Independent Clare Valley hotels

"fabulous hosts with the most unique accommodation can’t wait to go again "

"The Daisy Cottage was quaint very quiet and relaxing place. Loved the Breakfast basket of food well stock. We will be back"

"Lovely place to stay in a quiet little town. Fireplace was cozy with plenty of firewood, well stocked kitchen with ample delicious breakfast supplies and a complimentary bottle of wine which was actually very good. Everything was spotlessly clean. If you need to contact the host though, use a text message not a message through your booking platform as this was not read."

"I didn’t like the parking. Not enough room"

"Great stay"

"We had a lovely stay at Reillys Wines Heritage Cottages in Mintaro. The cottage has a charming, rustic feel, and we especially loved the fireplace—it made the evenings so cosy. The wine tasting at Reillys Wine Cellar was excellent, with some great local drops. Breakfast was a nice touch too—everything provided, including local bacon, fresh eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, fruit, juice, and milk. Very generous and much appreciated. Parking was easy, and the location is fantastic—just a short walk to the Magpie and Stump Hotel for a meal or a drink. The whole area is steeped in history, with beautiful old cottages and churches all around. You’re also close to the rest of the Clare Valley, with its stunning scenery and some great restaurants nearby. That said, I do think the cottage could benefit from a bit of a refurb to freshen things up—it’s full of character, but starting to feel a little tired. Overall, it’s a great base for exploring the Clare Valley and soaking up the heritage and charm of Mintaro"

"Exceptional, well equipped, warm and toasty in winter. Vicky was welcoming upon arrival, would definitely come back."
