Welcome to Blacksmith Cottage. This truly unique abode is the perfect choice if you are looking to book a stay that has the world at your fingertips. Located on Old Coach Road in sunny Aldinga, it conveniently creates a country-feel stay a mere five minute drive from the beach. Aldinga’s many small business shops, cafes, restaurants are in abundance - some even located right next door! (Did we mention the cute gelati shop yet?!) Interested in another convenient neighbour? Mclaren Vale’s famous wine region creating yet another not-to-be missed experience.
Steeped in history, The Blacksmith Hub (the site which we call home) is located in the heart of the rejuvenated Aldinga Township. Established in 1859 as Pengilly’s Blacksmith Shop it now presents as the Goodness Coffee Company (Coffee Roastery and Espresso Bar), The Little Rickshaw (Vietnamese dining), Spoilt Rotten Hair (Beauty Salon), Willunga Gelato (in summer) and of course our beloved Blacksmith Cottage. The precinct is popular for both locals and tourists alike providing a chic, eclectic and peaceful atmosphere with many sitting spaces to relax with friends or find a quiet spot for yourself to read a book or work on your laptop.
On weekends Blacksmith Hub is quite busy and plays host to a variety of live music acts until late at night. This is hosted just outside our home so please be mindful of this when booking on the weekends!
Upon arrival at Blacksmith Cottage you’ll immediately feel as though you`re at home and ready to put your feet up. Ornate fireplaces, original stonewalls, raw timbers, polished concrete, slate floors and exposed brick creates a home that will spark the curiosity in all as you make your way through just waiting to see what secrets each room holds. Entry into our home is via lock box for ease of access 24/7.
The living room is perfect for relaxing in the lounge, wasting the day away with a delicious La Crema coffee in hand and a ‘can’t put it down’ book by the window. Or pass the day idly by just ‘switching off’ in front of the television - that is of course- if you choose stay home to enjoy it with all the location has to offer!
The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need for a comfortable stay including a new double oven, induction cooktop, fridge, dishwasher and plenty of wine glasses! Take a seat at our 4 seater dining table and sip away on a glass from nearby McLaren Vale whilst you literally drink in the antique chandelier and original slate floors.
Our king and queen bedroom suites boast sophisticated decor, side tables, luxury high loft quilts and pillows, and super soft vintage wash linen. There is hanging and shelf space for your convenience. Drift away in utter indulgence amongst super soft pillows and cushions.
The large bathroom has a shower, toilet, and our absolute favourite- the bathtub to soak a hard day`s adventuring around the region right off. Enjoy the provisions of hair and body care amenities on us. **Please read note below `GUEST ACCESS`.
There is a washing machine and car parking available at the property for your convenience.
You’ll be delighted at every turn by the rustic elements and unique styling of this incredible cottage. Come and stay awhile and enjoy this masterpiece all to yourself, we would love to have you.
