We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Thalia. From the welcoming bottle of wine, yummy breakfast supplies and friendly blue wrens and abundant bird life, we could not fault our stay. Access was smooth and easy, beds were comfy and the outdoor aesthetics absolutely charming. Would highly recommend.

Our family stayed at Thalia Getaway for a long weekend and we were looking for a place to relax and unwind. This house definitely delivered. Such a beautiful well looked after historic stone home, in a gorgeous surrounding. Photos cannot capture the serene country atmosphere this place radiates. While we stayed we even had a friendly visit from the neighbors dog who was a great 'guide ' for our kids as they explored the property collecting lemons and wild watermelons.

Thalia getaway is a wonderful property steeped in character and history and surrounded by nature. My partner and I stayed for two nights and we were sad to leave! Richard and Diane were warm and welcoming hosts and made the remote check-in process smooth. On arrival we were instantly in love with the beautiful home and surrounding garden hosting a range of friendly bird life. There were many added touches that made the stay convenient and comforting such as the wood fire and supplies stocked, the breakfast foods and local wine. The DVDs made for a nice evening entertainment. There wasn't a single thing we thought the place was missing or we wished we were supplied by the hosts. It was truly a comprehensive service. Like other reviews, it's worth repeating that the photos simply don't do it justice. The architecture and renovation of the home has been done in a great way that balances a mix of modern and heritage - some of the interior pieces reminded me of the home I grew up in as a kid. We thank Richard and Diane for sharing their magical getaway and appreciate the love and care that has gone in to the place. Cannot recommend enough to others considering staying. We look forward to visiting again, hopefully for longer next time!

Highly recommended. Thalia was even better than the pictures. Everything you could need is provided. Generous fresh breakfast supplies, cooking implements, lovely heritage furniture, great big bath. Spacious. Lovely outdoor areas. Close to the river. Feel like you're in the middle of nowhere even though you're not far from Mount Barker or Adelaide. Lovely hosts. Thanks for having me!

My friends and I had a wonderful weekend at Thalia. The house has all the modern conveniences and has peace and tranquility from arrival to departure. The wood fire and excess of wood was greatly appreciated in the cold weather. It would have been helpful if we were asked how many rooms we required, as to have one locked was frustrating for a group of friends (not partners). Also the rain shower head was broken, but at least there was another to use.
