Bed and Breakfast accommodation in the heart of the beautiful south coast of
the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia. This award winning, authentic
19th-century guesthouse combines modern comfort with the opportunity to
experience generous, comfortable and peaceful hospitality.
Trafalgar House is situated within the historic precinct of Port Elliot, just a
three-minute walk from the beautiful and safe Horseshoe Bay or the surf at
Boomer Beach. Close to the renowned Flying Fish and Stranded restaurants, and
with hotels, tennis courts, and bowling greens within easy walking distance. A
clifftop walk, and bicycle trails are adjacent to the property. Trafalgar House
is in the perfect holiday position for the wine, water and wildlife attractions
of the Fleurieu Peninsula. An excellent stopover for a visit to Kangaroo
Island, but try to stay two days to enjoy the beautiful coastline and nearby
attractions.
The bluestone slate Victorian villa was extensively and faithfully restored in
the mid-1990s with rich Victorian paint colours, tasteful wallpaper borders,
original Baltic pine floors and doors, high ceilings with central ceiling
roses, some match wood ceilings and stained glass. Antique furnishings and
trinkets complete the experience.
A cottage garden at the front and rear is overflowing with iceberg roses,
lavender and a range of other plants. Garden furniture and a BBQ are available
for guest use.

Testimonials
"We thought outside the square, rolled the dice and landed at Trafalgar on the
Strand, where we were treated like Kings in a venue befitting the Queen. It was
as if we had stepped back in time, as English as Yorkshire pudding. We were
amused, entertained and charmed . We give it the royal seal of approval"
