Do keep in mind though that the walk will be uphill on the return. The house has far-reaching views to both the coast and the hills, and a lovely sheltered deck on which to enjoy your coffee or lunch. There is a large back yard, accessed by walking around the side of the house. If you wish to have access to all that Victor Harbor has to offer, yet want to stay in a quiet, secluded neighbourhood, then this is the place for you. The house is also very close (200 metres) to the Inman River walking trail with beautiful birdlife and this walk can take you right to the River Mouth and the beach. Access to the garage is not permitted and the washing-machine is only available to Long-stay guests (6+ days) because of water costs and environmental reasons. The cottage sleeps a maximum of 4 guests. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Parking and transport - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Yard ### Laundry - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the sea ### Things to do - Basketball nearby - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Sailing nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/114000000/113370000/113364000/113363990/eb0565bd.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming 2-Bedroom Holiday Retreat with Pool Victor Harbor - Pool - Air conditioning - Outdoor space - Parking available 8.0 Very good 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-05&endDate=2025-12-06&selected=113363990&PinnedHotelID=113363990&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/10000000/9630000/9627200/9627134/3b55f7ca.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### NRMA Victor Harbor Beachfront Holiday Park Victor Harbor - Pool - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.2 Wonderful 598 reviews £55 includes taxes & fees 11 Dec - 12 Dec [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-11&endDate=2025-12-12&selected=9627134&PinnedHotelID=9627134&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33550000/33545800/33545795/c506ff8e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Southern Escape - A Family Friendly Home 3 minute walk to the Beach VICTOR HARBOR - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 157 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-05&endDate=2025-12-06&selected=33545795&PinnedHotelID=33545795&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33560000/33552600/33552569/d86c1d58.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Comfortable Unit Close to the Beach Victor Harbor - Washer - Air conditioning - Parking available - Microwave 7.4 Good 17 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-05&endDate=2025-12-06&selected=33552569&PinnedHotelID=33552569&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/71000000/70970000/70969200/70969178/fd421837.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Amazing sea and hills views.

Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### George 15 May 2023 Disliked: Communication 2 days prior to our arrival we received the normal confirmation of our booking and instructions for entry. We arrived to check in at normal check in time and briefly settled into the cottage before heading off to town for an evening meal. On return at 7pm we found our belongings including open suitcases outside the front door and another couple inside the house. We contacted the property manager who informed us that our booking had been cancelled some time before. (Not by us incidentally) We had to find alternative accommodation in town on a dark night. The property manager arranged a full refund for our booking. Expedia has not provided us with an apology or an explanation as to why our booking which was made 4 months previously was cancelled. We were less than impressed with this debacle. ##### George Stayed 3 nights in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Judy D. 24 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Tranquil Retreat Great place to get away from it all.
