Seafield Tower History Circa 1876

By the mid-1880s, the sand dunes of Glenelg's esplanade had long given way to the summer residences of the prominent and wealthy of South Australia. Previously known as Albert Parade, and then Seawall, South Esplanade was once a promenade of magnificent Victorian mansions and summer gardens. With time, these mansions slowly began to occupy land beyond the dunes morphing Glenelg's streets into a suburb of character and charm.

State Heritage-listed Seafield Tower was the first of its kind built along the esplanade. It was designed as two self-contained, 15 room summer residences for Sir Henry Ayers and Sir Thomas Elder, when both were in their late fifties. Ayers made his fortune from the Burra Copper Mines that secured the wealth and future of the colony of South Australia. Uluru - Ayers Rock in the Northern Territory is named in his honor. Elder was a pastoralist, businessman, philanthropist and politician. Ayers inhabited the northern side and Elder the southern. Each residence had a separate staircase to the tower, but the landing was communal.

Adelaide's Premier Seaside Location - Glenelg Beach

Bayside Glenelg draws families to its long, sandy beach and the Beach house amusement center, with waterslides, rides and arcade games. The Bay Discovery Centre in the 1870s Town Hall has local history exhibits including a vintage swimwear collection, and dolphin-spotting cruises cast off from nearby Holdfast Marina. Laid-back pubs, organic cafes, global eateries and indie boutiques give the area a trendy vibe.

The Accommodation offer - a historic grand restoration!

Pigeon Haven
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Good location is the only thing going for this property.There were pigeons living in the ceiling and mating all night long which keeps you awake.There was no cover over the old inoperable exhaust fan in the bathroom, so dust and fine bits of their droppings were on the shower floor each morning.The kitchen floor was so dirty, my feet stuck to the floor.I used a wet tissue to clean a couple of the extra sticky spots.The tissue was completely black afterwards, so I decided to leave a pair of rubber thongs just for using to access the kitchen amenities.The room was a bit stuffy, but when I opened one window, there were pigeon droppings everywhere. The smell was unpleasant, so I had to close it again.The bottle of Rose left on the table was oxidised and not drinkable.There were only 2 spare toilet rolls, I was staying for a week.When I requested more, I was told that is the set amount left with the "starter package" no matter how long the stay.So I had to purchase more.Would not stay here again.

Great location
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was awesome. Beautiful heritage building that has been renovated. Very clean and tidy but basic unit. Parking was close and good. Unit 6 overlooks the carpark and has no outside seating. Administration did my head in!! I couldn't print the rental agreement and got hounded daily with 4 msg and emails. It said Tea and coffee was there in the cupboard but nothing was there. I would stay there again but would only book room 3 or 5. Close to all the amenities, food, entertainment and across the path from the beach and great walking track.
