Settlers Cottage - Snellings Beach - Kangaroo Island

This beautiful three-bedroom cottage is built from old sandstone from the original settlers to Kangaroo Island. It combines the gorgeous views of Snellings Beach and the surrounding bush. Each bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom which is very handy for larger groups. Two king bedrooms and one twin single bedroom, plenty of space for the family. The kitchen is fully equipped for all your culinary needs and located so you don't miss what's going on in the rest of the house.
With views of native bush gardens, rolling hills, and the ocean only 150 meters away, you’re sure to start to unwind. Afternoon drinks on your own private deck or a good brandy by the open fire? The choice is yours.

Sleeps a maximum of six guests: 2 x king-bed rooms, 1 room with 2 singles, all rooms with ensuite bathrooms.

We loved our time at Settler’s Cottage.The views were absolutely beautiful, over looking the beach and bay. We loved the ambiance and layout of the house, with its cosy fire, the artwork and photos on the walls, and the spacious kitchen that had everything we needed. We didn’t want to leave!

Great Location

The cottage, the views, the passing parade of animal and bird life made our stay a very interesting and satisfying experience. The proximity to the Fig Tree Restaurant was an added bonus for us. The cottage has great character balanced with modern facilities. We would not hesitate in booking again!
