Clarevale Cottage

Clare Valley


It's not the best-positioned B&B in the valley, next to the council depot and across the street from some state government offices, but viewed in isolation, it sure is pretty! Full kitchen, native gardens, an affable black cat and tulip-filled wine barrels complete the picture. The Riesling Trail is at the end of the street. Two-night minimum stay.
