An Australian feudal estate |
Wentworth Rd Vaucluse Sydney, NSW 2030 +61 2 9388 7922 http://www.hht.net.au |
The combination of grand, gothic-style house, outbuildings, harbour views and twelve hectares of formal gardens and grounds places Vaucluse House high on Sydney's must see list. Dating from 1803, it was later extended by William Charles Wentworth- father of the Australian constitution. The interiors have been restored to the period when he lived here with his wife and numerous children (1827-53 and again in 1861-62) and include many objects, which belonged to the family. The adjoining Tearooms are also worth a visit. Admission for Adults is AUD7, children AUD3, concession AUD3 and family AUD17. Review © 2009, Wcities |
