The Old Government House of South Australia is a historical building which lies in the Belair National Park. It is a tourist attraction and is open to the public on Sundays and public holidays made by a gold coin donation.

Old Government House was the South Australia’s first official vice-regal summer residence (1860-1880), and was used by governors Richard Graves MacDonnell (1855-62) and Dominick Daly (1862-68). It was superseded by a larger summer residence at Marble Hill, built in 1878.
