Phil Australia

I travelled to the Coorong with my son and we had a wonderful stay. We were welcomed by the friendly hosts and had a fresh loaf of bread, bottle of wine and warm fire blazing on arrival. The property was comfortable and neatly presented. We were looking for an opportunity to relax and unwind and the location did not disappoint, offering opportunities to appreciate the beautiful scenery, explore the local attractions and experience nature at it's best. We had such a great time that we decided to stay an extra night and would have stayed longer if we could. We left with a long list of things that we need to do on our next trip.

Allison Australia

Absolutely perfectly appointed. Comfortable, warm, dog could stay with us. Beautiful garden with lots of outdoor angles to view from. Fabulous.

Andrea Australia

The wood fire heater, the outdoor areas, clean and cosy settings..and the host Neil is being very helpful and thoughtful to us. We spent most our time in the house because it gets too comfy, would love to be back again!

Maggie Australia

A little gem of a place tucked away in very quiet peaceful location with friendly locals. Apartment was private,modern,clean and very comfortable with everything you need. Great personal touches like wine and freshly baked bread. Garden absolutely beautiful, peaceful and a cosy place to come home to after a day exploring the beautiful coroong.

Belinda Australia

April Australia

EVERYTHING BREAD WAS LOVELY WINE NICE, FIRE WAS HIGHLIGHT,GREAT LITTLE TOUCHES INCLUDING FLOWERS, BOOKS, GAMES AND ENTIRE SPACE WAS EXTREMELY CLEAN AND TIDY.

James Australia

This is truely a hidden gem. As soon as we walked in we felt totally relaxed. We were greeted by our friendly hosts and shown around the beautiful home. We were also greeted with a bottle of wine, freshly made homemade bread and a wood fire ready to light. Everything has been thought of here to make you feel welcome, cosy and at home. The attention to detail is amazing with all new modern furnishings and decor (throw rugs, usb ports modern tv, rain showerhead) it had it all. The native garden was beautiful to look our across and there were views of the water. Overall a great place to escape the rat race with a good book. Thank you Gabriele and Neil.

Diane Australia

very clean, and thoughtful touches including home baked fresh bread, wine and roaring fire to make it nice and cosy.

Julianna Australia

The accommodation was modern, the location was good and the homemade bread and wine was a nice touch.

Gabriele and Neil
Samphire is off-the-grid accommodation, two hours drive from Adelaide, 45 minutes from Tailem Bend and three hours drive from Mt Gambier via the Limestone Coast. Meningie is 10 minutes drive away, a town that has attractions and shops and eateries. Situated on the edge of the Coorong National Park, a unique natural environment of lagoons and sandhills, we offer a comfortable home-away-from-home where you can relax and recharge, or a convenient base for water activities or exploring the national park and region by foot or by car.  We only accept a single booking at a time. The guest suite is a comfortable and compact attached apartment. It is comprised of two bedrooms and features a kitchen for your use, or you can put the catering in our hands and have some, or all, of your meals cooked for you. ​ The guest suite has a private entrance, a garden and outdoor relaxation areas all dedicated for guest use. Smoking is not allowed in the house. Ashtrays are provided in the garden.
Your hosts are Neil and Gabriele. They enjoy outdoor activities (walking, running, sailing, canoeing) and travel in and out of Australia.
The neighbourhood is a small, unnamed settlement on Seven Mile Road, which overlooks the Coorong for much of its length. The nearest shopping is in Meningie, about ten minutes drive away. Meningie features hotels, a bakery, supermarket, butcher, service station and eateries, both licensed and unlicensed.
