Surfing holiday with the dog

Fantastic house, it had all that we needed to enjoy Goolwa Beach, and the backyard was great for the dog. We used it as a base to surf at Goolwa and Middleton, and could work during the day using the excellent wifi. The dog loved walks to the beach though the dunes. Highly recommended for a beach holiday.

Simply Perfect

Very neat, clean and tidy. Felt like home away from home. Very cosy and comfy especially in the cold nights, the fire was excellent, hardly used the split system reverse cycle. Great selection of CD's too. Excellent backyard for our dogs to play in and so close to the beach track. Excellent bathroom, laundry and large fridge. Everything you need in the well equiped kitchen and high quality cooking pots and pans. Good supply of cleaning and general amenities and very well laundered bedding, tea towels etc. We had a wonderful and very relaxing stay and highly recommend the Little Beach House.
