Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
My Sister & The Sea is a 1950's weatherboard cottage transported from Sweden. Our family has fallen in love with this house and area, and are pleased to be able to continue the legacy of two very special sisters! Come and swim in front of shipwrecks, laze on the deck, do jigsaw puzzles, read on the day beds, immerse yourself in nature and explore Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park. Winters are ideal for spending time by the fire reading, drinking wine & napping in the French linen sheets...

The space
My Sister & The Sea is a three bedroom cottage with two queen size bedrooms and a twin single bedroom. There's a country farmhouse table, charming full size kitchen plus breakfast bar for perching. Cosy combustion fireplace by the daybeds. Outdoor dining on a large covered deck, sandpit for kids, fire pit for you and it leads to an exterior plywood clad chill space for reading, games and lounging. Rustic curated interiors just the way we like it.

Neighbourhood highlights

My Sister & The Sea is located in the township of Marion Bay on the Yorke Peninsula. Marion Bay is a small seaside town consisting of a tavern, bar and restaurant, and general store. Newspapers, bread and milk are not consistently available, so bring everything you need to give yourself the holiday you deserve. We are a short walk to many beautiful beaches. Feel like surfing, kayaking, fishing, paddling in calm waters or discovering your own private secluded beach? All this and more is why we have fallen in love with this place. Dhilba Guuranda-Innes National Park is a quick drive up the road and is a protected area of incredible beauty. A national park pass is included in your stay!

Brett and I live in Adelaide with our two children. We are passionate about sustainability, great design, spending time in nature and taking time to connect and slow down. Brett's childhood holidays were quintessential Aussie road trips to quaint country towns; Pia's involved visiting family overseas - sometimes in their Swedish summerhouses. We have fallen in love with this blend of our memories at My Sister & the Sea and hope you love it too!
