About this property

⚓️The Ship Inn ⚓️Spacious Home located in Wallaroo<br><br>

The Ship Inn is over 100 years old and has been saved from ruin and totally renovated throughout.
It may look small from the outside but you will be pleasantly surprised at how spacious it is on the inside. The large back yard has plenty of room to fit your car, caravan and boat and then some. There is also a very unique outdoor open air shower and deep bath perfect for washing off sand from the beach or enjoying a bath and look at the stars. We have installed split system air conditioners to most parts of the house so you can be comfortable during hot and cold days. There is also a large combustion fire inside to enjoy during winter in the dining/kitchen which has a long dining table perfect for all to sit. Our house is spacious for big families to enjoy and share the cost for a very affordable getaway . All beds are made with fresh linen and 1 towel is supplied per person. Please bring beach towels. The 2nd bedroom can sleep 5 and has proven very popular with children with lots of books on offer and games to play. It also has a split system air conditioner.
The indoor bath room has a beautiful deep bath and spacious shower. The toilet is seperate from the bathroom. There is only 1 toilet in our old cottage. Sitting on the front veranda you can see the ocean looking west and can see the Ships coming In. The house is situated in a very quiet little street very close to everything. We have an outdoor sitting area out the back under the large peppercorn tree, BBQ and a little boat for children to play. We love our place and we know you will too.

The ideal accommodation in the ideal location. Goodies left for us were an added bonus, which the kids LOVED- Anglers pub a 4 min walk was lovely. Book ahead, a must. Walk into town or beach.Outdoor bathroom a HIT. The swing chair and grassy area a hit for the parents.Big enough backyard we played soccer. Will most definitely be staying again. Jutta is a lovely host and we thoroughly enjoyed trekking from Adelaide Hills to YP and staying in your Ship Inn.

Good Weekend Away

Lovely historic cottage lovingly renovated by Jutta and Nigel. Quiet location. Easy walk to the main street. Well equipped house. Lots of extra touches - garden, outside shower, homemade jam and croissants, fresh fruit. Absolute delight. Would recommend and stay again.

Perfect Wallaroo getaway

Jutta was a fabulous host. The house is very comfortable with everything you need. Every detail was thought of. It’s a short walk to the Main Street and close to the beaches and boat ramps. Nothing but positive things to say about the experience. Would highly recommend if looking for a place to stay in Wallaroo.

Fabulous property, wonderful helpful communcation. Higly recommended

We found The Ship Inn just perfect for our family and grandparents. It's renovated amazingly, in keeping with the style of the house, but modern appliances etc. Jutta's communication and helpfulness was wonderful. Loved that it was walking distance to the jetty, main street and marina. And a short drive to lovely Moonta and coast. We highly recommend it. Hope to be back.

The best!!

Such an amazing place to stay, it has everything you need and more . You only need to bring your food and bag. Such a well set up place for a holiday. The kids loved it. Plenty of games and jigsaws. The fire place in the kitchen really heats the whole house. The fire pit in the backyard was a bonus. We will be back!!

good

As we all are in the old/elderly group, we had difficulties in two areas: (1) getting into double beds,we had to walk sideways which we already have a balancing problems (2) for the same reason, the shower would be safer if we had something to hold on to.
