In the Adelaide Hills Wine Region, yet just 15 minutes from the Adelaide CBD, historic Mount Lofty House is the premier destination for luxury escapes, overnight accommodation, fine dining, boutique day spa experiences, conference retreats and weddings.
Boasting Hardy’s Verandah Restaurant, Stables Day Spa, and the Adelaide Hills finest accommodation, Mount Lofty House offers all guests an unforgettable experience.
Mount Lofty House was built in 1852 for Arthur Hardy. It was his summer residence, but it also became a venue for the most lavish parties, where Arthur would take great delight in hosting Adelaide’s high society. We invite you to discover the tradition, heritage, and beauty at Mount Lofty House.
In addition to the raft of activities, wineries, producers, and dining on offer here in the Adelaide Hills, Mount Lofty House boasts a range of signature experiences. These include the heritage Stables Day Spa, our two vineyards, the Heysen Trail and Botanic Gardens, our 165 year old cellar, roasting marshmallows at our campfire or at one of the twelve fireplaces onsite.nnThe newest addition to our guest offer is Hardy’s Verandah Restaurant which opened in February to critical acclaim. This year we have been awarded 3 Chef Hats in the Australian Good Food Guide and named #3 restaurant in South Australia, Best listing of South Australian Wines and a Two Glass rating in the Australian Wine List of the Year Awards, Runner-up best restaurant in regional South Australia by Gourmet Traveller and Best Restaurant at the South Australian Hotel Association Awards.
