Merilli1885

Wake to the sound of cattle in the paddocks and kookaburras in the gums. Step outside to find kangaroos grazing at the spring-fed dam ,reflecting the rolling hills of Currency Creek. This is what a stay at Merilli1885 feels like from the first morning.

Set on 90 private acres on South Australia's Fleurieu Peninsula, just an hour from Adelaide, Merilli1885 is exclusively booked for one group at a time. The beautifully restored and extended 1885 stone cottage, surrounded by 500-year-old gum trees and its own orchard, sleeps up to four across two king suites with private bathrooms. A spacious living room, bespoke kitchen, and unobstructed views of the hills from every window make it easy to stop thinking about everywhere else.

The working Angus cattle are part of a nationally recognised breeding program and visible from the cottage and surrounding paths throughout your stay. Hand-feed the horses from the paddock fence. Order paddock-to-plate Merilli Angus beef to enjoy during your stay. For guests who ride, bring your own horse and saddle up across Fleurieu farmland.


Middleton Beach is just seven minutes away. Port Elliot and Goolwa only ten minutes away, Victor Harbor twenty minutes, McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek, and Willunga Farmers Market are all within and easy thirty minute drive.
