Watching a devoted father emu guide his little family through native grasses and open South Australian landscapes is one of those unforgettable moments that makes you pause — a reminder of how incredible our wildlife really is. These gentle giants are often seen across regional South Australia, and yes, even within a 50-minute drive of Adelaide if you know

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.
