About this property

LITTLE WHITE SHACK on the beach, Hardwicke Bay, Yorke Peninsular

LITTLE WHITE SHACK

Located on the sand dunes overlooking Hardwicke Bay our shack is absolute beach front with no road between you and the beach. While soaking up the 180-degree water views on the deck you can watch the kids playing on the beach or swimming in the shallow child friendly waters.

If you love a walk or drive on the beach, you’ll find a 15km stretch of unspoilt white sandy coastline to explore all the way to Port Turton just outside your front door. For those who like to go boating or fishing Hardwicke bay boasts some of the best squid and whiting fishing in SA.

The original fisherman’s shack has recently been renovated while still maintaining its “shack” feel and has an open living area integrated into the kitchen. Large stainless-steel bench tops and sink form the backbone of the kitchen and offer expansive bench space for food preparation. The kitchen is decked out with all modern appliances and high-quality chef knives, utensils, cutlery and crockery.
The sleeping quarters (2 adults and 4 children, 6 people in total) consist of 3 bedrooms the main with a queen size bed and 2 bunk rooms with a single bunk bed in each room.

Guests are asked to provide all towels, top and bottom bed sheets; Pillows, quilts and covers are provided for all beds.

*****If necessary, towels and sheets can be provided at a cost of $25/Bed.*****
*****An extra pet cleaning fee may be charged depending on the condition of the shack on departure.******

A lottle slice of paradise

The Little White Shack is a delightful place to stay, this was our 3rd visit, and each time we arrive, we are instantly relaxed. Watching the pelicans from either the couch or the balcony is a delight. The shack is suitable for a couple, or a family with 2 sets of bunks. Our little white dog, Coco enjoys her stay as well. Thanks to the host for sharing this little gem.

Serene and relaxing

Lovely shack, exactly as expected. Right on the beach front with glorious views of a lake like bay, bird life and stunning sunsets. A real beach shack that is very comfortable, has all you need for a chilled time away. We were there in November and had the beach practically to ourselves which meant there was no sound but that of nature. A must stay.

Perfect easy get away for families

Couldn’t think of a more idyllic location for families with children. The beach is right on your doorstep to enjoy from sun up ‘til sun down. Whether fossicking in the rock pools for crabs, swimming in the calm, kid friendly shallow waters, kayaking or just enjoying leisurely strolls along the shore line - there is something for everyone. The cottage was well appointed with all the creature comforts to make our stay easy and enjoyable whilst maintaining an authentic shack feel. A little slice of heaven, will definitely book again.

Absolutely charming

This is a lovely place to stay. The ocean views from the comfort of the deck (and lounge) are spectacular. It was clean and well stocked. The kids loved being able to splash about on the beach just meters away while we watched from the comfort of our deck chairs. Charming and relaxing, would highly recommend!
