 Elizabeth Farm, a rare example of an early Australian colonial bungalow built in 1793 for John and Elizabeth Macarthur, pioneers of the Australian wool industry. Elizabeth Farm  is Australia’s oldest surviving homestead.  The homestead's deep shaded verandahs overlook a beautiful recreated colonial garden containing trees from the first years of settlement  including Australia's oldest European olive tree.
