The Little Luxe Hideaway - Slow Living Escape

The Little Luxe Hideaway — Port Willunga
This gorgeous eco retreat is the perfect escape for couples, families, and friends wanting to experience the best of the Fleurieu Peninsula. Just a short walk to the famous Port Willunga Beach and dramatic coastal cliffs, you’ll be surrounded by great coffee, world-renowned food, and only minutes from the McLaren Vale wine region.
Recently renovated, the cottage features two queen bedrooms with crisp cotton linens, comfy mattresses, and built-ins for a restful night’s sleep after a day at the beach, walking the Willunga Basin Trail, or exploring vineyards.
A classic white weatherboard — think Nantucket style — this eco-gem runs on solar power with rainwater tanks, filtered drinking water, and an organic food forest where you’re welcome to pick seasonal fruit and vegetables.
Inside, cosy living spaces include an open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge with leather sofas, a wood heater for winter nights, and a reading nook. Gather around the dining table for fresh local produce, board games, or long chats. For chilled evenings, enjoy Netflix and high-speed Wi-Fi.
French doors open onto a large pergola overlooking the lush garden. Wander through veggie patches, lawns, and flower-lined paths alive with birdlife. The outdoor dining area is perfect for long lunches, while the fire pit (May–September) is made for red wine, storytelling, and marshmallows under the stars.
After lazy summer swims, rinse off in the outdoor shower scented with flowering frangipanis. Practical touches include a Miele front-loader, old-fashioned Hills Hoist, and all linens provided — even beach towels.
Throughout the cottage, you’ll find vintage pieces, antique art, and handmade details that make the space truly unique. Every corner has been styled with love and comfort in mind.
The Little Luxe Hideaway — eco, stylish, and welcoming. We can’t wait to host you.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a balcony or patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Perfect holiday escape

The cutest little cottage that had personality and charm and made us feel like we were on holidays. We really loved being able to light the fire each night and snuggle up on the comfy couches. The backyard was also a gorgeous space with lots of seating options, our one year loved exploring (and eating fresh cherry tomatoes from the veggie patch!) We enjoyed our stay and would definitely rebook if we were holidaying in the area again! Thank you to the lovely hosts.

Wonderful Willunga!

This delightful cottage is perfect for a holiday in Willunga. Everything has been provided for your comfort and convenience. Our Host Alex was amazing....so considerate and thoughtful....ensuring the cottage was pre-heated for our arrival, supplying complementary wine/nibblies and offering a later check-out if required! The cottage is beautifully furnished and the gardens provide a private haven for BBQ's and outside entertainment. We enjoyed our stay immensely....just wish it could have been longer!!

Neat as a pin

A neat and cozy place. Comfortable bedding and a lovely backyard outlook. Very quiet neighbourhood and handy location to nearby Port Willunga and Aldinga. Beach towels very handy as we ventured into the waters at Port Willunga! Would have loved to use the wood combustion heater if we had been staying for a longer visit.

Lovely cottage, clean and close to the beach!

Our stay was lovely, very clean and had all the amenities. Short walk from a great beach. A central location if you want to go to the city or see other beaches. The garden was also so nice, a great place to relax in the sun and read.

Wonderful little cottage in quiet neighborhood. Very clean with everything that you need provided. Our family (including fur kid) all enjoyed our stay, especially relaxing in the backyard. Would definitely recommend to others looking for a mini break away from the hustle and bustle. Alex was helpful and quick to respond to any queries.

Short holiday in Port Willunga

Our host kindly offered us an early arrival time. We thought the bed was clean and very comfortable the hot water was instant - excellent in fact. We are veteran B&B-ers and have plenty of stays to compare Bo Ho with. Our immediate perception - pretty garden - then inside lets the property down. The cottage is small and clean( yet grubby looking) - the attempt at “shabby chic “ is there but also “grubby chic” - tiny kitchen about 2x2 metres square - good fridge but awful stove - the plates covered in black-it. For the price per night it would seem a dishwasher would be appropriate. Down the narrow hall to bedrooms were a mish-mash of various floor tiles giving the overall grubby impression. New bathroom and toilet were appreciated. Breakfast supplies ( basis) a few nibbles were really good. Overall we would rate this property as a 3 star rating. Michael & Patricia

Anniversary getaway

My husband and I spent our 9th wedding anniversary at Pt Willunga. As we were married in the McLaren Vale it's a bit of a tradition to stay and do wine tasting! We loved that we could bring our dog with us; the property is fully secure and a great location for beach walks. All the extra touches helped make the experience amazing - welcome hamper, pantry essentials, bathroom supplies, and cosy blankets!! Would definitely recommend 👍👍👍
