About this property

LITTLE WHITE SHACK on the beach, Hardwicke Bay, Yorke Peninsular

LITTLE WHITE SHACK

Located on the sand dunes overlooking Hardwicke Bay our shack is absolute beach front with no road between you and the beach. While soaking up the 180-degree water views on the deck you can watch the kids playing on the beach or swimming in the shallow child friendly waters.

If you love a walk or drive on the beach, you’ll find a 15km stretch of unspoilt white sandy coastline to explore all the way to Port Turton just outside your front door. For those who like to go boating or fishing Hardwicke bay boasts some of the best squid and whiting fishing in SA.

The original fisherman’s shack has recently been renovated while still maintaining its “shack” feel and has an open living area integrated into the kitchen. Large stainless-steel bench tops and sink form the backbone of the kitchen and offer expansive bench space for food preparation. The kitchen is decked out with all modern appliances and high-quality chef knives, utensils, cutlery and crockery.
The sleeping quarters (2 adults and 4 children, 6 people in total) consist of 3 bedrooms the main with a queen size bed and 2 bunk rooms with a single bunk bed in each room.

Guests are asked to provide all towels, top and bottom bed sheets; Pillows, quilts and covers are provided for all beds.

*****If necessary, towels and sheets can be provided at a cost of $25/Bed.*****
*****An extra pet cleaning fee may be charged depending on the condition of the shack on departure.******

Please give me a call or text on 0412353440 should you have any questions.

A lottle slice of paradise

The Little White Shack is a delightful place to stay, this was our 3rd visit, and each time we arrive, we are instantly relaxed. Watching the pelicans from either the couch or the balcony is a delight. The shack is suitable for a couple, or a family with 2 sets of bunks. Our little white dog, Coco enjoys her stay as well. Thanks to the host for sharing this little gem.
