Things we love – Summer 2022/23

Looking for a day out that both adults and kids will adore? We love the family zone at Sidewood Estate at Hahndorf.
Featuring swings, climbing ropes and outdoor games, it’s the perfect place to sit back and relax with a glass of Adelaide Hills wine while the kids let off some steam. Oh, and if the adults feel like getting in on the fun, there’s also lawn bowls and pétanque!

There’s no flower that feels more like summer than the sunflower and you can get up close and personal with the stunning blooms at Atkins Farm at Meadows. Owners Monika and Tim McArthur open their farm once a year so visitors can pick their own bunches.

We love this marriage of art and bar! One of the Adelaide Hills’ newest cocktail bars, Alchemy is a collaboration between artist Taylr Jay and the owners of Nairne’s Monte Bello Pizza. It’s open between 12.30–8.30pm every Sunday – the perfect way to
finish the week!

What better way to get into the Christmas spirit than by wandering through one of the several local festive markets? Browse for the perfect gift or soak up the Christmas asthmosphere at the Christkindlmarkt at Hahndorf, the Festive Twilight Market at Mt Barker or the Christmas Twilight Market at Mt Pleasant.
