Noarlunga is a delightful cottage set in a thick patch of remnant bushland, that was clean and very comfortable to stay in. Got great nights sleep, with lovely renovated ensuite bathrooms, toasty fireplace, and well-stocked kitchen with utensils and crockery. Plenty of birds in the garden, with visiting Swamp Wallabies, and we even had a Koala pop by. Close to a beach for bird watching, and convenient to explore the nearby and amazing Wilson's Prom National Park. Good store and petrol in nearby Yanakie. Helpful, responsive and friendly hosts.

Yanakie escape

Easy access to the Prom and other surrounds. A proper escape with enough of the necessities (but not too many) which is perfect for those needing a break from the hustle and bustle of life as we know it.

Very peaceful off-grid house

Beautiful off-grid house, close to Wilson's Prom as well as it's own little slice of nature. Hosts are doing a great job to regenerate and preserve the surrounding bush land and were very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. Newly renovated bathrooms were beautiful. We had a lovely stay. Thank you!

Beautiful and serene getaway

The property is lovely, with beautiful stained glass windows in some of the bedrooms. The bathrooms have been really nicely renovated. Louisa was great to communicate and gave some really great info about the area, which we went to discover, which was really fun as we saw a wallaby and a lot of wombats in the evening! Louisa clearly cares and puts a lot of dedication in her property and it makes for a wonderful getaway. The proximity to the Prom was great!

A PROMising Property!

Fantastic experience. Noarlunga is well-kept, easily spacious enough for 4 adults and in a great area reasonably close to the Prom. Louisa was incredibly communicative, sending us plenty of helpful advice about the property and the area. Absolutely recommend.

Awesome prom 80th birthday escape

Accurately listed property, ideally located to get in and off prom park day trips. Location super tranquil, private bedrooms with bathrooms great. Kitchen stocked with everything you need cooking / food prep wise you need for a simple, no fuss get away. Back veranda proved the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a refreshing beverage in the afternoon sun amongst the bush. Would recommend- and will be back.

Absolutely wonderful!

This property is exactly as described. We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 nights here. Morning coffee on the front porch, cocktails on the back listening to birdsong, and a hike at Wilson’s prom in between. Very clean and nicely appointed. We would def. stay here again. Louisa was a pleasure to communicate with.

Truly private

Let's face it, many places that advertise as being private are not truly private. This one is. It was great to experience the sounds and sights of nature without the constant buzzing of the city. The house had everything we needed and despite it being off the grid we had no problems with power or hot water

Quiet life

This was a great tools down for our whole family. It was wild weather while we were here so walking on the beach in the wind and getting muddy on the tidal flat was a great way to spend the day, then we curled up in front of the fire place. Look out, the hot water doesn't quite keep up on cloudy days but otherwise no problems. Enjoyed a book on the back verandah watching the spinebills in the grevillea and hakeas.

A magical place to stay.

Comfortable, well-appointed, charming. Great communications with owner. If you’re looking for a great place to get away from it all, but with all the creature comforts, this is it. This house is located in a quiet bushland pocket about 10 minutes from Yanakie, providing easy access to the Wilson’s Prom National Park. The owner made it very clear that this off-grid home has no TV or microwave. The battery/solar power and gas were abundant for our needs, and there’s a great book and game library. Honestly, we 4 friends laughed and had so much fun, played games and loved sitting by the fire.The stained and painted glass panel were delightful, and complement the newly renovated and stylish bedrooms, bathrooms and living areas. There are two large bedroom each with ensuite, a separate bathroom area, third bedroom with bunks, two living areas, and front and rear decks (the latter with bbq).Absolutely recommend this place!

Peaceful location

The description was just as it was, right off the beaten track in a remote location. The house had plenty of space and we appreciated the logs provided by Louisa for the wood burning stove in the living room. Communication with Louisa was easy and she was very prompt to reply. It was very convenient for visiting Wilson’s Prom which we did every day as walks in the park were as you would expect much better than walks from the house.

Peaceful and quaint country retreat

Nothing fancy but a great escape to an amazing part of the world. The walk to the bay/inlet is breathtaking. Sitting on the beach with no people, no noise, no cars just pure peace. The black swans were a highlight here. The house itself was cozy and warm with the wood heater putting out ample heat. The only downer was the bed mattress was too hard for me so I ended up on the couch by the third night. A soft mattress topper would be great :)

Great and convenient location for exploring the prom.

Easy and quick check in process. House is well kept. Semi remote location makes it quiet and peaceful at night times. Close to the national parks makes planning hikes convenient.
