Exploring Signature's Preferred Retreats in South Australia: Sequoia Lodge & Mount Lofty House
First-Hand Luxury Property Review"Two nights at Sequoia Lodge in the Adelaide Hills simply wasn't enough. On a recent trip to Adelaide, I inspected Signature Preferred properties—Sequoia Lodge and Mount Lofty House & Estate. Now I know why both represent extraordinary additions to any custom Australia luxury itinerary."
Just 25 Minutes from Adelaide into Rolling Wine Country
Located just 25 minutes from Adelaide Airport, the urban landscape quickly gives way to the rolling hills, towering eucalyptus groves, and world-class vineyards of the Adelaide Hills. Guests arrive at the historic Mount Lofty Estate, situated high on the ridge with panoramic vistas across the Piccadilly Valley.
Travelers can choose between the grand, heritage elegance of Mount Lofty House (established in 1852) or the ultra-exclusive, adults-only sanctuary of Sequoia Lodge. Guests residing at Sequoia enjoy full access to both properties, creating an effortless blend of contemporary privacy and historic estate living.
Curated Estate Experiences & Tailored Dining
From the moment you arrive, you feel as though you have stepped onto a private country sanctuary. A dedicated Experiences Manager contacts guests prior to check-in to personalize each day—arranging private guided bushwalking hikes, revitalizing morning yoga, artisan cheese and wine tastings, and behind-the-scenes cellar tours.
Dining at the estate's flagship restaurant, Hardy's Verandah (awarded multiple Chef Hats), showcases the finest seasonal produce and boutique South Australian vintages, paired with service that is intuitive, discreet, and warmly hospitable.
