
