Local Attractions 

Just over 1 hour's drive from Adelaide, situated in the historic precinct of Port Elliot, and close to many old buildings, Trafalgar House is a three-minute walk from beautiful and safe Horseshoe Bay, and from surfing at Boomer Beach. With shops, restaurants, cafes, a fantastic bakery, hotels, tennis courts, croquet and bowling green all within easy walking distance, and with an adjacent cliff walk and bicycle track, Trafalgar House is in the perfect holiday position. An added winter attraction is the whales and sea lions which frequent the area from June to September.

   

Port Elliot is a small township with a history going back to the days of sailing ships. The first railway in Australia, the Cockle Train, which runs between Victor Harbor and Goolwa, is within a minute from Trafalgar House. Ideal for families and for those wishing to be a short distance away from the bustle of larger places, Port Elliot is only a 10 minute drive to Victor Harbor with its many shops, restaurants, cinemas and walks to Granite Island. And it is only a little further to the historic river port of Goolwa.
