About Piccadilly
Piccadilly is a small town nestled in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia, approximately 20 kilometres south-east of the Adelaide CBD within the Adelaide Hills Council area. With a 2021 Census population of 405, it is a quiet, tightly-knit community set in a picturesque valley covering around 4 square kilometres. The locality sits at an elevated position in the hills, offering a cool-climate environment distinct from the Adelaide plains below.
The Piccadilly Valley has a long history as a market gardening centre, producing fruit and vegetables for Adelaide and beyond for many decades; much of the valley now supports premium cool-climate viticulture, contributing to the highly regarded Adelaide Hills wine region. The area is home to the Woodhouse Scout Centre, which hosts school camps and outdoor activities throughout the year. Bus routes 822 and 866 provide connections to the Adelaide CBD, though most residents rely on private vehicles for daily errands. The tranquil, tree-lined character and proximity to Mount Lofty and surrounding walking trails make Piccadilly an appealing choice for those seeking a rural Hills lifestyle within easy reach of the city.
Piccadilly falls under postcode 5151 and is governed by the local council Council (LGA). For state elections, residents vote in the Heysen electorate.
