“A quirky 19th-century converted fire station. Consists of three self sufficient apartments all featuring spa baths and one kitted out with fire engine and fun fire-station themed decor. Centrally located within easy walking distance of restaurants, bars and sights. A unique stay.”

Fire Station Inn

Want to inject a bit of colour into your Adelaide sojourn? A few days at this historic property should do the trick. The old firehouse now consists of three self-contained apartments, each furnished with antiques and memorabilia. A perfect retreat after a busy day exploring Adelaide.
