Unique experience - the room was a great size and the amenities were good. It was a little too warm at night for us and would have been good to have had the option of air con in our room.

The panoramic view from the outside verandah was amazing. The bed was comfortable, good water pressure and plenty of hot water with the shower. Owners were friendly and helpful. Very quiet setting and clean.

Great property but be aware there is no Aircon in the rooms. Fine for Australians as inside is always 15oC cooler than outside but we Canadians have trouble sleeping in 28oC inside.

A Coober Pedy classic. Novel place to stay rooms are clean and dark! With a neat little kitchen area to prepare meals. We had nice conversations with the owning couple always happy to chat about the local area and things to do. Happy with our stay.
