The Little Blue Shack

We are so excited to share with you, our Little Blue Shack on North Beach. Generations of our family have grown up, holidaying on the beautiful North Beach, we have so many special memories; it really is the perfect family holiday destination.

The Little Blue Shack has everything you need for a wonderful family holiday. It really is the perfect blend of old shack holiday vibe with all the modern comforts of home.

The location is just perfect, it really is a hidden gem. Perched above the dunes the shack has spectacular sea views spanning over the entire North Beach. The crystal clear water is oh so close and easily accessible; just a short stroll down the front steps of the shack and through the dunes and you will find yourselves on the sand. North Beach is a great swimming beach and is perfect for young children. The sand is long and flat to enjoy long morning walks; the shallow rock pools just in front of the shack are the perfect place to explore and uncover baby mud crabs. North Beach is also one of the few SA beaches you can actually drive your car on and set up for the day.

The activities really are endless.....but even more so, it is just the perfect place to kick of your shoes, soak up the sunshine, relax and just breathe in the fresh ocean air.

Now, you will be pleasantly surprised how big this shack really is; comfortably sleeping up to 6 people. Bedroom 1 has a queen bed with ocean views; bedroom 2 is a huge room boasting 1 x queen and a single bunk bed.

All rooms have split system air-conditioning. Quilts and pillows supplied, EXCLUDES SHEETS AND TOWELS.

The family bathroom has a shower, new vanity and toilet. There is a new external laundry, with a washing machine and dryer.

The main living and kitchen is enormous and well equipped. There is a second living area with a comfy sofa bed. In winter time enjoy the slow combustion heater.

The property is fully fenced, there is plenty of room in the rear garden for a BBQ, kids to play and room for the boat and fish cleaning. The new outdoor shower and foot tap is perfect for rinsing off the salt and sun. Directly behind the property is a great reserve with new playground equipment, basketball, tennis and fitness facilities. The park is well maintained with plenty of grass and open spaces for the kids to play.

The shack is equipped with everything you need for a true beach holiday. Inside you will find family games, magazines, books and jig saw puzzles. Outside you will find 2 kayaks, life jackets, boogie boards, outdoor games and sporting equipment.

The shack has a modern, mid century, coastal decor which is timeless and fun.

The shack is within a short drive to the Wallaroo Township which boasts several delicious cafes and a very popular gin distillery. There are also plenty of great local pubs that offer true country hospitality.

This little treasure is all within a short 1.5 hour drive from Adelaide, how lucky are we....and you...go on, check it out - you won't regret it.

The Little Blue Shack Is Perfect
We just spent 3 nights at this beautiful place & didn't want to leave. It is beautifully decorated & maintained & absolutely spotless. We've stayed in many Stayz accommodations over the last 15 years, and this is up there with the best of them. With the beautiful weather that we had, the front deck was our go to for all of our meals. The front awnings were great to pull down when needed, while still giving you beautiful views. Nothing's more relaxing than eating out there, enjoying a few drinks & watching the sun go down & the beautiful sunsets. It's such a beautiful, peaceful, relaxing place to stay. Kylie was really wonderful to deal with, the information for our stay came on time & it was a real hassle free experience. We'll definitely come back again.

Simply stunning!
I’m pretty fussy about where I stay, but I walked in, did one quick lap and immediately booked another trip before I even unpacked the car. We had two days of howling winds so couldn’t spend as much time outside as we would have liked - but honestly, it didn’t matter. Inside was equally as magical. Super impressed with the cleanliness, bed was comfy, styling gorgeous, location unparalleled. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely home. We’re very grateful. x

A lovely little getaway
The Little Blue Shack is modern yet cosy, spacious and beautifully decked out. The verandah has a lovely outlook to the ocean. It was perfect for three teenagers and myself. The kayaks were appreciated too. :)

Great View
A really nice panoramic view of the ocean from the open plan living, kitchen, dining. The shack is positioned behind and above other homes that are on the esplanade so the view is reasonably uninterrupted. Walk down the garden steps as pictured in the photos, along the back of a neighbour’s shed, a few meters along the road and you are at the very cute little dune path to the beach. Well stocked with kitchen items (even a slow cooker), board games, magazines, beach toys. The new quaint outhouse laundry has a second toilet which is a bonus. Beds reasonably comfortable, plenty of hot water (we were 3 adults), huge tv, nicely decorated. Great for both summer or winter holidays.

Lovely shack with views to match
The little blue shack was a perfect winter getaway for us all. We had lovely weather for winter beach walks and stunning sunsets to end our days. The table outside was perfect for afternoon drinks watching the sun go down each day. The bedrooms nice and spacious as was the lounge & dining areas. Lovely location, easy to find and all that we needed to enjoy the week at North Beach.
