House was very clean and suited two families staying together so well. So good to have linen and towels provided! Plenty of space for everyone. Quick walk to the beach and a 15 minute walk to town. The host had excellent and clear communication. Really enjoyed our short trip. House and location perfect. Thank you!

Home away from home

It was so easy to settle in on arrival, and feel the restful peace of the environment. The accommodation was great with plenty of room for 10. Early morning and evening walks along the beach became the norm. Our 5 days felt like well over a week.

We’re very lucky to be located so close to the beach for daily walks. Maybe your family could make this an annual relaxing vacation? You’re welcome to return again in the future. Happy 2025 John!

Situated in a great location, short walk to the beach, down the road from Forktree brewery. It was great having separate sections and living rooms. We had to amend the booking during the process and the help and support was fantastic. Definitely recommend the stay!

About the host

Hosted by Miranda

Host profile image
I’m from South Australia. I love long lunches with family and friends, visiting our SA wineries and kicking the soccer ball. I like cooking, spending time at the beach and listening to all different types of music. I love to meet people and hear about their unique life stories.

Why they chose this property

Normanville offers the best beaches around, and I’ve travelled to many. I love the white sand and crystal clear waters being a short stroll away.

What makes this property unique

I love sitting outside with a book and glass of wine, watching the children play. Listening to the waves crashing is a relaxing delight to experience in my very own back yard. I love how surrounded by nature our home is. Watching the kangaroos, spotting a hare, listening to the birds in the morning reminds me of how lucky we are.
