Our First Event News

Owners Stefan and Leanne Ahrens drew inspiration from the unique Barossa region, with the original Homestead, dating back to 1856 and built by Stephen King and his pool of craftsmen, sitting pride of place. Thanks to a recent renovation, Kingsford the Barossa offers 16 rooms and suites to choose from, including the Homestead Suites, the View Suites, Meg’s 3-Bedroom Cottage, and the Stonemason’s Cottage. You can also enjoy the Orleana Restaurant, where you can explore new flavours and dishes. The Wine Tunnel and Vaults will also be a major attraction thanks to the wine collection, which includes the Barossa Shiraz. When you want some nightlife, you can head over to the 1856 Lodge Bar for a drink or bowl a few frames at the Kegelbahn, a German indoor bowling alley. If you want to relax in the pool, you can also enjoy the Peppertree Pool Bar. A refreshing dip in the saltwater pool might also be in order or you might enjoy the Kingsford Bush Bath—an alfresco bathing experience. “As a fifth generation Barossan, we know what we have here is unique. Kingsford The Barossa has allowed us to create a retreat that allows us to share this offering with those closest to us, along with business contacts and much more broadly, visitors to South Australia,” said owner Stefan Ahrens. “We’ve taken the heart of the Barossa and embodied that at Kingsford. You come to Kingsford to share all of the Barossa experiences in one place, where you have privacy and exclusivity whilst savouring the best collections of food and wine we can offer.”
