“Wedgetaildown was a little haven of peace and comfort and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thsnk you Peter and Betty.”
+Peter and Betty were the epitome of welcoming hosts - very friendly and helpful - which made our stay all the more enjoyable. Loved the provision of home-made bread and breakfast basket, along with a lovely bottle of wine.
−Due to its secluded location (which we loved) and not wanting to venture out on the roads after dark in case we encountered the wildlife, perhaps a small oven or microwave to heat up meals would work?

“A genuine bush retreat without having to rough it.”
+What a fantastic spot to come home to at the end of an amazing day taking in the sights and sounds of Kangaroo Island. Bright and spacious with great bushland views and a very comfy bed! Wedgetaildown was exactly what we were looking for. Betty and Peter were wonderful hosts.

“Wedgetaildown is a spot of an unmatched combination of wildlife experiences, solitude and beauty.”
+Wedgetaildown is an extraordinary destination. The accommodation may be the best VRBO/AirBnB we have ever stayed in. It is a perfect size for one or two people. The unit is lovely inside, with very comfortable furniture and beautiful artwork, and with huge windows looking out over the wild property. The unit is perfectly appointed and supplied. Although it attached to the main house, you wouldn't know it as the rammed-earth walls prevent any noise transmission, as well as keeping the room cool in summer. We found the kitchen to be well designed, and it had everything that we could want, including a delicious basket of breakfast food. The shower was delightful, and there was a washing machine, which came in very handy!
−We did not like that we had to leave. We could have happily stayed for weeks.

“Stay was just perfect for our needs and property exceeded expectations.”
+Property was in a great location, centrally located for everything we wanted to experience whilst on Kangaroo Island. The accommodation was spacious, stylishly furnished and spotlessly clean. Facilities and amenities were very thoughtfully considered - we wanted for nothing. We saw many kangaroos and echidna from the accommodation window - wildlife heaven! Would highly recommend and if we are fortunate enough to return to Kangaroo Island, we would 100% stay there again.
