Second Valley

Located 91KM's South of Adelaide, Second Valley is divided into two parts - the old mill on the main road and down the Valley to the sea, a tiny coastal port reminiscent of a Cornish fishing village.

Second Valley is ideal as a Kangaroo Island stopver only 15 minutes drive from the ferry or 20 minutes from Deep Creek conservation Park with its spectacular secnery and bushwalks. A short drive to several stunning golf courses and there is plenty more to see and do.

Things to do?

If you're into snorkeling, there are rock pools with fish and other sea creatures to discover including the famous leafy sea dragon.

If you like fishing, why not try for squid or garfish on the historic Second Valley built in the 1800's otherwise the brand new jetty at Rapid Bay is only 10 minutes away where the snapper might be biting.

In summer the secluded beach is fantastic for families and offers crystal clear water and a safe and friendly environment for the kids to play.

Cosy getaway
The house was well equipped, very clean, cosy and nestled in a peaceful spot close to beautiful scenery, and not far to the nearest town. Great for a weekend retreat after a busy week at work.

Weekend away
Lovely property, clean and well presented. Lots of natural light and great location. Will definitely stay again. Only feedback we have is with linen not supplied, the king size bed in the main bedroom may not be accesible to all. We had to purchase king bed sheets to take advantage of the beautiful space.

amazing place
The house was beautiful with gorgeous artwork, fantastic balcony/deck, all appliances worked and were great, plenty of room, great shower and kitchen. Heating in all rooms which was needed at this time of year (July). 7 females, 49-61 years old, having a catch up and a great laugh. Beautiful walk to the beach and jetty and lots of hills to climb (but we didn't!) and a very reasonable price for us to stay - Thank you!

Second time back and loved it even more!
We love this cosy shack! It has everything you need and more! Comfy beds, great shower, lots to do even on the wet days under the terrace. We just love it coming to Randalsea and can’t wait to stay again. Thanks Kalinda, you are always such a pleasure to deal with on all levels. 👌

Perfect relaxed holiday house
Great place for a family holiday. A very comfortable house, with a beautiful outlook. Has all the things you need, but it's not so fancy that you're worried about your kids destroying the place! Lots of thoughtful touches too - like a well provisioned kitchen, extra snorkels, a night light in the corridor, and just so many books! We loved it.

The house was very nice and well set up. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped. It was great to have a dishwasher and be able to sit outdoors under the veranda for meals. Only a short walk to the beach. My children and I really enjoyed our stay.

Easy Get-away
We stayed for the October long weekend, 2 generations of family and dogs. Yard is secured and easy for the furry ones to explore in safety. We loved the deck and the barbecue was very welcome for cooking outside with the beautiful weather. Beds were very comfortable and overall was great accomodation and an easy walk to the beach. Loved it

what a great place for a short stay
My son & I were very impressed, was like a home away from home. Facilities / fitout - everything you could possibly need. Only 2 negatives, the ceiling fans need dusting & the leather lounge needs a decent clean. Overall, 9/10.

Very comfortable overnight stay. A small portable table to put drink on whilst in the lounge would be a minor improvement and reminder to bring bath mat! but seriously was a wonderful get away. Location was great and had a gorgeous evening walk, thanks also for ability to have 1 nighter.
