Welcome to The Cheese Factory – a one-of-a-kind stone retreat brimming with rustic charm and Provencal character, nestled on 14 scenic acres just minutes from Goolwa and the Murray Mouth. Step into a gourmet kitchen designed for feasts and family moments, complete with a Belling oven, gas cooktop, Nespresso machine, wine fridge, dishwasher, and generous prep space. The original cheese churner and sliding barn door are delightful reminders of the home’s storied past. The ten-seater timber dining table invites shared meals and laughter. The spectacular split-level living area is a true centrepiece, where whitewashed cathedral ceilings, exposed stone walls, and industrial steel beams meet plush leather seating. A gas fireplace and flat-screen TV offer a cosy gathering spot, while a tucked-away desk nook beneath the stairs provides a peaceful place to catch up on work. Bathed in natural light, a beautiful sunroom with wraparound windows offers uninterrupted views of the olive groves, native gardens, and gently rolling paddocks – the perfect spot for morning coffee or an afternoon read. Each bedroom has its own thoughtful touches and warm textures. On the ground floor, one king room includes ramp access to the exterior for ease and accessibility, while the charming second bedroom features three single beds ideal for younger guests. The upstairs loft is a peaceful, more private retreat with a king bed, walk-in robe, and an ensuite framed by timber ceilings and a feature stone wall. Step outside to a large stone deck where long lunches stretch into sunset dinners under the fairy lights. There’s more outdoor seating under the trees, a shaded patio for coffee or wine, and a swing hanging gently from an old gum tree. Kids can run wild on the lawns, chip a few golf balls on the tee, or venture to the separate barn-style rumpus room – a haven with a billiards table, comfy lounges, sunbeds, and a telescope for stargazing. The main bathroom is on the lower level.

Tucked away in peaceful seclusion, The Old Cheese Factory is just a ten-minute drive from Hindmarsh Island Bridge, offering easy access to Goolwa’s cafés, boutiques, and coastal charm. The river’s edge is just a two-minute drive north, perfect for kayaking or a quiet picnic. In under ten minutes, you can reach the Murray Mouth and Coorong National Park—ideal for boat launching, birdwatching, and soaking up the natural beauty of South Australia’s southern coastline.
