Escape One - Luxury romantic vineyard escape

Escape One is one of two luxury villas at Monapilla Escape, a place to truly unwind and enjoy the simpler & finer things in life. Identical villas spaced well apart, Escape One is nestled among vines & towering gums, with breathtaking sunset views to the coast, spacious living area & balcony, open fire, outdoor bath and fire pit, E-bikes & more, there’s so much to see and do…or do nothing at all. A truly unique escape in the heart of McLaren Vale’s vibrant food and wine scene.

Monapilla Escape has two luxury villas set on 50 acres, with towering gums, grazing sheep and chickens for fresh eggs. Both homes are secluded and private, with identical floor plans and spectacular views to the coast. The Master bedroom has an ensuite with free standing bath, and the second bedroom has it’s own bathroom. The second bedroom can be set up as two king singles or a king size bed, ideal for young children or a second couple if travelling together. Fully equipped kitchens, spacious living areas with genuine open fires, huge private balconies with outdoor dining and BBQ. Each villa has its own private fire-tub and camp-fire to help truly unwind, 2 complimentary E-bikes to explore the region, and private access to the organic produce/flower gardens and Bocce Court with stunning sunset views, a great place to sample the wine and cheese you’ve collected that day. Collect farm fresh eggs for breakfast, then set off on the two E-bikes to explore the many wine and food options nearby, and then hit repeat… a truly unique place to unwind and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.

Guests have access to the whole house, as well as access to the garden areas, Bocce Court, and helipad. Guests have complimentary use of two E-bikes at each house.

Your hosts live nearby on a neighbouring property, so help is never far away. Guests can get in touch at any time if they need assistance. Occasionally we may need to do some farm work on the property, however we do our best not to disturb guests.

At Monapilla Escape, you’re just minutes away from world-class cellar doors and restaurants. Bec Hardy for a long lunch, Shadow Creek for wine tasting and platters and great pizzas. Salopian Inn for the best dinner in town. Willunga Farmers Market for fresh produce, Goodison’s Brewery for a cold beer, Sampson Tall for a character filled wine tasting in an old church. So many more to explore and enjoy. Take our complimentary E-bikes and make a day of it.

Complimentary E-bikes make getting around a breeze, or call an Uber. There are also private drivers available.

Please note the second bedroom does not have ducted air-conditioning, however it has excellent ventilation for the country fresh air, and a ceiling fan.
