About this property

.Beach getaway, pet friendly, coastal vibe

  • Located only one house back from The Esplanade, enjoy a relaxing beach getaway at The Salty Dog Beach house.
    The charming cottage nestled to the rear of the property sleeping 6. Complemented by a large fully fenced yard with established gardens, birdlife and carparking.
    There is plenty of outdoor space for kids and pets to play, while the three bedroom cottage is spacious and equipped to ensure you have everything you need to enjoy a relaxing holiday in this fantastic location.
    With the beach, playgrounds and cafe's within a few minutes walk you can leave the car keys behind. The Aldinga Beach shopping centre is only a few minutes drive away. You may like to head into neighboring towns such as McLaren Vale or Willunga for the day. Did we mention the beach is a few minutes walk? Or you could jump in the car and drive and park on the beach for the day.
    If your a bike rider you will love riding around Aldinga Beach. The walk along the Esplanade is wonderful. Having a vehicle will allow you to drive a little further and enjoy our wine region, Victor Harbor and other wonderful beaches.

My wife & I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Salty Dog Beach House and so did our pooch, being just a 3 minute walk to the beach was amazing. The The Salty Dog Beach House is a great place to base yourself from as its an easy drive to Wineries, Restaurants and Cafes, what a great place to take some time out and relax. Thank you,

Great for a get-away

The house was clean and cool when we arrived. A welcome relief from the hot weather outside. The home has decorations celebrating the loving nature of dogs and is equipped for a well-behaved pooch. We enjoyed a few lazy days here, venturing out for meals and relaxing in the beautiful front garden. Our dog was happy and calm, spending time in the shade outside.It was nice to know that when we came back sandy that there was a dog washing station available and a well secured yard space that we felt comfortable letting our dog explore with relaxed supervision.This property would be suitable for up to a group of four adults and two young children (and perhaps one or two relaxed dogs).

Excellent choice

Great choice we made for our 5 days stay, it is a really lovely home! It is set in a side street just a few meters away from the main road and 2 minutes to the beach where you can enjoy your morning walks with you dog along the beach or along the path. The house is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need, it has 2 king size comfortable beds that you don’t get to have at a lot of holiday rentals. The front yard is beautifully landscaped and makes it sitting out in the front yard so enjoying after a busy day watching our little dogs play. The host of the property was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. We will certainly choose The Salty dog Beach House again for our next holiday.
