The historical event space for weddings, corporate functions, conferences and elegant events known as Ayers House ,holds a special place in the hearts of South Australians.
Mmore than a treasured icon, it is a home filled with 160 years of memories. South Australia’s Central Man Sir Henry Ayers was an illustrious and renowned man about town, Premier of the State seven times, Cabinet Minister 11 times and involved in many of the state’s institutions ‘Mr’ became ‘Sir’ in 1872 when Henry was knighted for his government’s role in bringing the overland telegraph service from Darwin to Adelaide opening communication with England, a vital link for the fledgling colony. The house was the centre of Adelaide society for thirty years.
Henry famously gave twice yearly parties in September and October with dancing in his Ballroom, coloured lighting festooning the trees and wines carefully selected from his cellar. After Sir Henry's passing Ayers House passed through many a different occupations until June 1973 when Ayers House opened to acclaim with a fine dining restaurant and bistro. Visited by British Royalty, Princess Anne and serving Queen Elizabeth II it quickly became the place to be seen in Adelaide. A full silver service restaurant became a regular haunt for high society until the mid 90’s.
The magnificent Victorian styled glass conservatory extension, added in the mid-80’s, extended the bistro from the Coach House and stables into the gardens – still many Adelaidian’s claim “Paxton’s” as their favourite restaurant. A favourite for business (long) lunches, birthdays, anniversaries and, of course, weddings.
Today the tradition started by Sir Henry Ayers of lavish parties and dancing continues in style. His legacy is more than just bricks and beautiful spaces, it’s a house built for having fun! Your celebration will add to Ayers House’s illustrious history.
