Amazing Property with Spectacular Views

If you are looking for accommodation that has the most spectacular views, is extremely well appointed, exceptionally clean and comfortable then "Bower by the Sea" is the place for you. Our family felt very lucky to have had 11 nights at this amazing property. Everything you could need and want was supplied. Watching dolphin play from the front deck was a highlight on most days....incredible views. Thank you so much Darian and Peggy for sharing your little piece of paradise with us.

Penneshaw Retreat

This is a terrific house and was perfectly appointed by the hosts. The little touches made us feel quite secure, and the position of the home allowed us to arrive late and leave early. Instructions came through a couple of days after we had booked, but they were clear and comprehensive when they did.

About the host

Hosted by Peggy & Darian

Host profile image
Peggy and Darian live in South Australia and own and manage an advertising agency and Bowerbird. Our downtime often consists of gardening, pottery, cooking, dining out, hikes and regional day or weekend trips. Our destinations are usually centred around a restaurant we love or a local shop filled with old wares or local hand-made treasures.

Why they chose this property

We love visiting regional Australia. Whether it is the Clare Valley, Margaret River or Kangaroo Island, each destination has a uniqueness. Kangaroo Island has become a place of relaxation. The quick trip on the ferry helps to bring a sense of escaping day-to-day activities with a sea-change in-sight to recharge regardless of the weather. The sound of the ocean when you awake, the uninterrupted views all day. A walk on the beach or through other landscapes the island offers. A winery for lunch or a home-cooked meal. Kangaroo Island truly is a great place to visit and unwind.

What makes this property unique

Bower by the Sea is not a holiday shack it is a home where you can truly relax and unwind.
