Stirling, SA
Home to some of South Australia’s most beautiful homes, Stirling become popular with Adelaide‘s wealthy residents in the 1800s, who built summer houses to escape the heat of the plains in the late nineteenth century. A walk through Stirling will reveal many of these homes, including some that have been converted to bed and breakfast accommodation.
The tree-lined main street, a riot of colour in both spring and autumn, has a good collection of cafes, restaurants and shops. Many of Stirling’s magnificent ‘English’ gardens are accessible to visitors via the Open Garden Scheme.
