"This is an excellent stay with beach views from the large balcony. There is a great coffee making machine and a washer/dryer (clothes airer also) which we needed after a long road trip. Its a short drive to Victor Harbour, and an easy walk to the Port Eliot town centre, with good options for breakfast and dinner.The fireplace was welcome in the winter - be aware it is a townhouse and the kitchen/living are up a flight of stairs. All up, an excellent stay."
