Great location. Great space

Loved how the house opened up to the deck! And loved the view from the deck of the ocean, the dolphins and the kangaroos. The house was comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. Penneshaw beach was my favourite beach, there was a well stocked grocery store in town and we loved the vibe at the pub.

Absolutely beautiful property perfectly positioned in Penneshaw. We spent 3 lovely days and wished that it could have been more. The house has everything that you might need and is very comfortable after a day exploring the island. I can’t recommend it enough!!

Peaceful wilderness get away

The property is beautiful and light filled with a view which is unmatched! Regular wildlife encounters including kangaroos, dolphins and wallabies from the deck. Well stocked and well maintained facilities made for a fantastic week away

Peace & wildlife with views

Fantastic location with great views. We saw dolphins from balcony, plus wallabies and kangaroos out the back. Ideal for 2 couples. We had friends from UK visiting for my husband's 70th birthday and the house offered a great base for us to show them around KI. Also close to the ferry for the early morning start back to the mainland!

Wonderful Place to Stay

We loved the location of Ashendens on the hilltop overlooking the beautiful turquoise waters of Penneshaw. The dolphins were regular visitors and we enjoyed watching them from the deck. My son swam peacefully with them on several occasions. The house has great facilities and the open plan kitchen, dining and lounge room is open and spacious, taking advantage of the amazing views of the ocean and mainland. The large deck was also a favourite place to enjoy the scenery and wildlife (many wallabies!). Helen, the host was very good at communicating promptly and providing information about the house.

Great spot to stay when visiting Peneshaw

We stayed at Ashendens for last 3 nights of our KI holiday. Great spot to visit the Peneshaw end of the island! Fortunately Ashendens had lots of windows as last two days were too wet to utilise the deck! From those windows we saw the dolphins playing and the Sealink activity. Out the back of property we saw a lot of wallabies. Thankyou to Helen for sharing you holiday home with KI visitors.

Where dolphins come to rest, must be the perfect spot for a beach house. We loved the house- need to come back with a bigger group of friends to make the most of it!
