"A La Folly" is the perfect place for a relaxing and romantic weekend or even for a quiet stop over. At only 2,5 km from the town centre. There’s nothing like a restorative weekend in nature to refresh and reset. Surrender to mother nature’s nurturing embrace as you wake up to the sound of birds. Our B&B is a retired dairy farm which housed the first female blacksmith in Australia and a couple of artists who left scattered in the gardens some of their art pieces. While we made sure to provide the modern comfort during the renovations we took care in keeping the rooms as authentic as possible. A La Folly is a great place to relax with your favorite person, suitable for one couple. Children are not allowed as this is intended a cozy getaway for couples, sorry. On the other hand well behaved pets are welcome to stay in your room with you. Being in the country side we have an extensive wild life, we've spotted 26 different bird species and still counting, we have also cute little bunnies hopping in the garden, as well as skink lizards, shingleback lizards and even bearded dragons and barking geckos. This room has an outside bathroom. Outside smoking areas available.

We are Rob and Stef originally from Western Australia, well at least Rob was born and raised in Busselton WA, as for me I am from Paris France and have been living in this wonderful country since 2002. We have been involved in hospitality and always wanted to create a special place ourselves as a bed and breakfast, but couldn't find the ideal spot, to our criteria anyway, in WA. So we sold everything, bought a caravan and started to tour around Australia chasing the dreamed of land. Some people find it strange but it's in Murray Bridge that our travel took us where we found a wonderful collection of stone buildings that look down to the Murray river and we fell in love with the property which is now our home. It was built in the mid 1870's, It used to be an old dairy farm then belonged to "Mary the blacksmith" she was the very first female blacksmith in Australia. Then a couple of artists, Elisabeth left some of her creations around the property. Every single previous owner leaving their footprint behind them, so here we are adding our little touch. We are ready and looking forward to cook for our guests, our style is "cuisine du monde " and some breakfast are included in the accommodation's fee others at extra cost, to be discussed upon arrival.

Our property looks down to the Murray river which is only about 700 meters away. You'll find minutes away: paddle boat cruises, golf course, bowling alley, museums, Monarto Safari Park, Tailem bend racing track and Pioneer Village, art gallery, wine cellar.
