About this property
Welcome to the Historic Kapunda School of mines homestay
This delightful 1860s 2 story building is a centrepiece in copper mining history. It not only provides a depth of incredible history, it is also a very comfortable place to rest your head when visiting Kapunda and the surrounding areas such as the Barossa and Clare Valleys.
Like many historic properties the Kapunda school of mines residence has spacious rooms, lofty ceilings, character and charm combined with luxury and convenience and with 2 double bedrooms can sleep up to 4 people very comfortably.
Kick back in the leather recliner lounge suite in front of the big screen smart TV or opt for the big dining/living room overlooking the Tarlee ranges.
Take advantage of the fully equiped kitchen or enjoy an outdoor BBQ sitting in the fresh air on the balcony. If your not in cooking mode there are 6 dining out food options within 200 metres
The home has been thoughtfully and beautifully decorated and includes lots of interesting artifacts of the mining era and will make you feel right at home . Some other added features include;
Ducted Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning
Premium 5 star Linen and bedding
Queen Beds
Complimentary internet
Secure Parking
2 big screen Smart TVs
Outstanding convient Location
and much more
About Kapunda; Perfectly located between the Barossa and Clare Valleys and only 1 hour from Adelaide.
This delightful building is centrally located and you have all the local history at your door step. So much to see locally and many famous names will confront you such as Sir Sydney Kidman, the worlds largest known private land owner of the day (the cattle king), Charles Bagot and France Dutton (Kapunda Copper mines), Sir Jenkins Coles (the first premier) and mother Mary McKillop to name a few.
If you have an interest in wine there are over 130 wineries being a combination of large corporate and small boutique within a short distance to explore.
We look forward to you enjoying the benefits and features of the Kapunda School of Mines homestay soon
