More About Anne's Dugout Bed and Breakfast:
Anne's Dugout B&B is located close to Coober Pedy's main street. Like the bedrooms, the kitchen and loungeroom were hand-dug, giving the entire dugout a unique feel. Innkeeper Anne Johnson knows a lot about local history, and her partner Joe is an experienced opal miner. They can provide a lot of local color during your stay.
