The House on Back Beach Farm Stay
A modernised 1890s, feature-filled farmhouse with direct access to the magnificent Back Beach, surf and fishing beach. Peaceful solitude, over 2 km (1.2 miles) to the nearest neighbour, but only 10 minutes’ drive to the shops, pub and restaurants of Streaky Bay. Perfect for a couple or family who want to get away to clean air and beautiful seascapes on the only Streaky Bay house with private access to Back Beach.

Bedrooms 1 and 3 have reverse cycle air-conditioning/heating. Bedrooms 2 and 4 have heating and all bedrooms have ceiling fans. A baby/toddler cot and high-chair are available on request.

The lounge room has satellite television (VAST) and third generation Apple TV. There is Wi-Fi throughout the house. The kitchen and lounge have reverse cycle air-conditioning/heating.
Between the lounge and kitchen is a large dining room with seating in front of a wood fire.
