Carrick Hill gardens, South Australia

The gardens that Ursula planned. Carrick Hill had been the private home of Edward and Ursula Hayward. Both Edward and Ursula came from prominent (read wealthy) South Australian families, Ursula's were pastoralists and landowners and her father gave the couple the land as a wedding gift. They built the house in the years 1937 to 39 and during the same period Ursula planned the garden. Momotaro The statue of Momotaro wasn't one of the Hayward's acquisitions but rather comes from the time that the state government accepted the bequest of the Carrick Hill estate and open it to the public.

The statue is of the character Momotaro (Peach Boy) who set off to d...

Carrick Hill, Adelaide

Looking inside the house The Carrick Hill house and gardens had been closed for a few months with some work happening inside the house and I was curious to see what had changed. The house itself isn't that old, having been built in 1937 to 39, it's what inside the house that makes it historically interesting. The young couple Edward and Ursula Hayward were given the land as a wedding present and then travelled to the UK for a year long honeymoon. It was during their time there they attended a salvage sale of a stately home. Beaudesert House was owned by the Marquess of Anglesey, it had been a Tudor mansion. The house was set to be demolished as the Depression had left the family with huge depts and the house was uneconomical to run. In July 1935 the Haywards had bought the windows, doors, fireplaces, oak panelling and the staircase. It was then all shipped back to Adelaide and an architect who was a family friend set about designing the house around these items, the h...

Great location in the city centre Eurostars uHotel Price In the more expensive range for accomodation in Ljubljana, but not the high end price range, that's for the Grand Union Hotel next door. Price reflects location, large rooms and pool on site. Location Excellent location, an easy 10 minute walk from the bus and train stations, where the airport bus will drop off passengers. It's a 5 minute walk to the square where the three bridges can be found and close to the pedestrian old town. Facilities Large rooms, the hotel has a gym, a wellness centre and an indoor pool with an outside deck which has a fantastic view of Ljubljana Castle. There is a large restaurant where breakfast is served, the heritage Grand Union Hotel is attached and there's access to the restaurants there. Beds with European style single quilts Spacious room with tea/coffee making facilities and water provided. Very spacious bathroom Looking into the restaurant area Indoor pool with outdoor terrace Vi...

Abigwideworld: There's a big wide world out there and I want to see as much of it as possible, is a sentence that I have used over the years to explain why I love to travel so much. I'm fortunate that I've been able to see quite a bit of the world, but there's a lot more to see! This blog is a great way for me to record my travels.
