Carrick Hill

Carrick Hill is fortunate in being one of the few period homes in Australia to survive with its original contents almost completely intact and its grounds undiminished.

It was a centre of stylish living; and friends hold fond memories of ahouse constantly filled with laughter, parties, artists, music, good wine,fine food and dancing; and heady with the scent of masses of flowers.While those days are now gone, Carrick Hill remains as an important example of the lifestyle of two wealthy and cultured Australians of the mid-twentieth century.

So please take the time to browse the site and discover what makes Carrick Hill so special to South Australians. You can read the history of how it came to be, see gorgeous pictures of its gardens and even enjoy paintings from the galleries.
