Weekend away
The views from this property are stunning. The weather was perfect, we were able to sit back and relax in front of the outdoor firepit, with a glass of wine. The neighbouring cows were very cute and friendly. This was a great way to enjoy my 50th birthday.

What a beautiful place. After coming home from a long day in the Adelaide Hills we were greeted by the friendly live stock. Then settling in for a quiet night in front of a cosy fire. We will definitely be back and also recommend it to our friends.

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

Absolutely loved the house and surroundings Open fire , plenty of wood supplied by hosts Quiet peaceful and lots of animals even a couple kangaroos said hello ! Only thing I could recommend is a couple dishwashing tablets for each day and some floor mats / shower Heating is only the open fire as the air con can’t be used due to solar powered house only A back up little fan heater would be ideal if power source could handle it Fantastic place and hosts Graham and Debbie

Winter Getaway
Bella Vista Farm house is a lovely home tucked away in Mount Torrens. Surrounded by farms with cows, sheep and llama's, its a 1hr drive from the city and a 45 minute drive to Wolf Blass and Maggie Beer Farm. The fire place was great as we sat on the lounge watching tv while drinking local wine & eating locally made cheese. We had a great time away and will be sure to come back soon.

One night only
Beautiful panoramic property. Large house very high ceilings polished concrete floors. Think better suited to summer/ warm weather stays. Mid May was quite cold for us although once combustion heating fired up was ok. Suit a group of 3 couples for 2-3 days or longer. We were attending a celebration very nearby so Owner kindly allowed us a one night stay, normally has a min 2 night stay. Good kitchen & bathrooms, 2 living areas & lots of movies/books etc. A well managed property being totally off grid. Well worth the experience.

My husband and I stayed here for our 20 year wedding anniversary. Views were lovely and the house was fantastic - very peaceful and quiet. No issues with being off grid, I think it is great and would love to see more houses built like this. The open fireplace in the main lounge was a big plus.

Perfect stay for our wedding
The breathtaking views and house is just picture perfect! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here for our wedding preparations and wedding night. The natural lighting coming through the large windows was perfect for our photos. We will definitely come back to the Bella Vista Farm Stay again, perhaps for a cozy winter weekend stay spent sitting by the fire. Thank you so much Sasha!

Be sure to read into the listing as only the very bare minimum is provided for your use. Great location for a bridal party if your wedding is in the area - the ‘getting ready’ photos are amazing!

Lovely property in a lovely location
Property is beautiful and very conveniently set up with ensuites in each room. Location is perfect. Owner is very easy to communicate with and very accommodating and helped us with late changes. Only suggestion would be supply of basic toiletries & towels as it’s not very convenient for interstate guests to bring these in hand luggage. Otherwise stay was perfect, thank you

Great house as we could all have our own room and bathroom. The off grid concerned us a little but once you are there its not as bad as you would think - we managed to keep the fires burning and didn't run out of power or hot water!
