Second Valley Holiday House Close to Beach
Clare's Cottage is a family friendly beachside cottage, situated in Second Valley with only a 400 metre flat walk to the beach.
It has 3 bedrooms and sleeps 8 people comfortably in 2 Queen Sized beds and 4 single bunk beds. It has a large decking area with table and chairs. There is a spacious garden with outdoor shower and a large separate games room for the kids including pool table, T.V. lounge, Table tennis table and other games.
Open plan living area and well equipped kitchen with microwave, under bench oven and hotplates, Nespresso coffee machine, and all the cooking appliances needed.
Lounge area has a lovely fireplace place , T.V. and a blu ray player. Dining area has 8 person table and chairs.
The house has a reverse cycle airconditioner in the lounge area. The bathroom has a shower and a full size bath with separate toilet and there is a separate laundry with a washing machine.
The house situated in a quiet street that is just a short walk to beach that takes you past the childrens playground to the Jetty Store for that litre of milk, coffee or newspaper, bait for the days fishing off the jetty. Or a short drive to Normanville or Yankalilla which has supermarkets, bakeries, cafes, and numerous shops.
Plenty of off street parking, with room to park your boat or caravan and pet friendly
Linen - BYO Linen. Pillows and Doonas provided.
Second Valley is an amazingly protected beach for swimming complete with great snorkeling, jetty fishing, steep coastal cliffs and bush walks ,old boat sheds and fascinating scenery and geological formations help make Second Valley unforgettable.
Located 91 kilometres south of Adelaide, Second Valley is divided into two parts - the old mill on the main road and, down the valley to the sea, a tiny coastal port reminiscent of a Cornish fishing village.
Second valley is ideal as a Kangaroo Island stopover only 15 mins drive from the ferry or 20 mins from Deep Creek Conservation Park with its spectacular scenery and bushwalks. A short drive to several stunning golf courses and plenty more to see and do.
The location of Clare's Cottage is fantastic - within an easy 100m walk there is a convenience store, playground, beach and historic jetty.
Pets are welcome, however the property is fenced but not secure.
