Peaceful stay. Birdwatching was excellent, bonus echidna strolling through the yard. Great beginner fishing just down the road. Lots of space, and Lesley was kind enough to allow our dog to stay too.

This lovely house has versatility to be used in all seasons. With a lovely reverse cycle heater and large windows for the morning sun. Then a deck and barbie for the afternoon gatherings. Also equiped with many games, books and DVDs.The TV was a puzzle to us but that was not what the escape for. We went to visit family in the region.

Quiet location

The property offered all we wanted, but needed better cleaning in a few spots ie BBQ, oven trays, inside rubbish bin. However overall would definitely recommend.

Relaxing quiet location

Check-in process was easy. Lesley was very responsive. The house was nice and homely, clean and tidy. Loved the art work and deco. The garden well maintained and dog proofed. It was nice to sit outside on the deck in the mornings and evenings and listen to the birds sing.The location is nice and quiet, even though it was the Easter break. Great place to unwind and relax. If we were living in South Australia, would definitely be a place we visit often.

Lesley was wonderful to communicate with and super helpful. The place was well-equipped (especially the kitchen) with a very comfy bed in the master room. The garden was beautiful and completely dog-friendly for our pup Ruby. We loved being located just one street back from the water—it gives great shelter from the strong winds.My only suggestion would be a TV upgrade in the main lounge for guests who love catching up on movies, shows, or music videos while unwinding. Overall, it’s a brilliant place to stay, and we’ve already booked our return trip for next year!

The Owner of This House Has Good Taste!

It was a wonderful and relaxing stay for our family at Lesley's place in Clayton Bay, she has spacious and beautiful gardens as well as a massive deck, the size of the house was bigger than what's shown in the pictures, we really enjoyed and appreciated the space we had at this holiday house, and the eye-catching artworks she had on display, just gorgeous, thank you!

Perfect - for us

A well appointed, and very comfortable, home away from home. Just perfect for our needs, wanting peace and quiet with a safe fenced garden for the dogs and extra parking space too. All of our boxes were ticked. Home owner was great at communicating all that we needed to know and was easily contactable if we needed anything😁
