Delightful!
A group of friends and I had a wonderful stay at the cottage. It was very spacious, well appointed, clean and quiet. We had everything we needed to cook a meal and were also very close to walk down to The Star Of Greece for dinner. The beach was also only a short walk and McLaren vale was an easy Uber ride away. Our hosts were also excellent and offered a late check out without us having to request this. I would definitely recommend for groups of friends or families looking for a comfort stay in Port Willunga.

Perfect winter weekend
We had an amazing weekend staying at Shell Cottage. It was so beautifully decorated and there was not one thing that was overlooked. Staying on a wet, windy winters weekend, the fireplace was a perfect way to stay warm indoors. It felt comfortable, cozy and like a home away from home. I’d give 10 stars if I could!
