About this property
Pear Tree Hollow Cottage
For couples who love nature, environmentally friendly living and privacy.
Pear Tree Hollow cottage is modern rustic styling and a little bit quirky!
Experience a Romantic Escape, an Artist's Retreat or Refresh in your own self-contained early settler cottage with cedar windows, old brick walls and flooring, timber ceilings and comfortable rustic styling.
Luxury King size bed (or two king singles by request), lots of pillows, and plenty of nooks to curl up with a book or friend. All instructions and assistance is provided in a folder in the living room.
We provide all your bedding, towels, continental breakfast provisions includes bread, milk, butter, porridge oats, muesli, pancake mix & pantry of condiments, jams and spreads in a full kitchen with fridge, oven/stove (no microwave or dishwasher).
Ground coffee and coffee maker, tea selections, and hot chocolate and fully equipped kitchen and dining facilities (including a coffee, bodum, tea and milk supplies.)
Books, magazines, games and DVDs are provided for your use in the cottage.
You bluetooth connect your smartphone to the Wonderbox sound system.
This is a non smoking property.
Extra firewood is provided in the box attached to the rear of the cottage just around the corner from the side door (if you need more just ask).
An outside barbeque is available outside your cottage for your use also.
The whole property is off the electricity grid and only uses alternative energy (solar and wind electricity generation), so please minimise the use of appliances that use a lot of power such as hairdryers and irons. (note: no microwave or dishwasher due to off-grid power conservation.)
We have good mobile phone coverage on the property so you will be able to use your own phone and mobile data.
Welcome to the joy of the slow life! Totally off-grid by choice and design, the property enjoys the alternative energy from the sun and breeze, and the warmth of a cosy combustion wood fireplace.
Nestled in a hollow on the ridge overlooking Inman Valley in the Central Southern Fleurieu Peninsula, you have full access to breathtaking panoramic views from your own front lawn/garden, comfy daybed and an outside BBQ.
Part of a larger 3 ha property and hobby farm with friendly alpacas, this is an amazing bird lover's paradise with dozen's of native bird species at home here as well as echidnas and occasional kangaroos.
Managed by owners Michelle & Peter, come and experience their special signature style and service. (This booking site requires a minimum 2 night booking - if you require a special one night only booking, please contact the owners for a quote.
Extras and Nearby
Pear Tree Hollow is also home to Leontynes Province (Upcycled Treasures), so you'll notice that some of the furniture items and decorations in the cottage are for sale, and other items for sale by appointment to inspect.
Quirky little cafes and shops are only 10 minutes drive, and the property is central to attractions including Deep Creek Conservation Park, access to the Heysen Trail, horse-riding on white sandy beaches, blue seas and dive sites at Normanville (15 mins) and Rapid Bay, golf courses at Lady Bay and Victor Harbor (20 mins) and 30 minutes to Kangaroo Island Ferry.

You'll be awed by the huge sweeping views from the property as we are, and the environmentally friendly approach to living here in modern rustic style.
