Crepes or pancakes was the breakfast choice...neat! With a car the just outside of town location (2.5 km to be exact) is a cinch, and there is a je ne'sais quois charme about this old collection of "crazy" (as in folie) antiques that pervade. But description said private bathroom, and it was only before arriving that we received an SMS saying bathroom is outside and 15 steps away from our detached room. (Actually more like 15 metres...) Country mornings here are very cold, and the toot and shower were unheated... so very disappointing, and terribly inconvenient for nocturnal visits. Double bed was spring mattress.

We had a fantastic time in our small cottage style accommodation set against the rural landscape of Murray Bridge. If you love to explore country style antique stores this B&B should be on the top of your list. Rob and Stef were fantastic hosts.

I've had the pleasure of staying at A La Folly B&B on a few occasions now and it feels remiss of me not to have previously posted a review. The property has seen a couple of past lives and continues on as a bed and breakfast with continuing development and a most amazing location, atmosphere and hospitality. Stef, Rob and Sacha (... and Chopper) make you feel both special and at home for the entire stay. There are other rooms, but we've always stayed in "the Retreat" (one bedroom cottage - which doesn't begin to describe it !). Nothing is left to chance - it feels like they have thought of everything. Staying here could be as private, secluded, romantic as you'd like - there are in room facilities if you prefer to look after yourself or amazing food options offered by the hosts. I thoroughly recommend staying at A La Folly.

Do yourself a favour and stay here. We absolutely fell in love with this wonderful hideaway of serenity peace and amor. Steph was a wonderful hostess welcoming us like old friends. The cottage was Devine with old world rustic charm and decorated nicely with timeless pieces, spacious with ensuite and a comfortable bed. Overly treated at complimentary breakfast of pancakes or crepes, made nicely to French standards , there were also a continental breakfast that we added also as it was hard to resist the French pastries and orange juice. The lovely ambience flowed outside to the courtyards and paths with added pieces of old school and times less pieces, a credit to Rob and his tradesman skills, when wandering hopefully you might spot Cookie the cat and Meet Chooper the loveable dog. Honestly we struggled and were sad to leave after 3 days of bliss, but definitely our return place to be if we ever get back, thank you, Steph, Rob, Sasha and furchilds

Such considerate and hospitable hosts Stef and Rob loved this break from visiting lovely friends. Loved also the smiley pancakes, stars on the ceiling as the lights went out, cooked breakfast, birdsong and water views. Not to forget the French/Aussie vibe. Treat yourself to a relaxing stay here x

I have stayed @ A La Folly a few times now. I have not stayed since Rob & Stef have upgraded the single room. It has french doors onto a patio, what with the extra rain there was a big lake. I have never seem that amount of water before, spectacular view. The room was stunning before, it's now even better. The bathroom upgrade is amazing too. I can see why these guys have 5 star reviews, they more than deserve it. The labour of love at A La Folly is incredible. Great value, incredible location, Stef & Rob are always so welcoming & accomodating. Stef & Rob, THANK YOU so much, it was lovely staying again.

Absolutely loved our stay. Very different to the usual hotel room. Beautiful breakfast and Steph couldn't do enough for us to make our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. Is a little way out of town but this makes it quiet with country views.
