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.

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!
