Excellent location. Very comfortable and clean. Great outlook. Lots of extra supplies such as tea, coffee, milk left wh was great. Only tricky part was finding the actual accommodation- number in the house was hard to find and was confusing as the shed at the front of the property had a different number.

Hi Kathy, on the front page, 2nd paragraph of our information sheet is the following, "Large shed, solar on top and undercover parking . Number 18 on the shed and 231 on the post. (Used to be lot 231)"
A lovely beach front property, amazing views right out to sea. Well appointed kitchen and BBQ area. A great place to relax, do some fishing and enjoy downtime.
Chris is available to answer any queries. Place is beautiful, very well stocked with kitchen equipment, dishes, cutlery etc. for longer stays. Easy access to the beach few meters away. Massive covered area in the back, for the windy days. Love the kangaroos close by.
Great communication from host, very neat property with everything you need and very organised. Beautiful views, we watched dolphins swimming in the ocean from the front deck. We had a lovely time and will be back again in the future.
Admittedly blessed with perfect weather - just spectacular. Beachfront, perfect location to access cuttlefish, Whyalla 20 minutes away. Very happy with our stay.
This was one of the best places we have stayed at. Location was perfect and the house was amazing. It had everything we needed plus more and the views......WOW. We saw kangaroos jumping on the reef and the Whyalla Dive with the Giant Cuttlefish is just down the road is impressive. Highly recommend this place and doing the diving.
This has been one of the most fabulous places we have stayed at. This place had everything you need, including a comfortable bed and inviting couches to have a nap on. This place has all the comforts of home. And having the beach right on the front door step was an-absolute treat.
The layout of the house is so great…no matter what the temperature there is a perfect location to hang out. All the kitchen facilities and basics provided were perfect and so helpful. Had a fantastic time!
Was great family time on our weekend, we had a few problems but Chris was easy to get a hold of and things were solved

Originally from Whyalla this is our home for 4-5 months of the year and has been in our family since 1964. We built a new 4 bedroom house in 2013.
Why they chose this property
The peace and quiet are the big attractions. Add to that, amazing sunsets and views & sounds of the ocean.
We had an underwater documentary maker stay with us a few years back. The link below is what he filmed. It will give you a good look at our home and show you where to see the Giant Cuttlefish.
