Rustic Elegance at The Barn: Guest Rated 9.8 with Ocean Views | House in Penrice, Australia

1 Bedroom House with Parking, Fireplace and Pool
The Barn @pondicherri_village is a single room building constructed with thick stone walls and exposed internal timber beams. The building is aged over 100 years originally containing a tiny window on the south side and one door with a dirt floor. Outside the Barn, you will spot a remnant stone wall standing proud in the paddock - part of another barn!
Today, the Barn is furnished with a very comfortable super-sized king bed complete with crisp white sheets and natural fibre quality bed linens. In winter, you will keep very toasty with the individual dual zoned electric blankets. The bed is so spacious, it is also perfect for travelling family members or good friends to share!
For your entertainment, there is a smart TV with free access to Netflix, Stan, and Google Chromecast and other apps such as UTube to watch movies, videos, news - any program - while you cozy up in bed and/or access the NBN fixed wireless network for all your modern communication needs. Or, if you are on a work/ flexcation break, you can set yourself up on the drop leaf table or maybe, just stay in bed! And for ambient comfort, a reverse cycle air conditioner keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter.
An eclectic separate dressing area showcases a large gilded mirror, a vintage secretaire containing a hairdryer, an umbrella alongside hanging racks complete with two bathrobes for your use. A fold-out ironing board with iron is provided. There you will also find a basket to take along to the Barossa Farmers Market open every Saturday morning, and only a 5-minute drive away. We also supply some ‘almost’ vintage games and game boards for your enjoyment.
A small kitchenette contains a kettle, microwave, toaster, and fridge to ensure you have everything you need for a comfortable stay. If you wish to cook, you have access to the Pug Lounge - the undercover outdoor space containing comfy lounges with a Weber BBQ and cooking space. All other additional cooking equipment is portable and plug in.
There is no running water in the Barn, but we do provide a handmade 2-litre capacity ceramic water purifier system that removes nearly all contaminants including fluoride. The water purifier can be replenished with town potable water from the Wash House with the stainless steel jug that is provided in the Barn.
The north-facing deck is totally private and is a wonderful sunny spot to start your day. You may even see a hot air balloon on the distant horizon - sometimes above! Later, you can sip your glass of Barossa wine with the occasional spotting of kangaroos in the paddocks. On a clear night, the night skies and the Milky Way are stunning! Download a stargazing app and find the different constellations.
Buy some local yummy delicacies and enjoy! It relaxing, peaceful, and rejuvenating - especially for city folk - or so we are told!
The lockable private shower room and separate toilet are a short walk from The Barn and are located in the Wash House that is semi-attached to the (circa 1845) historic original settlers building - The Pug House built of mud/straw and stone. Take a step back in time and ‘walk the walk’ of the original Barossa settlers - but these wash facilities are modern-day!
In the warmer months, you will have access to a 12 x 3.5 metre swimming pool. It is a shared space enjoyed by us but mostly you will find you can enjoy the pool by yourself.
It is what is on the inside that counts! We live on the property too and we are gradually upgrading the grounds but you will be very comfortable and importantly - very private.
However, if you are older or maybe have the need for suburban indoor comforts and/or a frequent night toilet user - the Barn might not be for you! The Barn is a mix of old and new experiences. It shares the nuances of glamping but it’s neither a hotel room experience, a house nor an apartment! You can even leave the dunny door open with views! And at night, your gifts are the sparkling diamonds in the night sky! If you think you can enjoy this type of experience, we warmly welcome you to book with us at Pondicherri Village and The Barn.
