Georgeous 1860's cottage for 2 people or up to 6.

Circa 1860's Polly's Bonnet Shop is a lovely romantic getaway. If romance isn't your thing, why not just come for a weekend away after a long hard week at work, or bring the family for a little getaway.

Come and share in a little piece of Moonta's history!

Walking distance to nearby shops, hotels & eateries. Take the Heritage Trail walk, it starts across the road in Queen's Park and Polly's is number 3 on the trail.

Only a 2 minute drive to the safe, sandy beaches of Moonta Bay.

Just a few blocks away is Apex Park (walking distance), great for BBQ's, kids playground with little kids bike track - complete with road signs etc. So bring the kids & their bikes and get out and about and enjoy what Moonta has to offer.

Take a step back in time & visit the many heritage activities in the area.

Perfect Short Stay
Characterful cottage in a scenic location close to cafes and shops. Lovely for a short break, the cottage has all the amenities you could need - comfy beds, well equipped kitchen, fabulous shower and spa and a bonnet for every occasion.

Home Away From Home
We love staying at Polly’s bonnet shop and we will stay again - there is one tiny detail which we will remember next time - we wanted to watch a DVD but there is no cable to connect the DVD player to the TV - next time we will bring an HDMI cable as the cable at the cottage is the wrong one. No biggie as we took board games with us 😁

Cute character cottage with an interesting history.
We booked last minute for school holidays as we had an international student staying with us. We needed to ensure we had separate rooms however didn’t want to go too big as there was only 3 of us. It was easy to do the booking, a short drive from Adelaide and was quite suited to our needs once we got in there. I would be happy to book again and have already been sharing our enjoyable experience with others.

Absolutely Amazing!
Polly’s Bonnet was such an amazing house and was just perfect to hold our Christmas Day family get together there. The home has history and the location could not have been better. A beautiful park across the road, awesome walking track that was dog friendly a couple a small blocks walk away and the Main Street with coffee shops, supermarket and anything else you’d want within a short stroll. The backyard was secure and perfect for our fur babies. A short drive to Port Hughes and Moonta Bay beaches. Highly recommend staying there. Loved our stay.

It is an 100 year old building, very worth for family looking for short term stay. The town is small and quiet, definitely worth to stay and recommand to friends.
