Love gives every gift whereby we long to live
"Love takes every gift, and nothing back doth give."
Love unlocks the lips that else were ever dumb:
"Love locks up the lips whence all things good might come."
Love makes clear the eyes that else would never see:
"Love makes blind the eyes to all but me and thee."
Love turns life to joy till nought is left to gain:
"Love turns life to woe till hope is nought and vain."
Excerpt from Echoes of Love's House from Poems by the Way (1891)
WHO WE ARE
OUR STORY
Nestled in the Adelaide Hills, just 20 minutes up the Freeway, amongst picturesque Heritage Gardens lies historic Auchendarroch House. Originally named The Oakfield Hotel, Auchendarroch derives its origins from the Scottish-Gaelic term ‘holy place of the oaks’. Built in 1860, the House saw its first redevelopment in 1878 when it was purchased by Robert Barr Smith and now under the Wallis Family it has become the majestic, lovingly restored venue it is today.
The Wallis Family opened Auchendarroch House in 2003 with one goal in mind: providing an enjoyable dining experience to the Mount Barker area. Thanks to our experience and dedication, we’ve managed to become masters of the craft, providing dishes that are fresh, hearty and simply unforgettable.
A unique entertainment experience for locals and tourists alike, Auchendarroch House, Oak & Iron Tavern and our award winning Heritage Gardens are open for everyone to enjoy.
Watch the seasons change in the stunning heritage garden while you enjoy the many events Auchendarroch House has to offer over the year. From Garden Tours, Australia Day on the Lawns, Mother’s Day lunch, Melbourne Cup, Movie Themed Dinners, Christmas Lunch, Outdoor Cinema or your own specifically designed event, Auchendarroch House has the experience and spaces to host a perfect event.
