Something Less Ordinary.
Welcome to Bed In A Shed.
We offer unique Clare Valley Accommodation among the vines. Retreat amongst a working Riesling vineyard in the Watervale region of the stunning Clare Valley.
You’ll find us an easy 90 minute drive from Adelaide, South Australia. Our former artists’ residence and vineyard shed converted by hand to boutique accommodation is uniquely, unapologetically Clare. Come and see, taste and feel its stories and ethos of character, creativity and sustainability.
A stay at our vineyard accommodation in the heart of the Clare Valley is comfortable, with a touch of luxury and will provide vast views over the Watervale Riesling vines as far as the eye can see. Enjoy self check-in, local breakfast provisions for your first morning, and the serenity of nature and farm animals.
Two Distinct Styles
Bed In A Shed
The bespoke creation of former resident artist Andrew Quixley, our Bed In A Shed units feature warm, inviting and inspiring design with extensive use of interesting, recycled materials, creating a unique Clare Valley accommodation option.
Bed In A Shed is made up of two units – Bed In A Shed One, a King Studio with additional single bed, and Bed In A Shed Too, and a three-bedroom villa. Combine the two for a wonderful and exclusive stay for your family or group.
The Artist's Homestead
Situated in the former artist’s residence, the original historic homestead features one of a kind rustic artisan timber designed cabinetry, decoration and artwork by Andrew Quixley, the creator of Bed in a Shed.
A more classical choice for your Clare Valley accommodation, the Homestead comprises of two units, the two bedroom main Homestead and the Homestead Studio. For larger groups or families, book the two together for exclusivity and privacy.
A unique, boutique getaway. So quiet and private with a lovely country, northern outlook. Everything you could ask for, especially if you intend to eat out for lunch and dinner. Yummy continental brekky supplied too.
The ability to have a hot breakfast at the Watervale general store was great, and highly recommended as their food was tasty, fresh & locally sourced. Our stay was very peaceful and the views were magnificent. The assistance with booking activities and recommended places to eat was very helpful. Overall a fantastic experience.
if it was possible to give 10 instead of 5 stars I would. We have been travelling for 16 days now and this has been the absolute highlight. It is incredibly clean, spotless in fact but has soo much atmosphere, is relaxing and very welcoming. Andrew is a very special host, with wonderful humour and her enriched our visit to the Clare Valley. All our needs were covered for with clear directions, welcome texts, stunning breakfast of local products, many personal thoughts and items that no other B&B never provided. We will certainly be back and will definitely recommend Bed in a Shed to all our friends. An outstanding experience.
