点评:This gentle old place now has its very own AIRPORT style function centre and cafe. What a design and funding disaster. It is aesthetically an anathema to poor old Carrick Hill mansion. It is stark white. It has low ceilings and you may as well have your wedding at the Adelaide Airport for atmosphere. It is not what you are expecting when arriving at any historic garden and house. As you approach from the car park, the designers did not think to screen the "roof hardware" so that is all adding to the visual insult that this monster throws at Carrick Hill. It was way over priced too for the cheap nasty product they got. The view from the glary hot sunny cafe outdoor area.....well.....the view from Adelaide Airport is better and not cluttered by the vertical venetian blind effect of the stark white railings. At least they could have provided glass ballustrades for all those millions. What an aussault on the senses. No longer will we be able to seek refuge under the old oak tree with coffee and cake, next to the giant hedge. Refuge from the visual and auditory hardness of our world.
