Orchard Garden

Orchard Garden is a one-bedroom private guest house at 7 Corn Street in Old Reynella, about 20 to 25 minutes south of Adelaide's centre and airport. The reason to book it with a dog is the format: you get an entire small, secure guest house to yourselves, and dogs of any size are welcome by arrangement.

The dog setup

Pets are allowed on prior request, with the guest house layout best suited to one or two well-settled dogs, and cats considered by request. Some listings show no additional pet fee while others suggest fees may apply, so get the exact cost confirmed with the owner before you lock in the booking.

The rental itself is private and secure, but the property runs as a quiet, adult-exclusive guest house with manicured gardens, so keep your dog leashed in any shared areas and match their temperament to the peaceful setting. Quiet hours apply overnight.

Worth knowing

Inside you get a queen double bed, a private bathroom and a fully equipped kitchen, with a garden of tropical palms giving the property its name. Secure on-site parking and private check-in make arrivals easy, and guests consistently call out the privacy, comfort and attention to detail.

Getting there

The guest house is on Corn Street in historic Old Reynella, with the Southern Expressway connecting you north to Adelaide or south toward the coast. Local amenities including the Old Reynella Hotel, restaurants and shops are a five-minute walk, and walking and bike tracks start close by.

Make a day of it

The property sits at the northern gateway to McLaren Vale, so cellar doors and coastal beaches are both short drives. For dog-specific stops, the Woodcroft Fenced Dog Park is a short drive away, with Modish and Grazing in the Valley for coffee nearby.

If you want a second base option on the coast side, the Port Noarlunga Motel also accommodates pets.
