Unique West End Brewery horse stabling barn in the Adelaide Hills | House in Birdwood
1 Bedroom House in Talunga, Birdwood
Welcome to Stables on Eight. We hope you enjoy our little piece of history in the hills. Established in the 80's, the barn has undergone numerous renovations and restorations. We have tried our best to keep the building in its original state, placing emphasis on its history as a horse stabling facility. The barn is spacious, unique and the perfect place to unwind. Set on 40 acres, Stables on Eight was once home to the incredible team of draft horses owned by the West End Brewery.
West End Brewery opened in 1859 in Adelaide. To ensure the safe delivery of beer around the city, a carriage pulled by a team of Clydesdales horses were used. To keep this tradition alive, West End Brewery continued to keep a team of Clydesdale horses here at Stables on Eight for major promotional events, shows and historical events. The horse lived on the property with their trainer for a number of years. The barn and stabling facilities were built solely to house the horses and tack.
Stables on Eight encapsulates history, architecture, space and a rural feel. Built in the 80's, the building boasts intricate stone masonry, exposed beams, lighting and attached stables.
Featuring separate living and bedroom areas, it is the perfect place for exploring the Adelaide Hills.
