Trestrail Cottage – Clare Valley, South Australia
Trestrail Cottage is a family managed business. Husband and wife team, Vivian and Sue created the cottage from its inception in 1992. It was Sue’s idea to provide a small dwelling in the Clare Valley, South Australia for the wider family to stay on weekends in the future. The present day cottage and accommodation business is the outcome. With Sue being the mainstay of its everyday functions, cleaning, PR and bookwork her attention to detail in all facets, with an eye to first impressions, set a high standard of service.
After 20 years of servicing Trestrail Sue was getting ready to hand on the baton. One of our daughter-in-laws Lisa, began her apprenticeship side by side with Sue. Sadly in 2012 Sue passed away and Lisa assumed, as a natural transition, Sue’s role. Lisa is still Trestrail’s able and dedicated front line operator.
Vivian had longed to enhance Trestrail’s surrounds and as ‘retirement’ approached Vivan has given his full creative expression into building some of the unique features you will now find at Trestrail. The enclosed outdoor deck, sauna and outdoor shower make Trestrail a distinctive, yet intimate getaway. A place out of the ordinary to digitally detox and reconnect and discover. With new features complete Vivian felt a huge sense of personal achievement along with eager anticipation for future guests to experience the built and natural form.Thanks to our partners, you can find ties online to suit every preference and budget, from budget to top-of-the-range super stylish models.
