Lovely Cabin
The property was very homely and cosy. My parents and I really enjoyed our time there and hope to visit again someday. It was in a wonderful peaceful location where you could see the stars. Emily was a great host, very fast to respond to any questions. Highly recommend, thanks Emily!

Secluded little spot
Great location. Way better than a caravan park/cabin as there is no one else around for miles (except the owners house nearby). Perfect for a family of 4. Would definitely return.

Easter in Hawker
The building and furniture are very dated. Not an issue in itself. But for old people the lounge chairs are too soft and low. The air conditioning in the kitchen does not enter the lounge dining space. It is an old through the wall rattler. Could do with ceiling fans, for extra ventilation. We were there for the Easter weekend, 25 metres away from the main homestead, at no stage did the owners make contact, to ascertain our wellbeing. The location is perfect for exploring the surrounding countryside, National Parks and Wilpena Pound, close enough to Quorn to enjoy a day out on the Pichi Richi Rail. The tariff is attractive compared to others in the area, especially as it is self-catering. Full size fridge, stove and washing machine are all available. The night sky is fantastic. Would I stay again? Yes!!

Geat cottage if you are looking for an authentic experience. Located on the homestead of a working property. Owners house was next door but they did not intrude. However the owner was extremely helpful when we needed any help. The cottage had everything we needed. Full fridge, oven, stove, coffee machine, microwave, stocked kitchen, washing machine. Easy access to Hawker and the Flinders. Beautiful sunsets and night skys. We will be back.... maybe not in the stormy season.

Flinders Ranges Summer Holidays
The little cottage was cute, and comfortably accommodated the 4 of us. There is an electric stove, fridge and comfortable beds, and fans in bedrooms, air conditioner in the living / kitchen area. The cottage is about 15 mins driver from Hawker. Hawker is the closest place to buy basic groceries, best to stock up in the summer from Port Agusta. The cottage provided us with a comfortable two night stay as we discovered the Flinders Ranges.

Thank you
Hillview Cottage was a great place to serve as a base as we explored the lower Flinders Ranges. It was clean, well set up and exactly what we were looking for. The hosts were friendly clear in their communication.

The serenity!
What a wonderful place to stay! The cabin is only about 8 km from Hawker but the place is utterly quiet and peaceful with views of the Flinders Ranges all around. Night sky to die for and as a special treat the farm's little dog and cat come over for visits. Never mind the decor's a little dated, it's very livable and surprisingly spacious. King bed a definite bonus.

Peaceful and quiet
This little cottage is 70's style, no frills but has all you need for a stay close to Wilpena without other people around. The sunsets are amazing and the location perfect for exploring the Flinders Ranges.

Lovely quiet location with great views
This property is in a lovely quiet location and we really enjoyed an afternoon bevvy looking at the stunning views. The host was very responsive and helpful too. Although the house is very livable, the only downside is the house inside, furniture, carpets, crockery, etc. is tired and very dated. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this stay to others, on the understanding to expect a dated interior.

Farm stay at Hawker
Comfortable cabin/cottage, bed super comfortable, quiet farm stay. Well appointed kitchen, had everything we needed including a pod coffee machine ! Place is a little dated, no wifi. Note it is about 10 minutes out of hawker on dirt country roads and 40 min from Wilpena pound. We visted amongst heavy rain period so check access to Hawker & WP. Overall nothing flash but it suited our needs for a short stay .

Great value and position
It’s a really nice little place, perhaps a little tired, but that being said it provides undeniable value for money and cleanliness is second to none. If you are looking for a rural hideaway close to all Ikara-Flinders has to offer then this is the spot. We’ll be going back.
