About this property

Talinga on the Bay, Penneshaw

This 3-bedroom house sleeps up to 6 people with 2 queen and 2 single beds.
The billiard table has always offered a great opportunity for bonding or socializing with family or friends. Talinga On The Bay features floor to ceiling glass doors with spectacular views overlooking the beach, the Sealink passenger and vehicle ferry and mainland. Air-con, private courtyard, poolroom, and gas BBQ. The house has been renovated over winter 2023 so now boasts a new kitchen, two new bathrooms and new walls and flooring in the bedrooms -so fresh and clean.
Kangaroo Island is fresh air, pristine beaches, dramatic scenery and thriving native wildlife. Small tours, cycling, horse riding, diving, farming, walking and fishing all adhere to the rules of eco-friendly treatment. Walk close to wildlife. Delight in the abundance of wildflowers.
At Seal Bay an experienced interpretive guide gives you an insight into the lives of Australian Sea lions. Flinders Chase Nat. Park is home to the Remarkable Rocks, Admirals Arch and the Rocky River information center - go back in time looking for fossils. Fur seals, koalas, platypus, glossy black cockatoos, cape barren geese and of course kangaroos will welcome you to the park and keep you entertained along the many walking trails - many leading to secluded, isolated beaches.
Imagine waking to the gentle lap of the waves spilling onto the clean sandy beach, a refreshing walk collecting shells - possibly a nautilus, watching entranced as a pod of dolphins leap and frolic out of the water chasing after a school of salmon. A short walk takes you up to shops, fine cafes and restaurants or along to Baudin Conservation Park to spot some of our endangered wildlife.
The experience is here for you to enjoy!!!

Ideal location

Myself and a work colleague stayed for 3 nights for work. Everything was clean and well set out. Very comfortable. We were working all day but nice to come back and relax at the end of the day. 2 bathrooms which is a plus. You can see the Sealink dock and leave. Didn't get to use the pool table in the end but maybe next time.

About the host

Hosted by Roslyn Willson

Host profile image
Our family has been farming at Penneshaw since 1870. The Hog Bay beach has been our local retreat to fish, swim, socialise and genuinely relax in a beautiful environment. We are privileged to be able to share this wonderful experience to others with our beach house.

Why they chose this property

Talinga Tce is a safe, quiet cul de sac without flow through traffic. It provides easy access to the beach (150m) with cafes, IGA, shops, oval, tennis courts, play ground and skate park at the end of the street (200-300m). How convenient is that! The sculpture trail (with Tamar wallabies) is only 50m away and longer walking trails with more wildlife can be found in Baudin conservation park, 2km. There are pedestrian walkways around the town and onto our very special golf course with magnificent flowering gums trees. Grab your clubs and have a hit.

What makes this property unique

Recently renovated with new kitchen, bathrooms, laundry and flooring in the bedrooms. Plenty of space to find your own relaxation hideaway. Family friendly games or billiard competition. Awesome views and the best value for money in Penneshaw.
