Fodor's Expert Review Abbotsford Country House

Tranquility reigns at this antiques-filled property on 50 acres of rolling beef farm with Barossa views and an 800-plant rose garden. Silence and blissfully comfortable beds with super-high-thread-count Egyptian linens make drifting off easy. One of the eight rooms has a jetted tub, another a deep, claw-foot enamel bathtub, and the rest double showers. All have complimentary tawny and chocolate. Relax in your room or venture out to sit by the fireplace in the main house---or the outdoor firepit should the weather permit. Abbotsford’s renowned home-cooked breakfast, which uses local and farm-grown ingredients (from its vegetable garden and Angus cattle herd), will fuel you up for a day of exploring the valley.
