About this property

Carrickalinga PET FRIENDLY Beachhouse

PET FRIENDLY, Sea Views. FREE WIFI, Close to 3 1/2 Golf Courses & Local Wineries,waterfalls, country walks and trails great fishing and only a 2 minute walk to beach.
In winter this house has the most wonderful OPEN FIRE which fills the room with heat like no other and in summer the wonderful deck has a BBQ and outdoor setting, so you can enjoy the magnificent sunsets every night.
Escape the hustle and bustle of the city in a very quiet peaceful suburb which is surpassed by none.
This home is a one hour drive from Adelaide and you feel like you are in the country but are at one of the most beautiful unspoilt beaches in South Australia. This house has a fully fenced in yard for dogs, and the staircase has a gate with a lock to keep your small children safe.
Please note, ALL ADULTS MUST BE 30 YEARS OR MORE TO RENT THIS HOME, verification must be shown and all children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
This home has all modern facilities including split system R/C air conditioner upstairs (with 2 hour timer), Delonghi Nespresso coffee machine, dishwasher, separate freezer, microwave, 2 fridges, electric oven with 4 hotplates separate griller and oven, 4 Burner Gas BBQ (2 gas bottles are supplied but we have found that in the busy Christmas period these both tend to run out having back to back tenants). To compensate for this we have a jar on the fridge and each time you use the BBQ $2.50 is put in the jar. If a bottle does run out during your stay please use the money and swap the gas bottle at the service station, Mitre 10 or the supermarket), Ipod docking station/CD player, 2 HD televisions, 2 bedrooms both with Queen Beds fitted with electric blankets and one with a baby cot, downstairs TV room with 3 bunk beds (6 single beds). TENANTS MUST SUPPLY OWN LINEN. TOP AND BOTTOM SHEETS FOR ALL BEDS, PILLOW CASES AND BATH TOWELS. (Doona's and pillows on all beds are provided.) The bunk beds are for children not adults please.
Although the house sleeps 10, it is more comfortable with 8 people, 4 adults and 4 children, especially in winter when it is raining and all are inside.
For long weekends, it is a minimum 3 nights rental, however, you are entitled to a late check out on the Monday being 5pm instead of the normal 10am checkout.
There are shops both in Normanville and Yankalilla, which are the closest towns to Carrickalinga, only 4km drive or a lovely walk, with a paved path. There is a Mitre 10, Chemist, Foodland, Bakery, Pub and lots of take away food shops, plus more, to cover all your needs. There are a few local wineries, which are always a pleasure to visit and 3 and a half golf courses within 10 minutes drive. If you love fishing, I have caught, sand whiting, salmon, mullet, tommies and flathead from the beach and also a short drive away is Second Valley, which is a great spot for squidding.
Large Fully Fenced Yard
The big back yard is fully fenced for your young children and dogs.

Great yard for the dogs and weather was awesome until it rained then we had a lovely cozy fire. Plenty of room and beach nearby is amazing.

Peaceful Setting

A very relaxing stay. Julie is a wonderful host, very accommodating and so easy to communicate with. We took our 10yo Blue Heeler, she loved the fully fenced large yard. Close to beach and very relaxing. We had some hot weather, so effective air-conditioning and fans were very much appreciated. Will stay again. which she loved.

A very relaxing short stay

The property was very comfortable and we very much enjoyed the open fire with great views. We also took advantage of the great strolls to be had to the beach and local area. The property also suited us as it was very secure for our small dog.

Why they chose this property

We used to rent ths property in Winter for my husbands birthday and school holidays and loved the beautiful open fire place and views of the wild and woolly sea from the living area. We then started renting it for December school holidays and loved it so much that when it came up for buying we could not resist. So close to the beach, very short walk and just my home away from home. We have tried to include everything you will need for your stay including herbs and spices, pots and pans, glasses and staples ie cling wrap, garbage bags, alfoil etc. In the busy periods these may run out and I apologise in advance as when we have back to back rentals it is very hard to get down and replace, so please do bring some just incase.

What makes this property unique

2 minute walk to the beautiful beach.
