Is this Australias cutest rural escape? [Video]

A Port Elliot property allows you to get back to nature in style in the heart of the beautiful Fleurieu Peninsula.

Peter and Carolyn Meznar bought the property in 2000, as a getaway and a place to unwind from the rigours of running their Gawler-based business, converting some existing hay sheds on the property into a picture-perfect cabin.

It was a place they enjoyed as a holiday destination until 2016, when they decided to call the picturesque property home.

“I had a friend who was a tradie and we worked on it together and it was something that evolved over the build – we really designed it to capture those views and also really give it that inside-out kind of feel,” Mr Meznar says.

“As soon as you drive up the driveway you get a feeling of instant relaxation.
