Lovely relaxing time

The place was small but very clean & everything we needed was provided. A short walk to the beach & I loved listening to the sound of the sea from where we were. Excellent fenced yard for our dog - he was so excited going for a walk along the beach each evening. Lovely place to stay.

We were very impressed with the house and its location. It was very well appointed and met all our needs. Even our dog enjoyed his stay, having a secure yard to run around in. The host Michelle was very lovely and helpful. We will be back for sure.

Fantastic stay at Middleton

Location can't be beat if you are a beach/dog lover. Quiet enough away from the hustle and bustle but a short drive to all the beachside towns. Surf and dog beach in walking distance. Short 5 minute drive to Horseshoe bay for a quick swim. Property itself is cosy and clean. We loved the covered outdoor area just relaxing outside and enjoying the sea breeze and sounds.

our perfect family getaway!

We had an absolutely perfect stay at this holiday shack! From the cozy atmosphere to the convenient amenities, everything exceeded our expectations. The space was ideal for our family of three, including our nearly 3-year-old son and two dogs. The location was fantastic, offering both tranquility and accessibility to nearby attractions. We couldn't have asked for a better getaway. Highly recommended for families and pet owners looking for a memorable and stress-free vacation!

Great family weekend away

We loved the accomodation for many reasons. Location- short walk to a beautiful beach. Lots of space - there were two great outdoor options, the one completely under cover and the other open with views of the ocean and a fire pit. Our dogs loved the space too. We are so happy we could bring them along. The house was clean with all the amenities you could need. We will definitely be back!

Great communication throughout and an easy check in and out. The shack is humble but with a recent refurb and refresh. Well stocked with all the kitchen tools to cook. Dishwaher and good washing machine a bonus. Outdoor area was great to have also. We have a dog but he had to stay in NZ but we would have loved to have him with us it is a great pet friendly set up. Beach is lovely and a short stroll you can hear the waves from the shack. Middleton shopping is a short drive with a great little supermarket a few shops etc. No wifi for me was only an issue when wanting to check in with family. Was able to hot spot off my partners phone though.Recommended you look at booking the shack if you want a real beachy break or exploring the great local towns and beaches within short drives away.

Great enjoyable stay

This place was everything that we needed for our visit to attend our friends wedding. Close drive to large supermarkets. A handy place to branch out to visit the Coorong and surrounding wine regions. One comment is that the tap in the bathroom basin has bad water hammer and would be better to be replaced with a small mixer tap. Also the hot water system should be fitted with a tempering valve to reduce the risk of scalding as the water is extremely hot. (this is a legal requirement in NSW, we assume it would be the same in S.A.)
