Come and live like Kingsford

FOLLOWING a threeyear, multi-million-dollar redevelopment by owners Stefan and Leanne Ahrens, the updated 16-suite Kingsford The Barossa has reopened to the public.

Catering to a maximum of 32 guests, the private retreat located near the Barossa Valley now features a Kegel Bahn bowling alley, the Peppertree Pool & Bar, and a cellar room with a long wine-tasting table.

Also new is the Orleana Restaurant and Lodge Bar serving a range of tasty dishes inspired by local Barossa ingredients and matched to the local wines.

The owners believe the property will appeal to both local and interstate visitors for a variety of reasons, from leisure travellers wanting something a little bit more luxurious, to special events like weddings and functions.

“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,” owner Stefan Ahrens said.

Commenting on the reopening, South Australian Tourism Commission Chief Executive Rodney Harrex said the property represented another great addition to the state’s thriving accommodation sector.

“The opening of Kingsford The Barossa is superbly timed to leverage this opportunity - at a time when South Australia is punching above its weight and accommodation in our regions is so highly sought after,” he said.
