We had an amazing family holiday. The house had everything we needed, including a dishwasher, wifi, two enormous tvs, comfy beds are was safe for dogs.
What a wonderful place to stay! Very child and pet friendly. Our daughter LOVED the swing set and the dogs were safely secured in the backyard. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach everyday. Would definitely recommend this place for families. We can't wait to come back.
A well equipped house for a home away from home for the weekend. Perfect spot and only a few minutes from everything. Seems small from the front - but spacious living areas and sleeping areas to be explored as you go inside! Thanks for having us.
It's beautiful place. House is clean and warm. Even though the power went out the first night, the house had candles.Allowed us to enjoy a candlelit dinner. Highly recommended.thanks
Looking fir a quiet few days over Christmas to escape the madness at this time of year. Perfect for our dog, secure neat quiet abd walkable to beach shops abd such a great friendly town. Proprry had ample room large bedrooms with a few extras like games , dry food large fridge and BBQ.
Love this place. Only thing I could say is update info- it says there’s foxtel but there wasn’t. Also says no WiFi but they have that available. Very clean and tidy and close to beach, will be back!
Very comfortable, clean and convenient. It was also a nice quiet area and therefor a relaxing few days.
We tried to contact the owners, to say, the air conditioner near the deck area wouldn’t work, and we could not get sound on the tv near the front door.
My email went to the outbox and would not send.
We had a fantastic stay at Elliott's lodge. The property was bigger than we expected. The 2 separate living areas was great and the place didn't feel crowded with 5 adults. Pet friendly with an enclosed backyard which was the reason we chose to stay. It's really hard to find pet friendly accommodation that is also fully enclosed. Only suggestions to the owners would be to add a hair dryer to the list of items supplied at the property and perhaps instead of providing foxtel, WiFi would be more versatile. Thanks for a great stay, we'll certainly be recommending you!
Chose this property because of its location and amenities and especially because two of the bedrooms had queen size beds providing both of us with our separate space.
Couldn’t fault the house setup, heating, cooking facilities, bathroom, comfortable beds.
We knew there would be no wi fi at the property but expected the operation of the two TV’s to be straight forward. It wasn’t. There were no “cheat sheets” to refer to (mentioned as available in the confirmation letter) leading me to confer back and forth with the hosts for advice and help through texts. In the end we decided that getting 2 TV stations ( ABC and SBS) was better than none and discontinued texts with the hosts. Consequently we were disappointed that the issue of “no signal” on the other channels wasn’t resolved during our stay but seeing it was only for 3 nights, it was bearable and didn’t taint our overall impression of our stay in Moonta which we enjoyed.
Great little getaway spot. Walking distance to beach, short drive to Moonta and Port Hughes. House was a cozy stay for us and we would definitely recommend this place.
