About this property

Ironbark Beach House Carrickalinga

A modern home, very comfortable, light and bright. Short distance to beach. Open plan living, front and rear deck. Pet friendly with prior consent.

Locality

Carrickalinga is in the vicinity of several wineries and fishing spots. It is only a 30 minute drive to Victor Harbor where whale watching has become a popular pastime. Views of Kangaroo Island can be seen from nearby Cape Jervis.

The beaches are wide with white sand that stretches down to the pristine water. Haycock Point, a much-photographed volcanic outcrop, separates North Carrickalinga and South Carrickalinga beaches.

Tjilbruke's trail follows the coastline through Carrickalinga.

The Tour Down Under bicycle race passes through the region each year.

Staying alone, I found it hard to relax at night without curtains blocking the view into the living room from the street. It's a really quiet area, there wasn't likely to be anyone out there and there are a few plants in-between but I found it uncomfortable with the full height windows.The house was lovely, clean and comfortable and had everything I needed. Sue's communication was really helpful when I had queries prior to booking.

Great location getaway!

As the name suggests even though it's a beach house it's surrounded by beautiful trees, birds and a short walk to the beach.
