The Mintaro Hideaway heritage accommodation is situated in the heart of the historic township of Mintaro
in the Clare Valley wine region, just a one and a half hour drive from Adelaide.

This original C1856 heritage listed stone carpenters residence now provides three character filled self contained apartments, all with their own log fires and luxurious spas.

The old world charm of our secluded one bedroom apartment with its own private courtyard is the perfect romantic retreat for couples, while family and friends relax and unwind in one of our rustic two bedroom apartments with a beautiful cottage garden setting.

Explore and discover the charm and beauty of a bygone era on a self guided walk along the Mintaro Heritage Trail. Take a leisurely stroll to one of the local restaurants, wineries and attractions or just relax with a glass of wine and a good book in the secluded courtyard.

Mintaro Hideaway appeals to couples, families and small groups looking for that memorable place to stay for a special occasion or a well deserved getaway.

You will come to understand why people from all around the world are captivated by the tranquility, uniqueness and beauty of this very special place and return again and again.
