Carrick Hill

Gardens are beautiful and the kids enjoyed the storybook trail. Plenty of scenic spots for a picnic. The house is also worth a tour especially if you're into art.

Awesome views. Carrick Hill is very well maintained. The story book trail is great for young and old. The only complaint I have is that the story book trail isn't really wheelchair friendly

What a gorgeous look out, first thing in the morning less than 20 minutes out. For a gorgeous veiw, brilliant walking trails

The entrance was a little hidden, but we found it. Plenty of Parking available and definitely worth a look see.

The grounds are free to enjoy and a great place for a picnic or BBQ and the manor has been recently renovated and has some interesting artwork and gallery. Cafe and gift shop also onsite.

This place has immaculate gardens with a beautiful story book trail for the children and adults to enjoy. I went on a overcast day with light showers and still enjoyed this amazing place. Pack a picnic and enjoy the amazing beauty.

Loved the views around the house. We took photos almost everywhere. My daughter loves the place even though there were no playgrounds on site. It was raining when we went there but the experience was still sensational.

Entry fee to the house is worth it. The house still feels lived in and the dining room is stunning. Kids really loved the storybook trail and running around the gardens.

The gardens around this magnificent old building are simply magical. It's a great place to bring kids. There are some animal statues, made of corrugated iron, tiny houses, interesting plant arrangements and lots of rare birds around. If you have some time, you can get a tour of the house inside too (paid for adults) and see an amazing, old staircase, brought from England back in the day (still don't know how they managed to build a whole house around it). All in all, a great place to visit with family on a nice, sunny day.

Wonderful visit. The guide was informative about the original owners and how the building and gardens were established. Well worth the visit. Will go back to spend more time in the gardens.

Carrick Hill is simply phenomenal. I could gush all day about the house and gardens. The tour was easily one of the best I've ever been on. It was so informative and enjoyable, and I can't wait to come back next year once the staff areas are renovated!

Carrick Hill is a beautiful spot for a walk or to look over the art and history of the estate.
Unfortunately cafe staff were unable to cope with the visitors and we had to wait over 40 minutes for our 2 x coffees.scones with jam and cream were well digested before our coffee arrived.

Mothers day lunch was delicious. Beef was a little dry but besides that fantastic food. Portion size was a little smaller then I would have liked but I am a big eater. Thoroughly enjoyed my dessert aswell absolutly delicious raspberry shortbread!

Maybe it's the time of the year, it isn't as beautiful as I imagine it to be. The Children's garden was fun but to pay $17 to enter the house was a bit too pricey. For $17, I was expecting to see more things or they lived that time but only 2 bedrooms were furnished.

This house is magnificent. I really loved the gardens and the tranquility of sitting having coffee and cake whilst looking at the skyline of Adelaide. I would recommend visiting, especially if you love flowers and grand old houses. This was one place I really enjoyed in Adelaide.
