History Friday | Peterborough, South Australia (formerly Petersburg) 🖨️
🖨️ Step back in time at the historic Peterborough Times Printing Office, built in 1887 and now lovingly operated as a working museum by the dedicated History Group. Set out exactly as it was throughout the 20th century until 2001, the print shop features original presses, inks, tools, paper stock, old templates and thousands of printed items. What was once layered with grease and grit has now been carefully cleaned, restored and preserved for future generations — a true lab

Benvenuti from Italy.
We were delighted to welcome our lovely international guests from Italy last week — they even took the time to write a beautiful message in our guest book, in Italian. It’s always such a joy to welcome visitors from around the world and help them feel truly at home here in South Australia. These guests arrived on a late international flight, but that was no problem at all — we’d already arranged their personal check-in at 11.30pm, ensuring they could settle comfortably after

Here’s a little wildlife wonder for your day...
Meet the charming and uniquely Australian echidna. Did you know this spiny little fellow isn’t a hedgehog or a porcupine, but one of only a handful of mammals in the world that lay eggs? They also play a vital role in our environment by turning over soil and leaf litter — helping native plants grow and keeping our ecosystems healthy. At Adelaide Style Accommodation, we’re passionate about being environmentally friendly and celebrating the incredible wildlife that makes South

History Friday – The Stories Hidden in the Details
At Adelaide Style Accommodation, we love discovering little pieces of history that make South Australia such a fascinating place to explore. ️ Recently, we came across an old door with a lock that immediately caught our attention. Taking a closer look, we noticed a small, faded round imprint on the latch — and with a bit of curiosity (and research!), uncovered something quite remarkable! Imprinted on the lock were the words “WR Coat of Arms” and “JAS Carpenter Patentee No. 60
