Cute retro-themed beach shack - 5 mins from the sea
Laid-back 1970s beach shack with the original retro mid-century vibe lovingly retained, but updated to include all the comforts of home. Go fishing or crabbing in the pristine Gulf St Vincent waters (5 mins walk away), relax on sandy Rogues Point Beach (just down the road) or simply enjoy a cup of coffee on the porch and soak up the ocean view. In winter, gather round the shack's cosy wood-burning heater, or build a bonfire on the beach and gaze at the wheeling stars in the clear dark skies. Please bring your own sheets and towels

The shack was lovely, reminded me of my childhood holidays. It was so quiet and just a stones throw away from the water and Ardrossan for shopping and fishing.
Great place to stay, easy to talk to the owners. Clean and tidy.
The only issues is that the phone service is terrible and the internet service is very limited.
Very spacious accommodation with lots of great amenities. Nice water views from the dinning room and front deck. Easy 2 minute walk to beach. Very quiet place to unwind & relax. Local community were very friendly. We enjoyed our stay!
Highly recommend this beautiful beach shack for a relaxing stay in a tranquil beach location.
A retro interior with all of the mod cons for comfort and the ultimate relaxation.
Great spot for day trips along the Yorke peninsula.
