You know you’re getting old when there are more candles than cake. But I couldn’t give a rat’s because I’ll be celebrating the big four-zero in absolute paradise!
Forget the Maldives, Seychelles, Bahamas and Mauritius, I’m going somewhere far more superior — Copperstone KI.
With magnificent views of Emu Bay from every room, this immaculately designed luxury holiday home is located on five and-a-half acres of private land, only a two-minute walk to one of Kangaroo Island’s most popular stretches of coastline, Emu Bay Beach.

Summer doesn’t get any better than this 11/10 beach house, but it’s not just about bikinis and Aperols. With indoor and outdoor wood fireplaces and underfloor heating in the main living and dining area, you’ll be as snug as a bug in a rug during autumn and winter, too.
Ideal for couples and friends wanting a kid-free weekend, Copperstone KI is the picture perfect setting to laze and graze — and then laze and graze all over again.

Imagine kicking back with a glass of KI Spirits in hand, nibbling on a platter full of local produce without a worry in the world.
On the flip side, you can, of course, bring the munchkins like I will. I couldn’t possibly have a birthday without my babies… and my parents… and my husband! And why not, there’s plenty of room. With four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms and a fancy bathtub overlooking incredible views of KI, it would be unkind if I didn’t invite everyone.

I can just see my kids now, living their best lives and transforming into wildlings as they explore the gorgeous property and rub their toes in the sand.
As I blow out the candles on my fortieth lap around the sun with my family by my side, I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else in the world.
