The dry stone walls that greet you at the entrance to Coodlie Park are one of the many changes that we have made to this special historical homestead.Coodlie Park Farm homestead was rebuilt in 1880 from an existing close site on the farm. In the area are a lot of ruins, that could be just a pile of rocks unless you know the history and stories behind each pile. It is a fascinating look into the history and the heart ache experienced by the early pioneers.

On a guided tour we can take you to an old historical homestead that was once part of the original stock route. Camp out under the stars in a swag and truly experience the beautiful Eyre Peninsula at it's best!

We hope you enjoy our site and we look forward to seeing you at Coodlie Park.
