As featured in Fleurieu Living Magazine, Soldier Settler is a beloved original farmhouse set on the iconic Eleanor Downs merino sheep and cattle property on Kangaroo Island.
Privately positioned within 1,500 hectares, it offers sweeping rural views, abundant wildlife at your doorstep, and the rare chance to experience authentic farm life in comfort. Explore by day, then unwind by the fire with a glass of local wine.
A genuine and unforgettable Kangaroo Island escape.

The space
Solider Settler is a 4 bedroom farm cottage, decorated in a modern farm style. You will be able to sink into luxurious Sheridan linen and towels.

The country farmhouse dinner table seats 10 guests and you will have a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need.

Fire wood and kindling for your use during the cooler months.

On the deck you can cook yourself a snag on the gas BBQ and sit outside on the outdoor dining table or by the outdoor fire.

Indulge on one of our breakfast or picnic hampers full of local ingredients. Enjoy at one of many picturesque locations on our farm or out on adventures to some of our local hide aways. Please message for more information.

There is a picnic basket you can take on your day trips or just relax and stay at home with the board games, books, toys, wifi and Netflix.

If you are a plane enthusiast why not fly yourself in and hire the car available exclusively for guests.

The purest of rain water for drinking and showering is used in Soldier Settler.

Children are welcome and will have a wonderful time enjoying so much space.

Sorry no pets due to the wildlife and livestock on the farm.

Guest access
Guests are welcome to walk in the paddocks and visit the creeks. It's best to stick to the lane ways and always leave the gates as you find them because stock will be in most of the paddocks.

Other things to note
Be careful of the electric fences and the dams. This is a home on a farm and in the Australian country. If you do not like peace and quiet, friendly critters about the place and sometimes noisy possums then Soldier Settler is not for you. Stay in the city amongst the concrete!
