Welcome to our backyard.

A beautiful place steeped deep in history and the arts, nestled by our highly productive and picturesque landscape and home to some of the most exquisite produce and wine on the planet. Located in the Limestone Coast of South Australia, approximately half-way between Adelaide and Melbourne, the adjoining townships of Penola and Coonawarra provide the perfect place to immerse yourself with a strong community vibe and a busy food, music and cultural scene. Come for a few days — you may find yourself not wanting to leave.

“We both talked about how amazing it would be to immerse ourselves in the lifestyle here...”
Simon and Kerry Meares, Coonawarra Experiences Hear from the locals.
