Pirathon Country Estate

Centrally located with friendly staff and great rooms. Delicious breakfast and spacious suites with comfortable amenities. Good WiFi and communal area with entertainment.

Stayed here for four nights in May. The five rooms are located around the four sides of one old cottage. Our room and bathroom were both very large and tastefully furnished although, our delightful and very helpful host Jonathon advised that, the new owners (Pirathon Wines) hoped to gradually refurbish the rooms to make them even better. Our bedroom was furnished with a king bed (very comfortable) that had two bedside tables with reading lamps either side of the bed, a long bench at the end of the bed, a single comfortable arm chair (another would have been useful), a plastic fold up table, a Sony Bluetooth player, a minbar, kettle, electric blankets and a flatscreen TV. There was also a small hanging cupboard with two bathrobes. The room had a reverse cycle air conditioner and a ceiling fan. The large bathroom had a good sized vanity, a walk-in shower with both rainwater and hand held shower heads (pressure OK) and a huge standalone bath that would have comfortably taken two people. Heating in the bathroom would be useful as would towel rails rather than hooks which don’t really allow the towels to dry properly. Both the room and bathroom were very clean on arrival and were given what I would call a light clean during our stay with the beds being made and a general tidy up although the floor was not vacuumed. WIFI was included and worked very well. There was also plenty of free parking. Breakfast was served in a separate building which the new owners intend to also turn into a tasting room for their nearby winery during Cellar Door hours. This was a lovely space with a fire burning during the mornings, afternoons and evenings. The included breakfast was a very good mix of cold and hot food with several different juices, cereals, breads with a choice of preserves, cheese and meats and a hot selection from a choice of ten different toppings on a muffin or croissant including egg and bacon. Coffee and tea was provided. Jonathon our host was excellent. Friendly, informative and exceptionally welcoming, including providing us with wine each evening whilst sitting in front of the fire. Lanzerac is only a couple of minutes drive from the centre of Tanunda or an easy flat 1.3 klm walk. It is also within easy reach of a multitude of wineries and restaurants. We will definitely stay again.

My wife and I had a wonderful weekend at the Barossa and one of the main reasons was our stay at Lanzerac. The rooms are exceptionally comfortable with a great eye for detail. Jonathan was great, really helpful and the food was excellent. I would highly recommend a stay at Lanzerac
