Run to Paradise

This trusted organisation in Adelaide’s north-east is sharing its must-visit destinations.

Celebrating 69 years of business in 2025, Paradise Mazda is a family-owned success story with the local community at the heart of everything it stands for. It’s the kind of business that will sell a newlywed couple a car and still be working with the family 20 years later, when the kids come back to buy one for themselves. The team at Paradise Mazda has nearly 70 years clocked up on the roads, cruising around in their new and used vehicles. So we asked owners Jeff, Jenny and Ben Neale to share their must-visits in this corner of SA.

Gorge Wildlife Park

Start your adventure at Gorge Wildlife Park, a family favourite just a short drive from the Paradise Mazda showroom! It’s the ideal spot for a day out, where kids and adults can get up close with native Australian wildlife. From kangaroos and koalas to emus and wallabies, there’s plenty to see and learn.

: “That’s why we get up ever day, to work with our team and serve our customers the best way we can.”

Rezz Hotel and Linear Park Walking Trail

Unwind at the Rezz Hotel, a local favourite that combines classic Aussie pub vibes with delicious food and a great atmosphere. Enjoy a cold drink and a meal with friends or family, then take a leisurely stroll along the nearby River Torrens, following the beautifully maintained walking paths of Linear Park.

Glen Ewin Estate

For those who appreciate a good drop, Glen Ewin Estate should be next on your list. Take a tour of the grounds, indulge in a wine-tasting session and enjoy the stunning views. Or, indulge in something a little bit different, like a picnic on the grounds with a hamper provided by Glen Ewin Estate, or fig picking during the summer and autumn harvest.

Kersbrook Hill Wines & Cider

If you’re up for a scenic drive, venture a little further along the windy roads to Kersbrook Hill Wines & Cider. It’s not just about the wine, even though it is delicious. Kersbrook Hill is also known for its tasty wood oven pizzas, making it the ideal spot to enjoy a relaxed lunch. The Neale family and the extended Paradise Mazda team are ready to welcome you inside, whatever the reason — a new car, a used car, a quality car service or, simply just to chat about their legacy and the community around them.
