Family weekend away
Staying at Tulka Homestead was great. It is often difficult to find suitable places that can accommodate multiple adult groups but Tulka was perfect. It is a beautiful home with a great view over the ocean.

Relaxed stay
We (a group of 5 friends) had a great relaxed stay at Tulka House. The location is beautiful, the home is well appointed and beautifully finished. Close to Pt Lincoln for meals out and shopping, but far enough away for the quiet and serenity of a seaside getaway. Will definitely book again if we are over that way.

Amazing Property.
The attention to detail is amazing, all the pamperings of a modern hotel but it doesn’t feel like a hotel at all. This is the perfect match of builders, gardeners and interior designers all working together to deliver an experience you will never forget.

Wonderful stay
We stayed for five days with two other couples and children and had a wonderful time. The property is truly luxurious, beautifully presented and with plenty of room. Fire pits outside and a pizza oven for entertaining.
Located well, it is a short drive to some amazing parks and beaches. Ten minutes to the shops in Port Lincoln and only 40 minutes to Coffin Bay. A beautiful place that will stay in your memories. Highly recommended.

Unforgettable and luxurious experience
We felt at home right from the first moment we entered. The house was comfortably and thoughtfully appointed, set in beautiful and serene Tulka right on the water’s edge. You could just sit there with a book and dream the days away never tiring of the view, but alas so much to do! The house was spotless, and the facilities provided worked seamlessly. Mark and Jane clearly put in every effort to ensure guests have a memorable stay.

Absolutely stunning property
Tulka is a spectacular unique property at a stunning location. Mark and Jane were wonderful hosts who communicated generously with me before and during our stay. Nothing was too big an ask. I would highly recommend anyone to stay or host an event there.
