The Prairie Hotel, Parachilna

Where the outback meets the ancient Flinders Ranges, the Prairie Hotel in Parachilna stands as one of Australia’s most iconic locations.

Now guided by second-generation custodians Lachie Fargher and partner Ellie Gorringe, it offers a front-bar atmosphere you will talk about long after you have left. Expect the unexpected, from surreal sunsets on the front verandah to spotting the occasional celebrity at the bar.

Home to the Parachilna Brew Project, poured fresh onsite, and known for a seasonal menu featuring Indigenous and regional produce, the Prairie also offers thoughtfully designed, sustainable accommodation nestled quietly into the landscape and crafted to tread lightly on this ancient outback country.

Anchored to the nationally significant Ediacaran fossil story at nearby Nilpena, the Prairie is perfectly positioned as your base for Flinders Fringe events.
