DESCRIPTION
Details (Known As) Adare Conference Centre (former Dwelling 'Adare')
Registered Name House ('Adare')
Significance 'Adare' is of State heritage significance because of its association with the development of Port Victor as a major tourist resort and its association with the Cudmore family. Designed by Frederick Dancker, 'Adare' is also significant because of the high quality of its design and detailing and its grand scale. It is claimed Dancker was the first to introduce turret roofs into South Australia and the first South Australian to call for the use of reinforced concrete in walls. Dancker was also responsible for the design of the former residence that is now part of the Burnside Memorial Hospital, the Queen Victoria Hospital, St Paul's Lutheran Church at Hahndorf and the Malvern Uniting Church.

Disclaimer

While due care has been taken to ensure that the SA Heritage Places Database accurately reflects the South Australian Heritage Register and listings of Local Heritage Places in Council areas, the State of South Australia does not accept liability for the use of the SA Heritage Database for any purpose. Users should consult the Department for Environment and Water - Heritage South Australia to confirm the listing of State Heritage Places and the Planning and Design Code or their local council for Local Heritage Places.

In the majority of cases, the maps of State Heritage Places on this web site show the footprints of the most significant structures on a registered Place. However, sometimes they simply indicate the complete area of land comprising the Place. Work is proceeding to further refine the mapping of such places. It is also important to note that development control is not limited to the registered structures but extends to their setting and structures nearby (what is termed ‘development affecting’ a State Heritage Place). Hence it is vital that exact details of the listed place and implications for any proposed development be discussed with Heritage South Australia staff, as they cannot be deduced solely from the information on this web site. The inclusion of a place in the SA Heritage Register gives no right of public access. Permission to visit properties must be sought from the owners. The accuracy of the mapping of State Heritage Places is not guaranteed. Please contact Heritage SA ( https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/heritage/sa-heritage-register) if you believe there is an error.
