Here's our experience.
Communication & arrival:
We arrived in the rain (no undercover parking) to find the keys are locked in a box and we need a code. The owners welcome message had no reference to any code and when I reached out they told me to find it online .. the Yorke Peninsula isn't exactly known for it's blistering internet speeds so this was a bit frustrating.
The Place:
The house itself is cozy, no frills, we thought it was great. Needs some minor maintenance though. The hot water is leaking from behind the laundry tap. The decking in the lovely BBQ area needs to be replaced, it's breaking up and is a hazard. We noticed the beautiful peach tree in the backyard attracts mice. The trees by the driveway are overgrown and traumatized my innocent car mirror. All minor, but there's some safety concerns in there. The outdoor area is defs the highlight.
Location
Great. Couldn't be better. Beautiful even in cooler weather, very relaxing spot. The neighbour in the big house didn't relax however, he revved his machinery loudly and often on the public holiday weekend like a silly goose avoiding his wife. A good samaritan eventually asked him to stop.
Overall it's a nice quiet spot near a quiet beach, with Ardrossan right there.. it's great value.

Tiddy Widdy is a charming little sea side town perfect for rest and relaxation. We enjoyed our stay at the “love shack” ocean view from the front deck and plenty of space for everyone. Just a short stroll to the beach 😊

When we walked in house smelt.
If it wasn’t Xmas Eve ( having Xmas with family up there,)we would have left, but thought opening up house would have got rid of smell.
Day after we realised dead mouse smell and got worse.
We left 8.00, in morning as we both felt sick 😷 from stink.
Backyard very over grown, not good for any family with young children.

Not impressed
I don't generally leave a bad review but this place did not live up to its 4.7 rating. The entire place needs some serious maintenance and a good cleaning. The BBQ was filthy and was unable to be used which left us cooking inside in frypans which were so old that the food just stuck. Cups and glasses and some of the cutlery were dirty. The heater in the main bedroom just blew cold air and the hot water only allowed one person to shower before it ran cold. It was advertised as dog friendly with a secure yard but our small breed pooch managed to get under the house and then under the gates onto the street.
We would not recommend staying here until the owners spend some time fixing the place up.

Great little unpretentious shack with everything you need and nothing you don't. Very comfortable for a short or long stay, and great location in quiet street. We particularly appreciated the cleanliness of the accommodation and also the thought gone in to what is provided. Apart from linen there really wasn't anything else to bring. Beds are a bit firm for me personally, but many people wont care. Great stay and appreciated the opportunity to take a break in Tiddy Widdy beach.

The property felt very comfortable. We had a good and relaxing time away. We loved that the neat secure back yard was surprisingly large enough for our pet. We are definitely putting this towards the top of our list of places to stay on the Peninsula!
