Bella vista
Amazing property and experience for the 5 days i stayed here. A truly unique experience in the Adelaide Hills, there is nothing like it. House has all possible homely comforts, quality furniture and bedding, but most of all, a massive fireplace with ample wood with views to die for.

A weekend is not long enough!
We loved our stay at Mt Torrens. The house is absolutely beautiful with massive, well laid out rooms. All the rooms had a view that you could find a sun filled spot inside and just watch the world and the animals go bye! Highly recommend staying longer than just a weekend. Thank you Sasha

About the host

Hosted by Sasha Parletta

Host profile image
This contemporary home has been uniquely designed and built in 2015 by the owners as a labor of love; a tribute to the land, bringing the outside in with the warmth of double glazed glass windows, corrugated iron features, polished concrete floors & paddock stone hand extracted from the land & beautifully crafted by the owner to form the striking stone façade and internal fireplace.

Why they chose this property

With beautiful wineries at our doorstep, the half way point from Adelaide to Mannum & approx. 30 min to the Barossa Valley region wouldn't you and your friends like to enjoy a nice glass of local wine in front of the crackling huge fireplace and explore what the Adelaide Hills has on offer?

What makes this property unique

Our home is very unique as we are a fully self-sufficient property, fully powered by a solar system, utilises rain water yet complete with all the modern luxuries with a cozy and rustic feel. With no mains electricity & no mains water, experience life with no bills, rolling hills, no traffic, animals at the back fence & peace and quiet!
Be AMAZED!!
