Luxury Holidays At The Frames

Overlooking the Murray River, the Frames offers an exclusive and unique place to stay. Generous space and exceptional levels of privacy sit side-by-side in a quintessentially Australian outback landscape, where you’ll be surrounded by the lush, natural bush and myriad birdlife that make their home on the river. The Murray River is the longest river in Australia and its lifeblood. Winding through three states it supports a diverse array of flora and fauna, including the largest River Red Gum Forest in the world. It is an ever-changing environment, creating a natural habitat for native wildlife including kangaroos, koalas and the cute but definitely not cuddly echidna. The retreats are designed with adults in mind and offer seclusion and style in a beautiful setting. In-retreat dining showcases the exceptional local produce whilst a carefully curated selection of experiences enhances any stay here. Step aboard a beautifully restored 100-year-old gondola for a sunset cruise or experience the river from a local’s perspective with a guided tour through the creeks and wetlands. Visit local vineyards, breweries and a gin distillery or get down to the water level and glide through the landscape on a kayaking tour.

Climate

South Australia is the perfect place to escape the chill. It has mild winters and warm, dry summers. Kangaroo Island, like most of South Australia has a Mediterranean climate - with a warm but rarely uncomfortable summer days and a short wet winter. Remember to pack a jacket for cool evenings, year round.

Adelaide

As the capital city of South Australia, Adelaide is a vibrant cultural hub with plenty to see and experience. Framed by scenic parklands and the River Torrens, plus boasting a skyline of both old and new architecture, the city is known for its exceptional food, wine and art. Tourists can picnic in the parklands or take a paddle boat cruise, seek out the Central Market or perhaps visit the Art Gallery of South Australia. Wine lovers on the other hand, can take a self-guided tour of the National Wine Centre of Australia, followed by a stroll to the bustling shopping and restaurant districts. Whilst keen gardeners are spoilt with the Adelaide Botanic Garden, tranquil Japanese Himeji Gardens, native bushlands and dramatic landscapes of Waterfall Gully, plus Cleland Conservation Park, sports enthusiasts will no doubt be fans of the manicured Adelaide Oval. This is a city filled with outdoor attractions and whether you are en route to the Barossa Valley winelands or heading to the coastal wildlife attraction of Kangaroo Island, Adelaide is a great city to explore as part of your Australia journey.

Adelaide
Barossa Attractions

The weekly farmers’ market showcases plentiful Germanic offerings, local seasonal produce, coffee, flowers and music – held every Saturday in a big farm shed. For a panoramic view of Barossa’s glorious countryside of sweeping valleys and huge eucalyptus trees, drive to Mengler’s Hill Lookout. Close by is Kaiserstuhl Conservation Park, offering views of the Barossa Ranges and a network of excellent walks such as the Wallowa Hike (4.7km one-way) and the Stringybark Hike (2km loop). Those here for the wine can watch coopers make barrels at the Keg Factory and visit the many wineries for tours and tastings. Book ahead for the likes of Penfolds, a name that’s a legend here, if not across the world!

Barossa Attractions
Kangaroo Island

Enjoy a twilight beach walk at Seal Bay Conservation Park for a close encounter of snoozing Australian sea lions. Or a bushwalk through Flinders Chase – one of South Australia’s top national parks, where you’ll find unusual rock formations and lofty sugar-gum forests. There’s also a farmers’ market on the island, brimming with homemade bakes, olive oil, eggs, dairy produce, fresh seafood, island wine and buskers – day-trippers hop over by ferry just for the market, so it must be good! Another place to pick up island produce is the Clifford’s Honey Farm, a little out of the way but worth seeking out for scrumptious honey ice-cream, honey-infused drinks, biscuits, mead, candles and cosmetics.
