Welcome to a one-of-a-kind cottage retreat nestled high among the trees in Crafers West. Its treehouse-style architecture and rustic log cabin exterior create a serene escape where time slows and the outside world fades away. Step inside to discover an inviting living area with high ceilings, warm timber floors, and soft leather lounges gathered around a wood-burning fireplace — a perfect place to unwind after a day exploring the Hills. Splashes of bright yellow bring warmth and creativity to the open-plan space, while large windows draw in natural light and leafy views. With split-system air conditioning and a wood-burning fireplace in the living area, this haven ensures year-round comfort. The fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances, a gas stove, an espresso machine, and all the essentials for home-cooked meals. The adjoining dining area features handcrafted timber furniture, leading directly onto a generous outdoor deck — the true heart of this hillside hideaway. Out here, you can dine alfresco beneath the trees, fire up the BBQ for a relaxed meal, or sip wine in the hanging egg chairs as the light shifts through the forest canopy. Surrounded by native plants and birdsong, it’s an idyllic space to pause and reconnect. The cosy queen bedroom offers a restful retreat with soft lighting and greenery at every window. The bathroom includes both a bathtub and a shower, complemented by a separate powder room and private laundry with a washer for convenience. Please note: one upstairs room and the entire downstairs area are locked and not accessible to guests. Access to the property is via a steep walkway with steps and uneven outdoor paths. There is no step-free access, and it is not suitable for guests with mobility issues, balance concerns, or health limitations. The cottage sits on a narrow road, which may not accommodate large or multiple vehicles at the same time. However, there is parking available in the driveway for up to two standard-sized cars.

Set in the leafy heights of Crafers West, this tranquil retreat places you moments from some of the Adelaide Hills’ most loved destinations. Within a short drive, you can explore Mount Lofty Summit for sweeping views of Adelaide, wander the trails of Cleland Conservation Park, or discover the historic charm of Stirling and Aldgate. Nearby towns, including Stirling and Crafers, are celebrated for their welcoming cafés, gastropubs, and fine dining spots. Favourites include The Stirling Hotel for modern Australian fare, The Crafers Hotel for hearty country dining, and Red Cacao Chocolatier for artisan sweets and hot chocolate indulgence. Surrounded by forest yet only 23 minutes from the city, this hillside location balances peaceful seclusion with easy access to the best of the Adelaide Hills.
