Karawatha Cottages - PONDER COTTAGE

Karawatha Cottages provides guests a choice of 3 stylish cottages (UNWIND, RELISH and PONDER). The elevated position in the heart of the Blewitt Springs area of the beautiful McLaren Vale wine region offers guests sublime views over the surrounding vineyards and ranges, with numerous cellar doors and 2 excellent restaurants only a short walk away.

At Karawatha Cottages you will experience a calm, rural atmosphere surrounded by vineyards with the ever changing view of the Mount Lofty Ranges as the backdrop.

Feeling Stressed? Relax and unwind on the deck of your own self-contained cottage, tune out to the sound of Yellow-Tailed Black Cockatoos, Adelaide Rosellas and the ever lovely sounds of Magpies.

Quite the wine buff? Why not visit one or more of the many cellar doors in walking distance (Geddes Wines, Beresford, Woodstock to name just a few).

Cannot bother to cook dinner? How about a delicious meal at the award winning Current Shed restaurant, which is just around the corner.

The views and location were excellent. Bed was a little too hard and breakfast provisions could have been a bit better, but overall an excellent place to stay.
