About This Experience
Step into a piece of Adelaide Hills history – a lovingly restored 1890s barn set on 6 acres of farmland, nestled between Littlehampton and Nairne. Perfectly positioned in a cul-de-sac of similar properties, it is the ideal base for a relaxing Hills holiday. Named after local legend Amos Howard who popularised clover as a nitrogen rich soil enhancer. The Barn was used by Amos to thresh clover seeds, sales of which became a booming business in the early 1900s. Wake to the sound of birdsong and enjoy a lazy morning over a delicious breakfast of fresh produce – breakfast provisions are included for your first day, featuring locally sourced ingredients to get your stay off to a perfect start. The well-equipped, gourmet’s kitchen showcases rustic old tiles imported from a Portuguese monastery and is the perfect spot for cooking up a storm. The Barn contains everything you need to cater for meals at home, from a beautiful freestanding Smeg cooker to your own Breville coffee maker, ensuring barista-quality coffee on tap! Or if you’d rather someone else cater, you are wonderfully situated to enjoy the many local coffee shops and restaurants nearby. We can recommend a few! Where you’ll stay: The Barn is an ideal couple’s retreat, featuring a large master bedroom, with queen bed and dressing room. A cosy second bedroom with twin single beds makes it perfect for families and friends too. For your comfort each room has its own remote-control air-conditioning unit. A modern bathroom includes a rain shower and separate toilet. The Barn’s high ceilings and exposed wooden beams ensure a light filled sanctuary. Enjoy meals and games around the 6-seater circular dining table. Relax and read a book or just soak up the view from one of the comfortable seating areas. The triple-glazed windows frame a stunning view in every direction. You may even spot bunnies, magpies and sulphur-crested cockatoos amongst the wildlife. When the weather permits, enjoy a picnic under the pine tree or take the blanket and picnic basket and set up in the paddock! In winter, keep yourself cosy with a wood fire or toast marshmallows around the outdoor fire-pit. Meet our animals or bring your horse: • Our horse, Sugar, loves her food. You are welcome to join us at feed time. Just ask to be involved. You may even like to enjoy a cheeky wine while watching her dine. • Basil, Olive & Sage, our black nosed Valais sheep are super friendly, cuddly and love attention. If you’d like to feed or pat them, we’d be happy to accommodate you. Just ask when booking. • BYO horse – This listing includes the use of a private paddock with water trough during your stay. You are also welcome to use the arena during your stay, just make sure you clean up afterwards. Other things to note: • We can book our mobile massage therapist, Lea, to come during your stay & knead away the tension while you relax in The Barn. Please let us know if you’re interested at time of booking.

About the host
We moved to Clover Park in late 2024 to pursue the dream of living in the stunning Adelaide Hills & owning our first horse. We saw the potential of the property & have spent the last couple of years lovingly creating The Barn. Making beautiful spaces to create lasting memories is my joy!
