First timers to McLaren Vale
Ponderosa is a beautiful house with gorgeous views - such an enjoyable place to stay. The location is excellent for exploring McLaren Vale. The hosts have thought of everything. We wished we had planned to stay longer to relax and admire the view.

What a home!!
Ponderosa is soooo well set up! Modern, clean lovely rooms with plenty of space for a large group. We love cooking and the kitchen was very well equipped and great to have a few herbs and spices available. Loved the cinema room and watching the sunrise from the outside area was a true delight.

Amazing weekend away
We had an amazing weekend away. Ponderosa exceeded our expectations. Everything about this property is spot on and was perfect for our stay. The theatre room was a highlight and spot on for viewing the Olympics. Being winter we made use of the fires. The beds were super comfy and the kitchen had everything we needed. Thank you so much Michelle for making our stay a memorable one.
