THE EXPERIENCE:

Nestled in the tranquil countryside of Watervale, South Australia, Battunga Cottages – Galah offers an enchanting adults-only retreat. Picture yourself in one of four beautifully styled self-contained units, each reminiscent of the 19th century and designed for ultimate privacy with separate entrances. Imagine stepping out onto your own charming patio, where a trellis draped in grapevines overlooks fragrant lavender hedges and lush gardens. As dusk falls, there’s a soothing little symphony of birdsong and Galah provides the perfect blend of relaxation and exploration in one of the state’s premier wine regions.

Galah can host up to 4 guests, with accommodation for a total of 12 guests across all cottages. Choose between a two-bedroom or a one-bedroom layout, or book all four for that long-overdue getaway with friends. Each cottage features a separate living area, kitchenette, bathroom, and a cosy wood fireplace.

Awaken to the delightful sounds of magpies, galahs, and kookaburras. Start your day with a generous farmhouse breakfast basket filled with locally sourced treats: freshly baked, homemade bread, eggs from Battunga’s hens, local butcher bacon, cereals, juice, and spreads—all provided for every night of your stay. Kerry and Mark are happy to accommodate dietary needs with advance notice, and there are delightful local snacks, fruit and thoughtful touches to enhance your experience – local cheeses, olives, dip, crackers and wine to enjoy. You will be hard pressed to come across such generosity in a B&B!

Kerry and Mark’s are amazingly generous hosts. Their dedicated hospitality ensures such memorable stays, and Battunga Cottages – Galah embodies the charm of the region. Celebrated as the ‘Voters Choice’ in South Australia’s Top Tourism Town Awards 2021 and the ‘Travellers Choice’ Award in 2022, this retreat is truly special.

For groups, Battunga offers a range of self-contained cottages. “Galah” and “Parrot” each feature two bedrooms, while “Kookaburra” and “Rosella” are perfect for solo travellers or couples. With sumptuous bedrooms and great location, Battunga guarantees comfort and relaxation.

The location is perfect – a short walk to the ridge above the cottage and you are right on the Clare Valley Wine and Wilderness Trail. In the other direction is the picturesque road to the Blue Gum Lookout and the walking trails of the Spring Gully Conservation Park, one leading to the Cascades waterfall and panoramic views to the west.

Explore Clare’s renowned trail by bike, soaking in the breathtaking views along one of South Australia’s best cycling routes. Delight in gourmet food trails or unwind on your private verandah under starlit skies, sipping local wine as you watch the sunset over the vineyards.

Just a stone’s throw away, the award-winning Watervale Hotel beckons with Clare’s finest produce and local wines—an essential stop for any visitor. Don’t forget to ask about Kerry’s mid-week “Keep Your Gin Up” tours for a unique local experience!

Whether you’re celebrating a wedding, gathering with friends, or simply seeking a relaxing getaway, Battunga offers both privacy and group accommodation options. If you’re traveling with a well-behaved pet, be sure to obtain pre-approval from Kerry or Mark for a pet-friendly stay, complete with strict terms and conditions.

Discover the charm of Battunga Cottages – Galah and see for yourself why it’s the perfect retreat in Clare’s stunning wine country.
