Para River Cottage
Para River Cottage was an unexpected patch of paradise in beautiful Tanunda. I would have to say it is one the best Airbnb’s we have stayed in. 5 stars plus all the way! Thank you Rainer and family for creating this beautifully renovated home filled with authenticity and so much love and care. Your attention to detail is outstanding! There was quality everywhere..from top quality kitchen appliances, fantastic quality media options(that were easy to use), to impeccable linen, towels and soft furnishings. Vasse Virgin products generously supplied and even the things you may forget all there in the bathroom. Thank you for your great communication on all areas and your generous flexibility with check in and out times…was so appreciated. The gardens at Para cottage are a serene delight,so well loved and cared for, with so many parts to explore.. The generous breakfast and supplies for the days we were there, especially the bread( won’t give too much away ,) were all icing on the cake and

Woodlands - Vineyard setting
5 plus stars from my whole family. The home and vineyards are pristine. There was so much to do both inside and outside. We cannot speak highly enough of David or Cookie as my children now call him (feeling comfortable with him straight away). David went above and beyond the entire trip. We will definitely holiday again. Thank you so much for making our trip memorable. From the Morris Family xo

The Villas - Barossa. Peace. Beauty. Simplicity.
5 star AirBNB - great location with numerous walkable wineries and food options within a short drive, very peaceful, an excellent place to get away for a short break! Highly recommend!

The Good Life - Two Bedroom Garden Apartment
Great place to stay, very quiet and clean

The Gums Cottage by Tiny Away
The place looked just like the photos, and the inside was incredibly clean. We could use the gas barbecue, and when we needed help with it, the host was quick to assist us. We even got to meet his family, who were all lovely, especially the adorable kids. Our privacy was completely respected, and the peaceful, beautiful natural setting was perfect. There were quite a few flies due to the weather, but it wasn’t a big issue. If you're looking for a unique experience and a peaceful escape, I highly recommend this place!

Neagles Retreat Villas
I booked this retreat for my bridal party and me to get ready in and it was perfect! Then me and my husband stayed the night of my wedding and it was great. Lots of room. Nice views! Kangaroos literally come right up to the place it’s so cute. I’ll definitely be recommending this place to others if they need to stay in Clare.

2 Family House, Ocean Views, Games Shed
We enjoyed our stay! Daniel was a very helpful and responsive host. House was very spacious and had all the amenities that we needed, everything was very clean, would definitely stay here again if we were to visit Tiddy Widdy Beach. Highly recommended!

Hollyhock Cottage
Hollyhock Cottage was delightful and welcoming, we were two couples staying and were most comfortable with plenty of space. The cottage has been tastefully maintained. If visiting Burra again, would stay at Hollyhock again.
Your guide to Burra
All About Burra
The mining town of Burra is around 130 kilometres from Adelaide, between the lush vineyards of Clare Valley and the red dirt of the South Australian Outback. Burra was once one of the largest inland towns in Australia due to its thriving copper mine, and is the best-preserved 19th-century mining town in the country.
Today, Burra draws on its rich heritage to attract visitors from near and far, with 43 sites of importance to explore. You can delve into the town’s mining history at the Monster Mine Site, the largest mine site in Burra. Marvel at the enormity of the open cut mine and explore the many underground dugouts and long abandoned mine sites, as well as visiting the Powder Magazine — the oldest surviving mining building in Australia. A visit to the Burra Regional Art Gallery will also provide a fascinating insight into the town’s past and present through art.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Burra
The most pleasant time to visit is September to November and March to May, when the days are generally warm and sunny with a lower chance of rain, perfect for exploring Burra’s attractions. In May, the Burra Antiques and Collectables fair takes place, a much-loved local event with many treasures to be found as well as market stalls and a vintage car show. In November the Burra Country Music Festival takes over the town, attracting musicians from far and wide for a weekend of music and events. If you plan on visiting Burra in summer the town can get very hot, so remember to bring a hat and sunscreen. Whenever you decide to visit, you’ll find a good range of accommodations in Burra to suit all tastes and budgets.
Top things to do in Burra
The Monster Mine Site
The largest mine site in Burra is a huge open-air museum with ruins of old buildings and machinery from the mining period. Take in the spectacular views of the open cut mine and the glistening, blue lake below, as well as great views over the town. You can visit on foot for free, but with the Burra Heritage Passport, you can arrive by car for easier access, and the passport also lets you visit other historic sites in town.
Red Banks Conservation Park
Take the 15-minute drive out of Burra to the Red Banks Conservation Park to see the Red Cliffs of Baldina Creek. Arrive in the late afternoon and witness the amazing colours the sun creates on the striking red cliffs that give the park its name. There is also an abundance of wildlife to spot, and you can walk the five-kilometre Landscapes of Change Hike to learn about giant wombats that lived in South Australia 65,000 years ago.
Hampton Township
On the edge of Burra is Hampton Township, the original settlement for English people who came here during the mining boom. There are no complete buildings, and the township is in ruins, a stark glimpse into what the town once looked like. From here you will also gain sweeping views of Burra.
