Beautiful!
We loved our stay here. The location was just out of the thick of it, but only a few minutes drive to everywhere. It felt secluded, the beds were comfy, amenities were great. 4 adults, 2 kids and a little doggy had a wonderful time here and would stay again!

A terrific stay - a home away from home
We had a lovely stay, the house has everything you need: space, light and a well equipped kitchen. We found that we could totally relax and unwind. A great garden to sit and listen to birdsong, read and sip the local wines with our pooches.

A wonderful holiday house, perfect for a medium to large family. Clean, cosy, comfortable. The owner is very approachable and ensures everything is ready upon arrival. A short walk to Mahalia coffee shop and playground, and into the town centre. Lovely!

Such a spacious, comfortable, well-located property. The perfect place to unwind. Dog friendly was an absolute bonus, and our border collie pup overcame his fear of walks on this trip and fell in love with running and playing in the nearby lake!

About the host

Hosted by Peter Fried

Host profile image
I grew up in Adelaide and have family and friends that live in Robe. My wife and children have been coming to Robe for over 40 years and just love the place as many people do. So much to do, enjoy and see. The secret has definitely got out.

Why they chose this property

People love our place because it creatively decorated and styled. Very spacious, secure and pet friendly. Sleeps 12 which is ideal for two families to share if required. The house is fully equipped with everty thing one would expect in their own home. The chef in the house will be impressed with every thing they require to cook up a storm.

What makes this property unique

Polished concrete bench tops and floors together with an open floor plan and white beam ceilings give you a feeling that you are in a different place and on holidays.
Such a pretty leafy private garden perfect for families with lots of space and is safely fenced providing a great space for children to roam and play.
