Absolutely Amazing!
Everything was just perfect from the minute we arrived. We were given champagne on arrival, bags beat us to our room from the car. The welcome drink and history of the house was amazing -Chris was fantastic! Food was to die for and our room was just gorgeous. I could not fault anything in our stay and wished it was longer.

My wife & I thought we would celebrate our 55th wedding anniversary somewhere special and are very pleased we chose Mt. Lofty House. From the moment we stepped up to reception the mood was set for a beautiful stay. I could prattle on for hours so let me just say go and try it out for yourself.
