A great half way stop between Adelaide and Melbourne, providing travelers with boutique accommodation options in both Bordertown and Robe in South Australia. Child and pet friendly. Dunalan is a family run farm which has been in the part of the Edwards family for five generations. In 1990 Jo and James converted a historic cottage, on the farm, to a Bed and Breakfast which offers a unique farm experience.

Our Bordertown cottage can comfortably sleep up to 12 people or still be cosy for 1-2. We have a fully equipped kitchen including a dishwasher and BBQ area. Our very reasonable rates include a continental breakfast with fresh farm eggs and a plate of afternoon tea on arrival. Take a wander through the farm or our Heritage listed scrub and experience the peace and tranquility of the Australian bush.

What a sweet cottage, loved our mini break. It's close to the highway but pretty peaceful. Some food scraps gets you fresh eggs for breakfast and the night sky is magnificent. I hope we get to drop in again.

I stayed here with my two little girls (2 and 4) on the way back from Adelaide - and it was gorgeous. It's just like going to stay at your grandma's house out in the country or something - a gorgeous old-style house which looks to have been built in the 1900s, but with all the mod cons and updates that are needed.
The house was lovely and warm for us (it was a cold and windy day) when we arrived, and we loved being able to put on the log fire, wash and dry out clothes in the laundry, and it was a godsend having a box of toys for the girls to play with that wasn't their own!

Very homely, had everything we needed. Comfortable. Great value. Loved it. Our 2 yo loved the dogs and tractors. It had a highchair for the baby. Even a baby spoon!

This lovely cottage was just gorgeous, and I absolutely loved staying there. Its quiet and on a working farm. The owners were very accomodating and super friendly. Just really enjoyed my time there.

Fabulous, Wonderful .. Relaxing time when it was so needed to be "out of town". Long time since being there..I think it was in it's infancy when we first stayed? Memories are still spoken of with huge fondness. I now live in Boston and reflect fondly of the "wide open spaces"...

Cosy cottage with super friendly owners - a brilliant farm getaway to shake off the city. Can't recommend it enough.

We had a fantastic time at Dunalan Cottage. It was so peaceful and a great spot to stop on the way to Melbourne. Our dogs loved the space and smells! it was great that they are allowed inside the cottage. The hosts are lovely and welcoming. We were able to freely use the grounds and we were provided with delicious home made goods and fresh breakfast items. Our son enjoyed feeding the chickens and meeting the friendly farm dogs and cat. The surrounding area provided lots of space for walking and great photo opportunities. We would have loved to have stayed longer and will do next time. Highly recommended
