Wayfarers Cottage is one of the earliest homes in Goolwa, built around 1870. Centrally located in the "Little Scotland" precinct, it's a short drive to the beach and walking distance to Goolwa Wharf, restaurants, hotels and Goolwa shopping centre. It has modern amenities such as air conditioning, NBN and TV streaming services. You can also relax in front of the fireplace, have a bath to unwind, or watch the stars in the private courtyard.
I’m a 30 something musician that has travelled the world. I love meeting new people and experiencing new cultures. Through my travels I’ve found that most people are genuine and are very hospitable. I’ve always travelled with a great deal of respect for the country and the country’s customs. I speak Spanish and English and look forward to my next adventure.
Located in Little Scotland, you can walk to the Murray River and the Goolwa Wharf, and a 5 min drive to Goolwa Beach. There are local wineries nearby and the house is centrally located in Goolwa.
