(%08-8323 8994; www �redpoles�com �au;  190
McMurtrieRd; dwithout/withbathroom$115/125;
aW) Nooked away in a bushy enclave, ec-
centric Red Poles is a great place to stay (and
eat!). Aim for the rustic en-suite room − it’s
bigger than its two counterparts. Order up a
saltbush lamb salad (mains $27 to $33, serv-
ing noon to 3pm Wednesday to Friday, from
9.30am Saturday and Sunday), and check
out some local artwork while you wait. Live
music Sunday afternoons.

St; unpowered/powered/en-suitesites $29/34/44,
cabins$115-135;as) A short walk from town,
this park by an artificial lake (any water this
summer?) is as affordable as McLaren Vale
accommodation gets. There’s a camp kitch-


en, pool, spa, tennis court and trashy book
exchange. Good winter rates. The Shiraz
Trail runs right past.

apt from $120/145/150/250;aiWs) A diges-
tive walk from main-street restaurants, this
cheery motel has been around since the ’80s
but is still in good shape. There are solid
doubles, new studio apartments and family
suites, plus a pool fringed by scruffy-looking
palms.

Vale ̈Inn ̈ MODERNAUSTRALIAN$$
(%08-8323 8769; www �mvbeer�com;  190  Mc-
MurtrieRd; mains$16-28;h10am-6pmMon, Thu &
Sun, 10am-9pmFri &Sat) This old vine-covered
inn has been reborn as a beery bar/bistro.
McLaren Vale Beer Co is based here: don’t
leave without trying its much-awarded Vale
Ale, or the meaty Vale Dark or smooth Vale
IPA. Food-wise it’s zingy pizzas (try the duck,
Spanish onion and brie), curries, steaks and
seafood.
