Stranraer Homestead, Kangaroo Island

Located on a 1290 hectare working sheep station in the centre of Kangaroo Island, this delightful homestead has been immaculately restored to provide four beautiful guest rooms – each decorated and furnished in a warm, romantic style reminiscent of the Victoria era, with polished antique furnishings and rich colours.

The property has been in the Wheaton family since 1911 – and was so named by Robert and Mary Wheaton because Mary’s ancestors resided in Stranraer in Scotland. Today’s owners, Graham and Lyn Wheaton, are the perfect hosts – providing a warm welcome, a special insight into life on their beautiful island home and, perhaps most importantly of all, delicious home-cooked meals (Lyn is a passionate cook and uses local Kangaroo Island products where possible, including herbs and fresh fruit from her own garden).
