WINNER 2018, 2016 Luxury Affordable Motel of the Year - Australia, awarded by International Luxury Travel Guide, the Picturesque Clare Valley Motel is a family run business that is centrally located in the Clare Valley, one of Australia's premiere boutique wine regions, situated on 16 peaceful, tree-studded acres.
Spotless, caring staff, comfortable, very well appointed and a quiet location well above the main road - what's not to love? Spent 3 night's in total and we can't wait to come back! Pool was amazing and pool towels are supplied upon request, everything is so close by and all the basics are supplied.
Yes, we are! The Clare Valley Motel was established around 25 years ago and before the trees matured, was like a beacon on the hill. We are located just 1.5 kilometres, or a leisurely 15 minute stroll, to the centre of Clare. Our location means that although we are very close to all the action, we are just far enough away for you to experience the peace and quiet of our country lifestyle.
Perfect on a hot summers' day - cool off in our sparkling saltwater pool with beautiful views over the Clare Valley or wiggle your toes in our sandy beach under a Bali hut while you cook a BBQ and enjoy a glass of Clare Valley wine. Clare Valley Motel is not just a building, it is an experience, yourselves, the staff and the surroundings all add to a most enjoyable time.
Nestled on 16 peaceful acres, away from the traffic but only 2 minutes to the heart of town. 4 Tesla Supercharge bays are situated at the Motel and all Tesla drivers are welcome to call in to recharge your battery. While you're here recharge your own batteries in our comfortable guest lounge with a Freshly Ground Coffee or cool drink, catch up on the days news or sports with our 42 inch Plasma TV or just relax and watch the world go by.

Good facilities with pool etc. rooms are ok and heard some are recently renovated. The bathroom did look a bit dirty though and not very pleasant to shower in (brown grout and just a bit old/out dated). Not bad for cheap price, but wouldn’t go out of my way to stay here.

The room looked like it had not been vacuumed, the bathroom seemed like it had not been cleaned in some time; the 1 face washer that was provided was dirty with makeup residue from the previous person; the outside chairs, table and ground had sauce spilt over them making it a non desirable space to use. Considering the cost we will not be back.

Perfectly fine motel, but over sold on Airbnb. Very plain motel decor, dated bathroom, paper thin walls

I'm staying here while touring for 3 days.
It's quiet and clean and comfortable.
On a hill so you get a view.
There is a pool for the warmer weather.
The staff are friendly and helpful.
Spacious room.
I definitely recommend staying here while you're touring the Clare Valley and the surrounds.

Excellent. Lovely helpful staff, and very generous breakfast box. Our bed was very comfortable. Room attractively presented. The bathroom needs updating, but overall a very good stay, highly recommended! 🙂

We stayed here on 15/10/21. Checked in early with no problems and very friendly staff. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. . Shower was so good and had heaps of pressure and plenty of hot water. In summary the accomodation was perfect and very welcoming. We will certainly be back and spend more time here on our next visit

We had a pleasant stay overall. We arrived late afternoon and was quite chilly outside, so was much appreciated to find the heater was switched on to warm our room ready for our check in.
The reception & grounds staff are lovely, fresh milk is provided daily which is refreshing unlike many other motels.
The rooms were standard clean however were quite dated and shabby (website photos not a clear indication). The water pressure not so great, hot cold shots constantly.
Wash & Dry facility, Tesla car charge stations on premises.
The grounds also have Alpacas which the kids loved feeding daily
