Wake up to the sound of crashing waves when you stay at this unique home located on Encounter Bay Beach. It’s the ideal setting to get up a little earlier and enjoy the sunrise. You can walk or cycle on one of the many trails, or take a short journey to Adelaide for a taste of city life. Your host Sue will make you feel right at home.

The house you’ll stay in has a rich history. It was built in 1830 by whalers and sealers from Cornwall, England. This time period comes to life through the architecture of the home - there are thick stone walls and sturdy wooden beams. The house has two bedrooms, one with a queen-size bed and the other with a double bed. There is also a kitchen and a bathroom. From the veranda, you have a beautiful view of the beach.
