The property is next door to the owner on a suburban block, but you wouldn't know. It is wonderfully secluded, with private gardens that include a verandah, where we spent a lot of time sitting in the morning sun and reading, as well as a fire pit.The property is centrally located, close to all shops and restaurants. We had a wonderful time exploring the region, which is spectacular.

Good things come in small packages

A hermit could be very happy in this hermitage cottage. Cosy cottage has everything you need, well appointed, quality furnishings and homewares. Great little kitchen and laundry facilities, surrounded by a lovely garden, all in a very small footprint. Enough room for two hermits, so long as you’re on very good terms.

Our 6 day stay at Hermitage Cottage Port Lincoln

From the moment we arrived, we knew that our stay at Hermitage Cottage was going to be the holiday experience we had hoped for. Accessing the cottage was a simple process via a key code. The beautiful gardens were a delight & we spent many an hour relaxing in them & having a BBQ on the Webber provided. The Cottage was very comfortable, clean, cosy & exceptionally stocked with everything & more that was needed for a stress free, chill out holiday. The location of the Cottage is easy to find, with lovely views & a short distance from the beautiful foreshore with all the amenities needed to make for a delightful holiday. Communication with Uta is informative, helpful & friendly. We would like to thank Uta & Damien, for providing us a wonderful holiday experience, one we won't forget & we would love to repeat the experience.

Lovely cozy garden cottage

We enjoyed our stay at this freshly renovated property. Well equipped with everything you need for an enjoyable stay in Port Lincoln and located just a short walk into town. Owners were very good hosts and the log burner made the cottage very cosy for staying in the cooler weather.

Compact and well designed cottage

We stayed here for three days. The inside of this cottage was well designed and interior based on green, gray and orange was stylish. It would be nice to visit here in winter as there was a fire place, too. It was a perfect size for us and we enjoyed a relaxing time there. It also convenient to go to the town centre. My husband and I went to a restaurant near the beach in the evening on foot and it was a comfortable walk. I wish I could stay two or three days more. The owner was a very friendly and kind couple. I thank them for giving local information.
