Lovely Quaint Cottage
Had a lovely 4 day break in this lovely cottage in a quaint little town near a great pub! Hugh modern bathroom, big bedroom, very compact kitchen and living area which was quite small! Nice fire and reverse cycle a/c also worked well with the cold. Bacon and eggs, bread and milk were provided which was nice.

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.

This was a most fantastic cottage in the Clare Valley. The location was absolutely perfect in a quaint historic village nestled among so many great family wineries. The cottage was very well appointed with every amenity one could want including a very beautiful private backyard. We would rate it as a 20 out of 10 if we could!

Had a lovely stay at Mintaro Cottage. Very comfortable property with a cosy fireplace and quality amenities. Fridge was stocked with some local, quality breakfast provisions. Also received a complimentary bottle of local wine, which was a nice touch. Mintaro Cottage is so peaceful and quiet but just a short walk to the local pub (which served excellent meals). A great base for visiting some of the wineries in the Clare Valley or just relaxing and enjoying the gorgeous scenery in the surrounding area.
The whole stay was amazing, the spa, fireplace, private courtyard, the comfy bed and the supplies for breakfast.
It was very affordable, close to Clare to visit the wineries and grab some lunch.
We will definitely be going back, the perfect retreat without the kids!!!

Lovely stay in a lovely place! Nice bath big enough for 2 and everything you could need for a little stay (portable stovetop, kettle, sandwhich press, electric frypan). Lovely breakfast included which was very thoughtful and a wonderful bottle of red to share. Will be back and highly recommend!

Mintaro B & B
Overall was a very nice B & B. Food provisions were excellent aprt from no butter for the toast. Also there was no soap in the hand dispenser in the bathroom. Cleanliness was pretty good although we did notice the rug was a bit dirty. Nice touch with a bottle of wine provided and chocolate and Port available.
