We loved this place! Chris and Ros were delightful, helpful in everyway. The breakfasts and dinners were DELICIOUS. Unlike the other small inns in Australia that we stayed at during our trip, Ros was willing to cook up a hot breakfast. The cold breakfast offerings included sheep's milk cheese and sheep's milk yogurt with honey (all of the yogurt, cheese... more

This little gem of a B&B shouldn't be missed, The owners make for an informed and enjoyable stay. Kangaroo Island itself is just an amazingly unspoiled place and shouldn't be missed. After a day of "wandering" this is the place to stay ) more

We discovered Wanderers Rest through friends who raved about it, and stayed there in Feb, 2002. We loved it! Margaret and Robert couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. They provided us with flashlights to walk to the post office at night, and we counted at least 30 wallabies in a very short walk. The food was incredible, accomodations comfy,... more

We had an amazing overnight stay here at the start to our tour of Australia. The owners were fantastic and made us feel completely at home and the meal really was one of the best I've ever had. The owners went out of their way to accomodate us (such as providing torches so we could go for a 'wallaby' walk... more

After camping on beautiful Kangaroo Island for 3 nights (April 2002) my partner and I were truly looking forward to a relaxing night of "Old Fashioned Hospitality" at Wanderer's Rest. At 4pm when we went to check-in, our male host recieved a personal phone call. We waited upwards of 15 minutes before we indicated we were keen to complete our... more

The owner mentioned here has sold the Wanderers Rest in Sept 05. This situation should not occur now.
