Post wedding gathering

Property was nicely located and well set up. Apart from the spare gas bottle for bbq !! First bottle ran out and went to change out early in cooking BIG tomahawk steaks. The replacement bottle thread was wrong and not able to connect. Had to grab a spare bottle from a different rental house. Not ideal!!

Fabulous family holiday

8 adults and 2 children stayed here 4 nights for a family holiday and for a local wedding - it was fabulous. We also could take our small dogs and it had an enclosed back yard. Fabulous location with great sea views and was brilliant for family meals and chilling on the balcony. Lots of extras and great cooking facilities. Would definitely stay again.

Great family holiday

House was perfect for a holiday for an extended family group. There was plenty to do even in the event of bad weather, the pool table room at the back provided a great option for those who want something more active than board games. Location, provides excellent base for walks.

this property was just right for our group of 8 adults (4 x couples) and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Plenty of space, good cooking facilities - pantry even has a selection of sauces & spices etc we were able to use, comfy beds and clean and tidy. Nice view of the sea from the front balcony. 5 mins walk to the beach and short drive to Victor Harbour. I appreciated the prompt communication when we booked.

Three days stay at Port Eliot SA

The process was very smooth and straightforward. The home at self seeded our needs with one family having the downstairs and two single people upstairs. The views were lovely and we enjoyed the opportunity of long walks on the beach and close vicinity to the shops, about a 10 minute walk with the dog.
