Memory Lane

Memory Lane is a three-bedroom holiday house at 26 John Street, Tanunda, in the heart of the Barossa Valley, with a private enclosed garden and back deck. The owners list the property as pet friendly, so it suits a family or small group who want a whole house within walking distance of Tanunda's main street with the dog welcome in the yard.

The dog setup

Pets are welcome, and the enclosed garden and back decking give a dog somewhere secure to settle outside. The fine print is not published in the listings, so confirm the details that matter with the management company, Getaways SA, when you book: how many dogs, sizes, any fee, and whether indoor access is allowed. Treat nothing as settled until the manager confirms it, and bring your own dog bedding and bowls as a baseline.

The vibe

It is a self-contained whole house rather than a cottage in a complex, which means space, privacy and no shared corridors with other guests. John Street sits close to Tanunda's Murray Street strip, so cafes, bakeries and the town's cellar doors are an easy walk while the dog has the garden.

Getting there and parking

Tanunda is on the Barossa Valley Highway via Nuriootpa or Lyndoch, about an hour from Adelaide. Off-street parking comes with the house, and the main street is walkable from the front door.

While you're out there

Turkey Flat Vineyards on the edge of town is known for welcoming leashed dogs at the cellar door, and the sealed Barossa Trail out of Tanunda handles the morning on-lead walk. The Nuriootpa Fenced Dog Park covers the off-lead run, Wohlers Cafe is the local coffee stop, and BIG4 Barossa Tourist Park is the fallback park-style base with fenced pet cabins.
