Four bedroom house on 240 acres of beautiful country, close to stunning beaches
Off grid, rammed earth house set on 240 acres of rolling country. Beautiful views from the house-or you can take a peaceful walk along the creek & enjoy getting close to the local flora & wildlife. The property is located only a five minute drive to the stunning Western river beach or ten minutes to the equally stunning Snellings beach. The house has a large central open plan area with well equipped kitchen, spacious dining and comfortable lounge. Four large bedrooms sleep up to eight people in two queen beds & four king single beds. Two bathrooms (one suitable for disabled access) & laundry with washer/dryer. The house is on rainwater so we would ask guests to be careful with water.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful acreage home. The property was peaceful, spacious, and perfect for a relaxing holiday. The house was spotless, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We especially loved waking up to the quiet surroundings and enjoying the outdoor space, it truly felt like a home away from home.A big thank you to our host for being so welcoming and attentive. Communication was easy and prompt, and they went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable. We really appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the property.Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a serene and enjoyable getaway. We’d definitely love to return!
The property was lovely and very peaceful and relaxing.Everything was very well presented and well stocked with towels and cutlery and crockery.The only downside was we had very patchy internet the whole time.
Loved our stay in this house. Plenty of room for our extended family. Beautiful outlook with lots of wildlife to watch.The separate sleeping areas were great and the kitchen had everything we needed.
The listing does not do it justice - even better than expected. Beautiful property, well appointed, stunning location and so much wildlife. Yabbie catching was fun, device detox was what we all needed for family games and fun and perfect central location to explore the whole island. Secluded beach at the end of the road was a lovely surprise too.
A beautiful secluded property that was well equipped for our two families. A great layout with plenty of space. Enjoyed exploring the property and nearby beaches
The property is so well thought out. Beautiful finishes & we can tell it was built with alot of love. Had all the amenities we needed. Very clean & comfortable. Wish we had more time to stay! Thank you for your hospitality.
Fantastic property in a secluded part of KI with loads of wildlife.Very well presented.Had a delightful stay.Directions to the property were spot-on, but did not include the keybox code - we had to phone the property owner and it was quite late at night, but sorted immediately.One other suggestion would be to have a corkscrew

Hi Mervyn
Glad you enjoyed the stay, we love the place and really appreciate hearing that folk have had a good time there.
You must have missed reading it, but the location of the keybox and the access code are the third dot point in the information I sent you.....glad you called, we leave the number so any problems are fixed asap!
Many thanks for the corkscrew suggestion, we will get one.
Regards,

Wow! What a hidden gem. We enjoyed 7 days of peace and seclusion. The house is in a fantastic location with beautiful beaches nearby. The house was well presented with amazing views from inside. Very clean and very spacious. Kids/adults enjoyed exploring the block and creek along with catching yabbies in the dam. Highly recommend. Thankyou for providing such a lovely house for us to stay in.
The rammed earth house is beautifully presented with everything you could want. Wish we had a few more days to enjoy the peace and tranquillity. Sitting in the evening watching all the wildlife from the back verandah was a treat.
I was impressed with the 5 star reviews on this property when I booked and let me say, they were 100% accurate. The house is perfect with all the amenities you will need. Plenty of space in all rooms so you never feel like 8 people are living on top of each other. Leanne was wonderful to liaise with and will definitely stay here again.
Beautiful house in a beautiful location! We had the best time. The added additions of torches and nets were fantastic. Highly recommended. We'll be back 😁
Leanne's property was just perfect - really clean, had everything we needed - and super comfortable beds! We saw two echidnas (and for one of my students it was their first echidna sighting which was very exciting!) and had a cool night walk around the native bush part of the property. Leanne was always really quick to respond to messages and very accommodating. Such a lovely place to stay and easy to get anywhere on KI from.
The house was everything we had hoped for. The location is perfect, super close to Western River Cove, Snelling Beach and Stokes Bay. The views, the flora and fauna around the house was spectacular! Leanne was an excellent host, she responded to messages promptly and all the info she provided was extremely clear. The house was big, clean, modern and very comfortable. We can’t wait to come back to Tamar Creek holiday house, and explore more of beautiful K.I
My family stayed at this property over the holidays and we were all blown away by the experience. The home is large and very comfortable but the property itself is the show stopper--the house sits atop a hill with views of the ocean in the distance and surrounded by acres of land with sheep, kangaroos, wallabees and we even spotted an echidna down by the creek. This was the highlight of our three week vacation in Australia--thanks for having us!!
