Wake up to sweeping coastal vistas stretching from The Bluff to the Murray Mouth and Coorong. Watch majestic whales glide past right from your doorstep during the season.
The Space:
Quality beachfront holiday home with 1.5 bathrooms including corner spa for a chance to completely unwind. Open plan kitchen, meals and living- all with sea views. RC AC split. Large balcony and huge fully fenced backyard. Single carport with access through to the rear of the property- Perfect for the boat or trailer. Close proximity to the bike track extending from Victor Harbor through to Goolwa. Walk to Main Street to Pipis cafe, the bakery or the Middleton Tavern.
If you’re planning a visit to Middleton and want the best chance of seeing whales, aim for June to September (or perhaps up to October) for prime sightings. Early May to early June may also have you in time, though slightly less predictably.

Spectacular views from every window
5 stars for location, I could see the kids boogie boarding from the comfy lounge on the front terrace
We had a one week family holiday and everything about this property was ideal. The layout of the property was perfect allowing us all to be together and having enough room for a little privacy when needed. We rebooked two days later.
A perfect stay. Accurate and timely communications with the host, easy check in and the home was very clean and comfortable. Great location and panoramic views of the beach and ocean. Overall, a wonderful experience
