Great location, fun house

The Ark is a great house for a family beach holiday. You really can’t beat the location, being an easy walk from Horseshoe Bay, Knights Beach and Boomer Beach, not to mention the varied eateries of Port Elliot - do try to get to the bakery before 11am to avoid the queues! We enjoyed wonderful sunsets from the balcony, fun games of ping pong, and the kids enjoyed having their own space (incl separate bathroom) upstairs. Lots of room for everyone, and well equipped with games, books, DVDs and CDs. Thoroughly recommend, looking forward to our next stay.
