Elizabeth Farm was commenced in 1793 and contains part of the oldest surviving European building in Australia. Built as the home of John and Elizabeth Macarthur, it was the birthplace of the Australian wool industry and was an important social, political and cultural centre.
With its deep, shady verandahs Elizabeth Farm became the prototype for the Australian homestead. The interiors contain reproductions of furniture, portraits and objects belonging to the Macarthurs, allowing a 'hands-on' experience of early 19th century life. Elizabeth Farm is situated in a recreated 1830s garden and contains early plants from the Macarthurs' time.
There are no inhibiting room barriers with visitors allowed free access to all areas. The Tearooms are open 11am to 3pm for light meals and refreshments.
