A fairytale gothic hotel hidden in the Stirling hills
Hidden behind dense garden in the hills above Stirling, Thorngrove Manor is unlike anywhere else in South Australia. A flight of fancy in stone, timber and slate, the hotel is a riot of turrets, spires, hidden staircases and antique-filled suites that has drawn comparisons to a storybook castle.
Guests are famously left to their own devices, with discreet service and a strong emphasis on privacy and theatre. It's a destination in its own right rather than a base for sightseeing, and it has hosted its share of well-known names over the decades.
For a special-occasion stay with genuine character, there's nothing else quite like it in the Adelaide Hills.
