Welcome

Carrick Hill - A piece of living history.

Carrick Hill is a generous and gracious gift of Sir Edward and Ursula, Lady Hayward to the people of South Australia. It is a scenic vista of terraces, sweeping lawns, tall hedges, and intimate gardens sprinkled with sculptures and shady trees. All this is wrapped around the magnificent homestead – a home filled with art, flowers and antiques. A home built to welcome guests yet provide comfort. A home built for living and enjoying life. This joie de vivre is part of the magnificent heritage that is Carrick Hill. A joy of art, gardens, food and entertaining passed down from the Haywards to everyone.

Carrick Hill is a living treasure - not a static display. It is alive and growing. It craves company and loves to play host. It is a place to enjoy and interact. People bring it to life and give it purpose. People, food, flowers, art, laughter and music resounded through the home for many years as the Haywards were great entertainers. Now the home continues to welcome visitors and provides facilities for everyone to use from the regal staircase and intimate dining room to the rose garden and elm tree terrace. The perfect venue for your function.
