If you're looking for a 'home away from home' while in the Barossa, Mel's place is IT! From the quality of fittings and stylish layout to the wonderful welcome pack and information on local Angaston and Barossa attractions and activities, Mel's place had it all. It is a gorgeously renovated cottage with sparkling new bathroom and laundry, quality kitchen fittings and very comfortable beds. Mel ensured it was spotlessly clean - including extra foil in the Smeg oven to catch any drips. The house was as depicted in the photos but with much more outdoor space to which photos just don't do justice. Sitting in either of the covered outdoor areas with views across to the sheep and alpacas grazing on the hill while listening to the cockatoos and parrots in the creek-side gum trees made us feel as if we were a million miles away - but in fact, it was only a short walk up into the main part of Angaston where there is something for everyone. Being central to many wineries, taking a taxi was easy too. There were no 'downsides' to staying at Mel's place! Easy to find, great location, excellent communication - highly recommended.
