As the owner, what is your favourite thing to do at this property:

We love sitting in the jaccuzzi on sunset, with a gin and tonic and a plate of nibbles. This is the time of the evening the kangaroos come out to graze and you get a wildlife safari from the most relaxing vantage point!

What is your favourite trip close by:

Our location on the North Coast, near Stokes Bay is central to most highlights and our favourite which is a must do when visiting is the Flinders Chase National Park. Regenerating beautifully after the Black Summer bushfire, is home to the famous Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch and a large seal colony. There is nothing like watching the waves crash in from the Southern Ocean. On the way home drop into the Vivonne Bay General Store for a whiting burger to be taken down to the iconic Vivonne Bay beach where you can go for a walk or take a dip or both.

Guests should not forget to pack their…. Esky full of delicious easy to prepare produce and a sense of adventure. We are a 30 minute drive to the main town so you will want to make the most of our fully equipped kitchen.

How did you come to offer accommodation in the bush?

I am a farmer by trade and after having my second child was looking for a change and a more child friendly business for this stage of my life. I had seen this luxury couples retreat concept while on a farming travel scholarship and thought it would be perfect for Kangaroo Island.
