The English explanations are also explained in an easy to understand manner, making it easy to read.It's nice that the land is large haha. It's almost as big as a transplanted wild place.I totally recommend it!

Jeff Seydler: A beautifully restored building. Big nod to the National trust for their efforts for restoring this place to its former glory.

Leann Hammond: Went for a private work dinner. Great food and friendly helpful staff. Gorgeous old building and grounds

Arthur Hurwitz: .The lady who took us on the tour was knowledgeable, friendly and patient, and took the time to explain to us a bit of the history of this state and the man whose home we were touring. But all the staff are friendly and helpful and do their best to make one’s visit an enjoyable and satisfying one.We spent about an hour here all up and enjoyed the visit, but to be honest there isn’t a huge amount to see, and I wouldn’t put it on my must see list when in Adelaide, unless one has a particular interest in history.

Lei Jiang: Ayers house is one of the best historical places in Adelaide. The Victorian house is elaborate and decorated, all of the rooms magnificent and well preserved.

The David Roche Foundation: what do users think?

Tony “knucklehead” Storank: For me it was a reminder of how simple toys can be as special to a young child as any gadget you can get these days and imagination is wild in those early years growing up. I was envious of much of his collection until i found out he had a wealthy family that could spend big on gifts but by the same token shipped him off to boarding schools. Personally id rather play with dirt and stay at home during my formative years. Awesome collection and worth the trip in to see it.

James Yates: This is a must see collection which can only be seen by pre booking a guided tour of the main collection. However walk in exhibitions are held in part of the property. Currently a great, large display of toys from the mid 1800s onwards.Visited on Weekday Wait time No wait Reservation recommended Yes …

He's still in charge - in the huge green malachite urn near the entrance!Too much to even begin to list the interesting and expensive pieces on view. Take your time.The exhibition in the "ex dog kennels" at the time was of quilting. Also very interesting.

anne simon: An absolute joy of a collection, beautifully curated and explained with great knowledge and affection on the guided tour. The individual objects are exquisite, sometimes quirky and often moving; and to see them so lovingly displayed in the home for which they were bought is a rare delight, one which will stay with you long after you have left. This collection alone is worth a visit to Adelaide.

mandyGoTravelling: .The Gallery is renowned for its collections of Australian art, including indigenous Australian and colonial art, from about 1800 onwards. The collection is strong in nineteenth-century works

Jon Turn: Visiting this Art Gallery was a rewarding experience. The gallery houses an impressive range of artworks, with a strong focus on Australian art. The space is thoughtfully organized, and the staff are accommodating. However, some of the exhibits felt somewhat disjointed, lacking thematic coherence. The gallery's historical pieces are particularly noteworthy, but the modern art sections could use more context and explanation. Overall, it's a pleasant outing for art enthusiasts, though improvements could enhance the visit.

Rebecca Chaudhary: Easy to visit by tram and walking. Nice historical looking building. I saw the King Henry viii inspired gallery and it is beautiful. There is gallery shop.

A few of the volunteers are working on a Farely airplane from pictures. I was advised there are only 4 left in the world. This one at Port Adelaide was found in the swamps of Port Pirie.
