Carol invites you to enjoy a relaxed stay at the Spalding "Country bakehouse Accommodation". The century old bakehouse residence has been tastefully renovated, blending antiques and modern furnishings for style & comfort. Country bakehouse is a unique historic Baker's Residence, full of history & charm. Spalding is central to the wine region of Clare, the historic Copper mining town of Burra, the Jamestown forest & Crystal Brook - well known for its Bakery. Country bakehouse Accommodation provides a perfect venue for day trips to towns in the lower Flinders Ranges and a central base for walkers and bike riding enthusiasts on the Mawson and Heysen trails which meet at Spalding. Uniquely situated between 4 rivers & the Bundaleer Reservoir, your minimum 2 night stay includes a "catch & release" free Permit for Trout fishing on the Broughton River. Continental Breakfast provisions are included in the tariff and a well- equipped, country kitchen and gas BBQ are provided for your convenience. Couples, families, walking groups and bike riders are welcome. The Country bakehouse is an ideal place for romantic couples to share a weekend, families to stay for short breaks & holidays or trail walkers to spend a comfortable night after a brisk walk on the Heysen & Mawson Trails. We provide a "home away from home" with lots of interesting reading materials, family board games, DVD's and a large digital screen with satellite TV. Attached to the residence, in the old bakehouse is an extra teen retreat room. This room is ideal for extra family members with a queen and two single beds provided. Why not take a weekend break, go fishing or photograph the scenic Broughton River, visit wineries or coffee shops in the Clare Valley or explore dugouts and underground tunnels at the historic mining town of Burra. Travel North through Jamestown to visit the Railway Museum at Peterborough or South to the Historic town of Mintaro to lose yourself in the Maze or make a visit to Martindale Hall. Because we are central to so many Historic towns we are able to provide a comfortable retreat at the end of a day exploring the Mid North of SA. Fishing & Small Town Experience The Country bakehouse is situated in the small town of Spalding,178km north of Adelaide and on the fringe of the Clare Valley.

You may not catch a trout or a cod but you could enjoy a day out along the river exploring the pools & why not take a picnic on a Spring day.
