25.01.2022 Paul from On Eyre stayed with us last week and captured this breathtaking sunset from our beach. There is no place like home. Eyre Peninsula #WelcomeBackSA #seeaustralia #agreatstatetobein

25.01.2022 Let the school holidays begin! #WelcomeBackSA

24.01.2022 It was great to welcome South Aussie with Cosi here this week and as you can see he was pretty impressed! Bookings are coming in, and things are looking up! The Pioneer Bungalow sleeps 12 (not 20), and we have two cabins that sleep 4 and 6 people. So indeed, we happily accommodate groups of up to 22 people and also have unlimited bush camping. Head to our website to find out how we are keeping you safe and to check availability. We hope to see you in our backyard very soon!... www.coodliepark.com.au #WelcomeBackSA Eyre Peninsula Australias Seafood Frontier

24.01.2022 Coodlie Park Farm Retreat is open and waiting for you to visit, along with places like Mikkira Station home to many wild #koalas. Many parts of Australia.com are unaffected by fires and its business as usual. We urge people to continue to support our small towns and businesses whose livelihoods rely on tourism. There are still pristine, turquoise beaches, dolphins and sea lions to swim with, wildlife to meet in the wild, and tours that will take you to places rarely visit...ed by the public. There are unique and delicious foods and wines to taste. Please share this information far and wide so people continue to visit Eyre Peninsula and South Australia for their holidays. If you are planning an overseas trip this year, please dont let this situation deter you, let it inspire you to visit us because that is what #Australia needs to get us back on our feet. The heartbreak we are feeling right now is simply beyond words. With fires continuing to burn in some parts of Australia, we are looking to our friends, industry peers and past customers for help, especially those abroad. Our thoughts are with all the people affected by the fires around the country, all the heroes on the front lines fighting the fires, rescuing and caring for injured wildlife and assisting people who have lost everything. With so many organisations fundraising, it can be overwhelming, so we chose to feature these two places to donate to assist Australian firefighters and wildlife through the bushfire crisis: You can support our volunteer firefighters, and the families of firefighters who have passed, at CFS Foundation. And please support the wildlife emergency rescue, rehabilitation, restoration and conservation efforts at Hanson Bay Wildlife Sanctuary - Kangaroo Island, right here in our backyard. Thank you to everyone who has donated so far - we are all grateful for your support and appreciate your love. We still have a long fire season ahead and our fireys and animals need us as much as we need them.

24.01.2022 Thanks for visiting us, Twice as Nice Gallery Cafe! And thanks for sharing the lovely photos especially of your excellent painting inspired by our bucket showers

23.01.2022 Some more nice photos from our recent guests :)

23.01.2022 When we say "sleeping under the stars", we mean it! We have 25 swag huts, nestled in the bush of our Eco-Campground, perfect for your stargazing pleasure. South Australia South Aussie with Cosi #seeaustralia Eyre Peninsula Australias Seafood Frontier Ecotourism Australia

22.01.2022 Making the best of a bad situation. After 20 years, Jo finally has her front garden. Winning!

21.01.2022 We are grateful to be having our busiest weekend ever at Coodlie Park thanks to fantastic South Aussies getting out and exploring their own backyards. We still have some sweet little spots available and ready for some more happy campers to roll in!

21.01.2022 Cosi couldnt resist giving this pup a treat, even though probably not encouraging the best table manners! We are pet friendly after all! South Aussie with Cosi Eyre Peninsula Australias Seafood Frontier #petfriendly

19.01.2022 Thanks Rhys Kelsh and the Tasman Football Club for having their end of year windup at Coodlie Park Farm Retreat. A great weekend, great guys and a lot of fun. The shuttle into the Port Kenny Hotel allowed the guys to make sure they were fed and hydrated! Thanks again guys and we hope to see you next year!

19.01.2022 One of our favourite things to do, here, in our backyard, is to go swimming with sea lions. If youre up for a swim with these gorgeous puppy dogs of the sea and going on the ultimate road trip, make sure you enter the Nullarbor Traveller by Australian Wildlife Adventures giveaway! See the comments for the link ;) Travellers to the Eyre Peninsulas wild west will tell you it is uncrowded, untouched and unbelievable. With natural landmarks such as the stunning Murphys Hays...tacks and Talia Caves nearby, you can also hop in for a dip with wild Australian sea lions and dolphins just down the road at Baird Bay!

14.01.2022 We love a good trip report and were stoked to read this bit: Highlights were staying at Coodlie Park and the seal dive at Baird Bay (this is awesome and a must if youre in the area). We then hit the Nullarbor and made our way to the WA south coast. Thanks, Superdad, for bringing your family to stay at our little piece of paradise on the Eyre Peninsula. Were so glad you enjoyed your stay!... https://4x4earth.com/forum/index.php #campingsouthaustralia #eyrepeninsula #southaustralia #familyholidays

Our guests tell us they love rolling out their swag in one of these little beauties! #swaghut #swagcamp #swag #swagcamping #ecotourism #ecotourismaustralia #bushcamp #outback #campinglife #campingaustralia #campingsouthaustralia #ecoadventure #carbonneutral #responsibletravel #sustainabletravel #ecotravel #eyrepeninsula #seesouthaustralia #seeaustralia

Look after yourselves and each other.... Hassie & Jo

02.01.2022 Just up the road from Coodlie Park, you will find the tiny coastal town of Elliston. On the shores of spectacular Waterloo Bay, Elliston is known for its rugged, scenic coastline and as a great place for fishing, swimming, surfing and bushwalking. Be sure to spend some time here on your next visit, once life returns to normal. If you have been, why not share some of your photos here!

02.01.2022 Its all about scale at Sceale Bay When photographer Chris Bock got above this little patch of Eyre Peninsula paradise, he also got himself a pretty big dose of coastal perfection! Located just south of Streaky Bay, this is a land of endless sandy #beaches, countless surf spots and a spectacular and rugged #coastline literally teeming with fresh seafood. Nearby attractions include the incredible Murphys Haystacks, Talia Caves, and Yanerbie where surfing some of the big...gest, coolest sand dunes is practically a rite-of-passage. If youre keen to hang ten in some of the most pristine waters on the planet, drop a line to Sceale Bay Surf School, before resting your head with the wombats (and your own private #beach) at Coodlie Park Farm Retreat down the road! South Australia Location: 50-minute flight to Port Lincoln, South Australia from #Adelaide in #SouthAustralia, then a 3-hour drive to #StreakyBay. #SeeSouthAustralia #EyrePeninsula #SeeAustralia #Australia

01.01.2022 ONE FOR THE DUTCHIES Our 25th tourism intern from Breda University in The Netherlands has just left, and for the first time in 13 years, we dont have another coming to take her place! Sometimes we have to agonise over several applicants. Is it the end of an era? We hope not! Was it the pre-interview requirements for entry - stroopwafels and pepernoten? Surely not! The "Dutchies" as they are affectionately known, have been a huge part of family life at Coodlie Park for 13 ye...ars. For those that have stayed, you know how important you have been. Not only for the work you did at Coodlie Park and Australian Wildlife Adventures, but every one of you left us with happy memories and became an important part of our lives. Congratulations to those of you who discovered the carrot trees, managed to beat me in Sequence and got on top of the office work. Good luck! Thanks for sharing my half-eaten lollies and looking after Maggie and Mia. There are far too many amazing times to mention, and wed love you all to share a photo and reminisce about your most memorable story. Who knows, maybe it will help us attract Dutchie #26 this September. We hoped you enjoyed being a part of our united nations evening meal every night with whoever else pops in. Can you imagine how hard it will be for me to cook for only two people? To all those that have shared our house and our life Jo and I thank you so much for being a part of our family! We hope life is excellent and you are happy doing something you love. Much Love Hassie & Jo
