Locality
Port Hughes is a popular tourist destination, with attractions including a Greg Norman designed links style golf course (9 holes presently), the beautiful beach of Cape Elizabeth (approx 2.5 miles long stretch of beautiful soft sand), the ever popular jetty, NEW boat ramp, tavern and general store.
The beach is regarded safe for swimming as it's protected by Cape Elizabeth with no sudden drop off's. This together with the beautiful scenery and local attractions draws many families on vacation from Adelaide and surrounding areas, generally no more than 2 hours’ drive.
Fishing is a very popular pastime in the area with the choice of many "hot spots" in and around Port Hughes and Moonta Bay, whether off the beach or jetty for whiting, flathead, squid or tommies or further out to sea for our famous King George Whiting. If you don't have your own boat, there are plenty of local charters available for hire.
The Port Hughes general store offers a bit of everything. Less than five minutes away, this is a great place to go for basic provisions, fishing supplies as well as a servo. The cafe in the General Store is also excellent for a quick lunch, be warned, hot chips are addictive!
The local tavern offers excellent value for money pub meals with a front bar with the TAB which also doubles as a bottle shop. Port Hughes also has a very popular bistro "The Deck" within The Dunes complex, overlooking stunning Cape Elizabeth and the Greg Norman designed golf course.
The house is only 5 minutes away from Moonta which has a large supermarket Drakes, banking, newsagents, several pubs and local shops, including some excellent antiques shops. Kadina, a large bustling town, is the principal township of the "Copper Coast" area and is only 20 minutes’ drive away.
Port Hughes is well placed on the Yorke Peninsula for visiting its many attractions including stunning Marion Bay and Innes National Park.
Another great family stay in Port Hughes. House is lovely and spacious with everything you could need. Amazing views from the balcony to enjoy a wine at the end of a beach day. Sadly, the BBQ was not cleaned for the second year in a row, not sure if this was previous tenants or not but we couldn't use it. One of the downstairs bedrooms could use a new bed/mattress too. We will be back! Thank you Matthew & Joanna
We had a lovely long weekend stay with a group of friends. Very friendly owner. Golf course within walking distance was a bonus, the house is lovely however a little TLC required on the property & would suggest updating the bed linen.
i would give the house and location 4.5 out of 5
This is the second time we have stayed and it’s just perfect! No faults at all ?
Well located and spacious house.
We had a lovely time at Matt’s place. He was very responsive to messages and really seems guest focused. We really liked the house and location. Lots of space and ideal for a large family. The only negative is that the property wasn’t well cleaned when we arrived. But Matt was very apologetic and hopefully that was a one off.
Amazing home, close to everything you need, well maintained, owners are very helpful and responsive. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a get away
It is a well thought out and set out holiday house. We had a small glitch when we got there. We had paid for linen service and linen had not been provided but property owners responded straight away to my email and phone call and rectified. From then on we enjoyed our stay. Would love to stay again but longer.
We had a great time again! The house is absolutely perfect for what we need! Thank you!
Property poorly maintained and not very clean, considering the nightly rate
