These comments are made without any liability whatsoever: We took the family to the rugged but beautiful west coast of Kangaroo Island and wanted a place that was close to the key sight-seeing places but secluded, comfortable and modern, could fit a family of 4 at a reasonable price. We found all of this staying at the 'rustic' Troubridge Lodge... More

We rented one of the lighthouse cottages at Cape du Couedic and some friends rented the cottage next door. They were really well equipped for families with plenty of space for everyone, comfy beds, lots of games etc - the only thing missing was a BBQ. The setting of the cottages is wonderrful - an easy walk to see the... More

overwhelming quiet except for the wind whistling round the chimneys. No ghosts noted in spite of references in the visitors book! Appreciate running water, fully functioning bathroom and a large fridge - with electricity! Plenty of history about but we had to push ourselves to get out there to "do" the history, it was so relaxing. Can recommend a two... More

Stayed in one of the Assistant light house keeper cottages (with the mice!) for 2 nights. Excellent accommodation, and plenty to keep one occupied. You must be self-sufficient although the Park shop does have some supplies. Weather can be cold and wild, even in winter but it's atmospheric. Highly recommended. More

The rennovated cottages are located on pristine coastline and were a great base for our KI holiday. The amenity was great and appropriate for the setting, no TV or phone reception and we brought everything in but tons of atmosphere just metres from wildlife and a wild and rugged coast More

Stayed three nights in the Parndana Lodge. Wonderful experience, my girlfriend and I loved the seclusion of the place, its proximity to other interesting sights within the National Park, and the large number of wallabies running around the place. Would definitely return, and would bring friends next time - the cottage has three ample bedrooms, a huge kitchen, and a... More

The lighthouse keepers cottage at Cape du Couedic is very well equipped, everything you'd hope for is there. A really worthwhile stay in such a beautiful, remote place. More

Stayed 4 nights in Parndana Lodge, loved it!. Stunning location; walked down to Admirals Arch each evening- loved the scenery, fur seals, Tammar wallabies right next to the Lodge etc. Remarkable Rocks truly remarkable! A photographer's paradise. Loved the "feel" of the cottages- beautiful stone buildings, heritage listed, gave a sense of the history and isolation. Rooms spacious, clean, furnished... More

We had 1 night at this Heritage Accommodation, and upon arrival, we panicked. Why? Because there was no telephone (only one phone in my lodge for emergency use only), no TV, no Wifi etc. We arrived late afternoon. After keying in the number combinations of the key press, we manage to get the key and unlock the house door. There... More

Cape du Couedic is on the south east corner of Kangaroo Island, home of seal colonies, koalas, platypus and much more. We stayed at the lightkeeper's cottage set below the lighthouse. There are three cottages which originally served the keeper and assistant keeper's families. All are available for reasonable rates and come complete with fully equipped kitchen (take you own...
