Summary: Our family has done a lot of travel and this property was the best, just the size makes it perfect for sharing. The owners have considered every need, beautiful house, best location with access to shops, restaurants, pub, beach. Also to be trusted with food condiments, spices, oil and essentials is so grown up... thankyou. And the cleaning products, so of course we cooked, cleaned, chilled out and really enjoyed this place. I even met the neighbour ! Thankyou Semaphore home owners.

Summary: Everything was perfect for a family group coming to Adelaide for a wedding. The house was spacious, extremely well equipped and central to everything. We had a bit of a problem with the lock box but other than that highly recommend.

Summary: This property was worth every cent. Great location and everything we needed was at our finger tips.Only a few items we would change - Queen beds need to be at least King beds and don’t have any bed ends (door) . They were too short for my husband. On the front verandah some more comfy chairs and a little table would be great.Also some milk in the fridge on arrival would have been great to make a coffee. Other than that we loved our stay.

Summary: We are 5 friends aged between 50 and 60 and we stayed at this amazing house for 3 weeks from late November to middle of December. Communication from Carolyn was great, from my first enquiry about the house to our last day, just before leaving. This is a stunning, characterful house, full of charm and in a great location with an amazing view. It is also a home from home with all the home comforts of washing machine, dryer, dishwasher and a piano!! The beds are really comfy with plenty of bedding and extra duvets if you need them. We had plenty of room and mainly spent time in the back room but the living room is massive and we had a meal for 9 of us with fabulous views of the ocean. For our morning cuppa we sat out front watching the birds and Semaphore life pass by... so relaxing. You don't need a car because Semaphore Road is only a 5-10 min walk with everything you need including a supermarket, bottle shop, coffee shops, food outlets and bars. The nearest train stop is at Peterhead and is a 14 min walk. The trains are every 30 mins and cost only 2 dollars off peak!!! We absolutely love this house and have already booked to stay again. It was lovely to meet Carolyn and Pete and we can't wait to go back. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.
