About this property

Bussy's Beach House - relaxing quiet getaway

Bussy's Beach house is self contained waterfront accommodation approximately 15 minutes drive from Wallaroo & Kadina, with beautiful uninterrupted views west across Spencer Gulf looking towards Cowell, it has 2 bedrooms, which can sleep 5. There is plenty of parking out the back & to the side, so you can bring your boat to take advantage of the fishing. Supplied is a nespresso coffee pod machine, dishwasher, BBQ & a fully functional kitchen. 2 TV's & DVD's.

Linen supplied, beds made & ready to go, all you need to bring are your beach towels.

Crab rakes & crab cooker are supplied and fish cleaning facilities too. There are 2 kayaks supplied as well with 2 adult sized lifejackets.

Tickera is a quiet fishing/farming town, without a shop, so supplies need to be organised before, or you can drive the short distance (approx. 15 to 20 minutes) to Wallaroo or Kadina, or weekdays there is a delicious takeaway in Alford (10 minutes drive) Karimi's takeaway, she makes the best chicken burgers! and friday's she makes scrumptious curries. The house is adjacent to a rough golf course, a walking trail in front along the foreshore is very relaxing. There is a historic well just around the corner, or just sit on the front veranda & read a book or look at the amazing sunsets across the water. There are 2 playgrounds within close walking distance, which children will love. The local community centre has the occasional drinks night & meals usually once a month, I will let you know if you book when this is on.

We are more than happy to supply a delicious welcome basket of bread, free range eggs from happy chooks, locally smoked bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, milk & butter (from $45). Or if you are just wanting to arrive without the hassle of shopping on your way, we can supply food too.


Strictly no smoking inside our property & no pets.

Would stay again

Here is your proofread version:---We absolutely loved staying there. The house exceeded our expectations. It had everything you need for a comfortable stay: laundry, a fully equipped kitchen, a veranda with a lovely view, and comfortable outdoor furniture. Carolyn is the most hospitable host I have met so far, and we’ve stayed in similar places many times in Australia and overseas. I highly recommend her optional breakfast basket with quality groceries. It was very handy for us because we arrived late in the evening and there are no shops in Tickera, so it was very nice to have supplies for breakfast. When it comes to shops and restaurants, you can find many in nearby towns, just a short 15-20 minute drive away. The beaches are not suitable for swimming, but there are walks along them. Tickera is famous for catching crabs, and we tried our luck—alas, we found only one small crab. This was likely due to a recent visit from a commercial fishing ship. Overall, this place is great for people who want to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, which was our aim. It's a pity I had already booked another place for the next part of our journey; otherwise, I would have gladly stayed longer in Tickera.I've corrected some , aw mo adjustments!

We had a wonderful five days at Busseys. It was nice, relaxing and quiet. We went out to lunch at a restaurant recommended by our host to celebrate our 63rd wedding anniversary. We would definitely recommend Busseys beach house.

Happy Oldies

I would love to thank the host ,Carolyn, for sharing the most beautiful beach house with us. We have never stayed in such a well organised and CLEAN holiday house.

You can come and clean for us anytime. We will be back for sure. Thanks again for everything Carolyn. Regards Marie. ❤️👍👌

Lovely getaway

The property itself was wonderful, really comfortable and generously supplied. I recommend getting one of the hampers. Very tasty. The beach wasn't great for swimming etc, (lots of seaweed on the beach/in water) but still nice for walking/exploring with the kids.

This was our second stay in the beautiful Tickera and we will 100% be back for a third visit. Amazing views, peaceful town with friendly people and an amazing property with everything you need! Close proximity to the bigger tourist towns while being the perfect location to enjoy peace and quiet and relax!

Exceeded expectations

Bussy's is a great little place above the beach. The location is incredibly peaceful. Carolyn was a great host, responsive to texts and very accommodating. The house was presented beautifully and thoughtfully, and the garden was a great bonus feature. We loved kayaking, raking for crabs, bird watching, spotting unusual insects and a blue tongue lizard in the yard, listening to the frog in the pond and the gorgeous sunsets from the front balcony. A wonderful getaway.
