About this property

Ironbark Beach House Carrickalinga

A modern home, very comfortable, light and bright. Short distance to beach. Open plan living, front and rear deck. Pet friendly with prior consent.

Locality

Carrickalinga is in the vicinity of several wineries and fishing spots. It is only a 30 minute drive to Victor Harbor where whale watching has become a popular pastime. Views of Kangaroo Island can be seen from nearby Cape Jervis.

The beaches are wide with white sand that stretches down to the pristine water. Haycock Point, a much-photographed volcanic outcrop, separates North Carrickalinga and South Carrickalinga beaches.

Tjilbruke's trail follows the coastline through Carrickalinga.

The Tour Down Under bicycle race passes through the region each year.

Lovely and functional
The house has a very functional layout with a good yard for dogs. Just remember to take your own quilts and blankets in addtion to sheets. A few more basic provisions such as tissues, tea and coffee would make this place extra special. The host is kind and accomodating. We had a nice stay.

Celebration
A clean and tidy home, the website didn't clearly state that there were no blankets or quilts, we were lucky to have nearby family who could provide them for us.

Great location
Our dog loved the backyard she was right at home. The property itself was adequate, and 850 meters walk to the beach. Soo quiet at night. Needs blinds or curtains on front glass doors for more privacy.

IronBark Beach House. Brilliant 👌
I was overjoyed with our stay, IronBark Beach House was everything I wanted for our celebration of 50 years wedding anniversary. The location is perfect, close to the beach even our dog enjoyed the free run on the beach. The house is well set up for two couples or families with the 2 ensuite bathrooms. A lovely bright house with glorious bird song & many trees to give a feeling of total privacy from the neighbours & road. A well thought out kitchen, it had everything we needed. Oh, and just wait to see the large, colourful art work mural in the dinning space ! I loved it, so appropriate for a beach house, a very unique piece. Thank you for our great memorable stay of 3 days in September.

2 day stay for 2 plus dog
Bright, spacious and airy. Like the two bathrooms. Large outdoor area. Backyard a bit dry and dusty, not somewhere you want to sit to BBQ or eat. Everything clean. We had a dog and yard secure. Close walk to beach.

Contemporary house with quiet bushland garden
We really enjoyed out stay. The house is quite new, with lots of windows and is very comfortable - everything we needed. It has a nice bush garden which provides a very relaxing outlook. We brought our dog who also enjoyed the garden. A short walk to the beach - perfect.

Bush block holiday house
Great layout for 2 couples/families. Advertised as dog friendly but I would not let my dog loose in the very overgrown backyard. Was fenced. Need a rail on front steps and a good clean up outside.
