Peace, quiet and relaxation
The property was easy to find with concise directions given by the hostess. The house was much bigger than it looked from outside, the rooms very spacious. We loved the little touches of the condiments cupboard which saved us buying things we were not going to completly use during our stay. The farm was such a relaxing place to be, we loved it and will be back (and have already recommended to other family)

Short holiday
Excellent accommodation. Suited us to be on the out skirts of town, fully self contained with facilities that enabled us to rest and have too. Not fancy, more homely, just what we needed!

Lovely farmstay in great location
Stayed here with the family on road trip from Melbourne to kangaroo island. Very comfortable house in separate block to hosts, with the lovely Ellie the horse for company. Close to the caves and easy half hour drive to Coonawarra wine region. So tranquil and relaxing and the kids were happy playing in the property and keeping Ellie company

Brilliant place to stay just outside of Naracoorte. The Outhouse is spacious, bright and clean, with a well-equipped kitchen and lovely peaceful surrounds. The host Rose was very friendly and helpful during our stay.

Escape to the country
A great place to stay and enjoy a unique country experience. The accommodation was beautifully nestled amongst trees in a pretty block with its own access. Birds, a horse and calves kept us entertained and being ten minutes drive from the Naracoorte caves meant further delights on our doorstep. The host Rose welcomed us on arrival and was easily contactable if needed during our stay. We had all the amenities we needed plus extras although the Vodaphone signal was poor (Telstra worked fine outside The Outhouse when it was needed). The beds were extremely comfortable and the shower was lovely! Overall we had a great stay and would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting to experience a country get away.

Perfect little cottage!
We stayed 4 nights at The Outhouse and if I could've stayed longer I would! Rose is so easy to communicate with and the little extras she left for us were just so nice. Max the dog came to visit on one morning and our girls just loved him and whole experience away from the suburbs. If you're looking for somewhere to base yourself to explore the limestone coast, I highly recommend you consider The Outhouse for the place you rest your head. Beds are comfortable and the place was perfectly clean on arrival with a lovely outdoor dining area among the beautiful grounds. Thank you Rose, for sharing your property with us!

A peaceful stay for a small family
Rosemary was a great host. She has looked in to every detail to make an enjoyable stay. The Outhouse has got a very beautiful and quiet surroundings. We loved the birds sound in the mornings and a morning and evening walk along the dirt road. We enjoyed the bbq as well. It was a very nice and relaxing holiday. The Outhouse is a nice place to recommend to any small family.

Spent a week in the south east. This was a wonderful place to have as home base
Spacious, peaceful, comfortable. Rose was a lovely host. Max the dog and the horses were happy for pats. The outhouse was clean with plenty of room. We loved our stay. So much better than being in a caravan park. We could enjoy the quiet, sit back and admire the beautiful location. Would definitely stay again.

Delightfully peaceful & still convenient
Enjoyed the serenity & hospitality of the outhouse, roomy & nicely appointed seperate accommodation. A pony called Prince to pat & beautiful views of surrounding countryside, it’s the perfect place to explore the Limestone Coast from. Ten minutes to the caves or into Naracoorte itself, an hour to Mt Gambier, it’s a great location. Thanks Rosemary!

Well equipped accommodation set in lovely countryside with all we needed for a lovely 4 day break. Nearest town only 10 minutes away by car. Rosemary met us and gave us some ideas for where to visit. A good place for visiting the wine region, caves and limestone coast.

Fantastic spot to stay
My wife, my sister-in-law and myself, stayed for 4 nights in October. It was a great base as we caught up with people and looked around the area. It is about 12 mins out of Naracoorte and was a peaceful and quiet location. Rose and her family made us feel welcome and Max the dog popped over each morning for a pat. My sister-in-law has mobility issues and had no problems while there. Facilities were excellent and we loved watching the blue wrens flittering around the place.

Everything you need inside and out!
My family stayed at The Outhouse whilst visiting Naracoorte Caves and we loved it. We had absolutely everything we needed for or two night stay but could have easily stayed a lot longer. The inside furnishings were contemporary, clean and well cared for, beds were super comfortable and the location was spot on, easy drive in to town for take away/eating out for dinner, there were also ample basic supplies and all utensils needed for a home cooked meal. Rose was very welcoming and offered help with the heating on the air-conditioning unit, and also provided some interesting information about the history of The Outhouse - originally being used as a seed research facility. The views of the fields and horses in the adjacent paddock were also a delight. I would happily recommend this property for short or longer stays and my family are also keen to return one day.

Why they chose this property

'The Outhouse' was originally set up as a Seed Research Centre, as part of what was previously known as Wrightson's Farm (now our family home - 'Elimbah')
When we purchased the property - we renovated The Outhouse so we could live there while we renovated the main home.
We loved our time at The Outhouse, it is comfortable and quiet, and a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the surrounds.
