Monapilla Escape

Experiences

Days that go exactly as slow as you like.

The experience

Wake slowly. Ride the vale. Soak under the stars. Then do it all again tomorrow.

Days here go exactly as slow as you like: fresh eggs and strong coffee, complimentary e-bikes through McLaren Vale, long lunches at the cellar doors, and the fire-tub waiting when you get back.

Your guide

The Guest Experiences Booklet

From private chefs and paddock-to-plate dining to e-bike wine trails, the fire-tub under the stars, and even a helicopter from your own helipad — our booklet gathers every Monapilla Escape experience, with insider tips and exclusive guest offers at our favourite local cellar doors.

Things to do

Ways to spend your days

The fire-tub, under the stars

Fire it up as the light drops and soak while the sky fills in. Nothing to hear but the farm.

Cellar doors, at your pace

Some of the country's best wineries, minutes away. Go for a long lunch, or ask us for the quiet ones.

Slow mornings on the farm

Walk the paddocks, meet the animals, and let breakfast take as long as it likes.

The coast, all but empty

The Fleurieu coastline is close and, on a weekday, practically your own.

The bocce garden club

A slow game on the lawn as the afternoon turns golden. Competitive optional.

E-bike ride-alongs

Complimentary e-bikes to roll through the vale, cellar door to cellar door, at your own pace.

The resident hens

Free-range eggs collected from the coop, and a flock happy to say good morning.

The indoor bathtub

For the cooler evenings: a deep soak inside, with the golden hour pouring in.

The villa & its outlook

Two horizons from the deck, coast on one side and vineyard on the other, with the farm all around.
