We take our responsibility to the environment seriously, and have taken the following actions to ensure our accommodation venues are as eco-friendly as possible.

Yorke Peninsula’s National Park

Wildflowers create rich colour when they blossom during spring and autumn. Coastal shrubland comes alive with Cockies Tongue, Common Fringe-myrtle, Coastal White Mallee and Wattle.

Explore the remains of the historic heritage-listed Inneston village where gypsum used to be mined. It has 12 houses, a restored post office building and the ruins of what were once the store, factory, bakery and stables. With Innes National Park Heritage Accommodation you can stay in one of five original miners lodges that have been renovated within the Inneston area. Norfolk, Gatehouse, Miners, Managers and Engineers Lodges are all available for overnight accommodation.

Walk the Thomson-Pfitzner Plaster Trail, enjoying coastal and island views. The trail takes you along the old railway line and has 16 interpretive signs that tell of the area's mining history.

Troubridge Island Conservation Park

Relax and get away from it all on a small remote island. For many, this is the ultimate adventure or romantic escape. This island oozes character and charm and leaves you with a rare sense of solitude.

Stay in the old lighthouse keepers cottage and by night fall asleep to the relaxing sound of crashing waves. By day, enjoy activities including swimming and fishing. Widlife includes little penguins and several species of terns. To protect the breeding colonies, access to Troubridge Island is by permit only or with Troubridge Island Charters.

Leven Beach Conservation Park

Experience one of the finest natural beach areas in South Australia. This park preserves vegetation vitally important in maintaining the stability of the dune system. See low cliffs, undulating sand dunes, bushwalking trails and scenic coastline. A popular activity is beach fishing, so make sure you bring your rods and bait. If you plan to stay overnight, nearby Burners Beach campground is the place to go.

Clinton Conservation Park

Don't forget your binoculars because this park is ideal for birdwatching. With 57 known bird species living in the park, you will be sure to see interesting bird life along the shoreline and in the mangroves.

Clinton Conservation Park was dedicated to protect a significant and undisturbed area of mangroves. It's a great place to take a break during your drive on Yorke Peninsula, and provides the perfect opportunity to see the samphire shrubland, mallee woodland and tidal estuaries that it protects.

Innes National Park

Innes National Park, on the south-west tip of Yorke Peninsula, showcases some of the most spectacular coastal scenery you're likely to experience.

See the various offshore islands including Chinaman's Hat and discover some of the interpretive trails, camping grounds and heritage accommodation. Spot Western Grey Kangaroos and emus. There are more than 100 bird species such as Mallee Fowl, shy Western Whipbirds, White-bellied Sea-eagles and Ospreys.
