About this property

Cozy cottage close to beach and bluff

Welcome to Cakebread Cottage. Situated only a couple of streets back from the esplanade, you'll enjoy ready access to the beach, Encounter Bikeway, The Bluff plus Whalers Restaurant, Yilki Store, Beach House Café and new Boat Ramp all close by. With a northerly aspect you'll enjoy winter sunshine into the living space or summer comfort thanks to the reverse cycle air conditioning. Enjoy a coffee on the rear balcony with views of Granite Island. There's no wi-fi so disconnect the devices and connect with one another, or if you must there's good 4G/5G coverage from the major networks.

Less than 10 minutes drive to the centre of Victor Harbor with all major supermarkets available 7 days and many local attractions including the famous Steam Ranger Cockle Train and horse-drawn tram to Granite Island.

If you feel like cooking, there's a full kitchen with pantry (including some pantry basics like flour, oil, salt, pepper and sauces), fridge, microwave, kettle, toaster, oven and cooktop. Enjoy your morning coffee from the Nespresso machine or brew a fresh tea with the provided Daintree tea leaves.

There's two bedrooms, with all linen provided. The first is set up with a queen bed while the second has a king single plus double with single over bunk. There's adequate storage in the built-in wardrobes plus drawers.

If you're staying a while, the laundry has a front-loader washing machine and powder is provided. There's also an iron and board.

Loved our stay!

Loved staying here. It was a very comfortable and well presented cottage and we felt instantly at home . All that we needed for our stay was there and the location was perfect being just a quick stroll to the beach.
