Tranquility in the bush
Secluded within the National Park, this is a lovely peaceful place surrounded by trees and wildlife - especially birds. You can't actually see the sea from there, but the park is great with wonderful walks and a feeling of being alone with nature.

Peaceful solitude
We were surprised by the remote location, but enjoyed the beautiful home! The accommodations (including the stocked pantry) were great! We saw a family of kangaroo and enjoyed our hikes. There were a ton of flies that we were not quite prepared for, but kept us company :). We used the house as a base for kangaroo island so had a full SA experience!

Beautiful, quiet getaway
Property even better than described, very peaceful surrounds with multiple native bird species and kangaroos seen within metres of our retreat over our 4-night stay. No TV, wifi or cellular reception (including Telstra), which was perfect for unwinding on our trip. Very useful information about nearby hikes and businesses provided by the hosts, this is wonderful accomodation and very good value for the price, highly recommended!
